Re: [BDSM-LegalIssues] Re: New book -- good but disturbing

I understand, Jay's original comment... but unless there are specific discriminatory legal issues involved, I would agree an employer is free to hire or fire anyone he pleases. I have found that it's usually the deception about the arrests (conviction or not), not the arrests (or convictions) themselves that lead an employer to not hire or terminate.

We all make choices, some good, some bad. We live with the consequences of those choices. Employers make choices about who would best fit the situation based upon the choices an applicant has made. I make choices about who I am going to associate with. We all do. That is life.

Huh? I thought the discussion was arrests not convictions. If you are
not convicted how can you have a criminal history?

Jay is not arguing for hiring people that have been convicted (not at
this time anyway)
He is arguing for hiring people that have been arrested then released.
