Not all hardened drug crazed criminals

So there is more to this than meets the eye, just for the hell of it I did a search on one of O's pardons. A Mr. Ronald Foster from Beaver Falls , Pa. aged 66. He lived 45 years before he found out he was a convicted felon. His crime was mutilating coins while he was in the USMC back in 1963. He paid a $20.00 fine back then and got a years probation. His story is really kind of funny. Following this crime he went on to become a productive member of society. Take a minute to read his story.

One needs to parse these things on a case by case basis. I will reserve the right to not have a great deal of sympathy for those that deal in drugs.

Thanks for the link WCH.
