[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I was in the sandwich I often stayed at my MIL's house in rural Maryland until past midnight, visiting with her, and then drove home through the night. It took me a couple of hours to get home. Sometimes I stopped at a Dunkin Donuts for a coffee, and sometimes I stopped at a Sheetz. I did this once a week. She was the last of her line in her town, and she depended on me a lot. Eventually she became too frail to stay in her home on her own, but I made this trip for years. As a woman, driving in the middle of the night and needing to use a bathroom, I will not stop at a Sheetz if I think a former rapist is manning the store. It's crazy to think the government thinks it's reasonable to force people traveling at night to worry about whether or not a Sheetz employee is a threat to their safety. I had children at home who needed me. I had a MIL who needed me. I had elderly parents who needed me. What happens when women like me run into a criminally minded employee? Who do I sue if I become a crime victim because a criminal was working at a 24-hour convenience store? In the years I did stop at a Sheetz, it never crossed my mind that there might be criminally-minded emplyees eyeing me as a potential mark. Seriously, do the good folks in the government not have wives, mothers, sisters who sometimes drive at night? Mostly women assume the role of caring for elderly relatives, and that often entails some sort of travel. We're doing the best we can, juggling our immediate families and our elderly relatives. We don't need to worry about this on top of everything else.[/quote] That’s a lot of drama. 1) people are convicted for a wide variety of crimes. Not all crimes are violent. 2) Rapists are the LEAST likely to be convicted for their crimes so you have zero reason to think that Sheetz only hiring non-felons makes you one tiny bit safer. It does not. [/quote]
