    -1 Merely expunging felonies after a while would not make much sense RPly or OOCly. Maybe in the future there could be an option to apply for a government pardon from your crimes if you spend a long time without committing and being arrested for ANY crimes (including reckless operation from speed cameras). Possibly after 1 - 3 OOC months of staying clean you could have a chance to apply for it.

    No one is saying just wash it all away. This post is literally discussing the possibility to apply to have your criminal record expunged and recieve a pardon from the government. Why would anyone just get a clean slate over a period of time for no reason. That would kill the whole reason to try and remain a clean citizen. That's also why getting a pardon would be a one time deal. No third chances at all.

    I like the idea of expungement of non-violent crimes to a certain extent, but as Steel mentioned, IRL it's not an easy process - you just don't walk into your city hall building and change your name. There's a court process, you'll most likely have to go through some parole & rehabilitation process and complete that properly, then court hearings where a judge determines if you qualify for it or not. But to do all this, we need a court system - which we don't have right now.

     

    Most pardons and expungement at least in my state are give by the state governor. With very little legal involved. You have to submit character witnesses that are credible. It also requires alot of paperwork and patience and isn't guaranteed.

    I used to kill a cop every time my faction evaded and their car got disabled, but now through character development I should have a clear criminal record and be able to legally possess a firearm license. Does that sound right to you?

    No not at all what we are trying to say. Of course you wouldnt give someone with a murder conviction an expungement that would be completely unrealistic. However there are other felonies including some violent that you should be able to ultimately redeem yourself from and move on with better character development and better storylines. I personally know about 6 people in my day to day life that have felony convictions and have recieved pardons from the state with full gun rights reinstated.

  4. I just think that if we are rping real life scenarios here you should be able to apply for expungement and a pardon from the government. This would allow you to be employed by all of the career choices and also give you your gun rights back. I'm not saying it should be a sure thing but there should be a process to apply with stipulations set based on character history. It could also be a one and done thing. If you get a second chance and break the law again then you shouldn't be able to get those rights back.
