Criminals

            There are so many people out there that have a hard time making an honest life. Most that are weak willed end up going the easy route that leads to criminal activities. True stealing or even selling drugs can make you pretty easy money usually. What people don't seem to realize though is going this so called easy route is actually more selfish in the end. When you get yourself in to criminal activities you're destroying not only your own families lives but the lives of the victims of your crimes. Some even get several brushes with the law before they are finally caught. After the first scare with the police you would think that would be enough to get them to go back to the straight and narrow. Yet some are just to thick headed to get the hint.
           Those criminals out there though that don't even care about the people they hurt are the worst. Especially those that are career criminals. In my opinion you're just saying I'm making a career of hurting the people around me and going to jail. By being a career criminal you aren't successful in anything besides causing harm to a lot of innocent people. There has never been an actually successful career criminal. Everyone of them have eventually gotten caught and put away in prison to rot. In a way those criminals that start out in poverty you're saving it's better to have your freedom taken away that fight to make your life better. It's better to be locked up with other dangerous people that could potentially hurt you or even kill you. Like I have said in a previous blog entry it's better to work for what you have. If you feel that your life is so bad that you need to become a criminal to supposedly make your life better.
            Sure your life could be a better for a split second as a criminal but that tiny moment isn't worth all the trouble that comes with it. You're now a criminal which means that you're going to have a hard time with society actually trusting you. How can any one really trust someone that's stolen from a person's home, beat up a person that couldn't defend themselves or even taking another person's life. If you even manage to get out of jail in your life time then you have to fight to show society that you have changed. Finding a job alone would be extremely difficult because most companies are against hiring felons. Then there is even those that have children that were taken from them because of their criminal activity. Your child is now labeled the child of a criminal and most people tend to think that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. These poor kids get stereotyped in thinking that they aren't any better than their criminal parent. Quite a few even become criminals as well because when you're told something enough times you eventually believe it. 
            It's never worth becoming a criminal no matter what your situation is. Whether you're doing drugs to numb whatever pain your feeling or you're just trying to make your life better financially. It's never a good idea because in the end you'll just destroy your life and possibly even end it.
