How do you feel about illegal immigrants easily obtaining jobs, but felons with minor offenses get turned down

Illegal aliens can be given **** jobs and treated like slaves because being illegal chances are they wont complain or at least not too much. You on the other hand have broken the law and therefore can never be trusted. Never mind you paid your debt. When will people learn that EVERYTHING in the US is a felony. But you are correct you should have the rights to these jobs and I think that maybe you should become a whistle blower. Stop letting people be blind to the state of their own citizens before you let a coward who has run from their countryand their responsibilities take our homes and jobs

Good question. Maybe you were not persistent enough? Did you have to explain everywhere that you are a felon? I doubt it, becasue I know of many jobs where you don't get asked anything. And these are the jobs illegals do. You aimed much higher than an illegal, that's my answer.

let's get one thing straight...a felony is NEVER a "minor offense"...that's a misdemeanor...so if someone is a convicted felon, the crime was not "minor"...and if an employer chooses not to employ you because of your criminal record, that is their choice, and has absolutely nothing to do with employing illegal immigrants... ...next time around, keep your record clean and this won't be an issue for you...

How can you be a felon for a minor offence? Well, I don't mean to sound rude, but I'm sure you can also get hired for the jobs that the illegals get hired for, for the same pay... Not that I'm saying you should... If you paid your debt to society, then you should be allowed to work in jobs you are qualified for.

LOL This is interesting...in my opinion, and keep in mind this is strictly opinion, an illegal alien does the wrong thing and gets a job paid under the table...an ex-con does the right thing and tries to get work in an 'honest' fashion. Do you get where I am going here? I'm almost inclined to trust an ex-con over an immigrant.

felons can work under the table just as easy as Felons.

good

No convicted felon has a "petty charge". A minor crime is called a misdemeanor. Learn to spell.

Listen, BLACK or white, a convited felon is a convicted felon. You did the crime, and now you want it easy. did you think about it before commiting the crime. I have nothing against you, but to company yourself to a person from another country, I think not. Most people who come from other countries (I don't say they don't commit crimes) they come to WORK. When your fellow americans, when they showed up in north america, did they show their SSN or visa or passaport to the native americans. here is the answer NO!!! Your ancestors build this country, nor did columbos discover this country, guess what there was people already here, they did not need to be discovered. So get a cup of JOE and wake up. I have nothing against folks like you or criminals for that matter, You are an illegal, the white folks are illegal, the native americans offered the immigrants food, in returned the illegal immigrants KILLED THEM.
