that has been abused.
that was betrayed.
that was once unpopular.

  1. Its hard to leave behind a felony past even if you ve already served your time. To be judged and discriminated against and labled a trouble maker is a disability these days. Not only does it makr it harder to find a job, but now its even hard to find a place to rent an apartment, for example person x got a felony for drugs at an early age, this closes many doors and often causes person x to fall back into a lifestyle of crime
