I'm a criminal and so are you

This article is about how people who are felons are discriminated against because they got caught breaking the law. Michelle Alexander believes that this isn't fair. I agree with her. She says that if you are a felony in this country then they can deny you of some of your rights. They can deny you of your right to vote, automatically, employment,housing, education, public benefits, and food stamps. I Michelle also says that just because you weren't caught breaking the law doesn't mean that your not a criminal you still are. I agree with her about how its not right to take away criminals rights but only to a certain extent i think that if you were accused of killing, robbing, assault or any violent crimes then you maybe you should get some of your rights tooken away but if you where convicted of a crime like smoking weed, or something than small then they should still have their rights because people can change especially if they got convicted in an early age for something. If the person really wants to change and they cant better their education or get a better job or something what are they supposed to do. They will probably most likely continue with the things that got them in trouble in the first place, but only because they don't have anything positive that they can do. Like for instance if a man gets convicted for something and he gets out. He will want to provide for his family but her may not be able to because the law says that he has been restricted o his rights that is really not fair and it should not be so. If everyone was to have their rights tooken because they have done a crime then the U.S would not get anywhere because somebody, once,twice, or even more has broken the law and people will continue doing it. So I agree with Michelle in the point that she was trying to make.
