There's already been so many posts about this case. We're now already on about pg-40 of a
#2 thread by now.
I don't know if I'd have the patience to look around to see if anybody knows the answer to this, but I'll try...
What kind of "background check" do people want realtors to have? And why realtors in particular?
I could understand a "
Have you ever raped someone at gunpoint?" check.
But to me, "background check" means this:
You cant work here and you'd better not even try to ever again...
You had a few DUI's 10-yrs ago!
You got caught trying to grow some weed in the basement when you were in college!
You had the audacity to take up for yourself when somebody tried to beat you up!
You messed around with somebody a couple years younger than you after Senior Prom! (and are on the sex-offender registry for life)
What is a person capable of doing something evil to do?
If they can't work anywhere, they have a lot of time on their hands to think up (and
do) very bad things.
What about people who wouldn't hurt a fly, but happen to be convicted of a
victimless crime?
Even though he was only in high school, his crime indeed had a victim. In real life, that makes him worse than somebody that partied too hard in their youth.
But the eyes law don't really differentiate between those things very much.
