Recidivism is defined as the rate at which inmates return to prison within three years of release. We're not talking about some guy who spent the night in county lock-up or stole some candy as a kid.  I'm saying that I don't have time for any of this crap and wouldn't take a chance on ANYONE who has a flipped-coin chance of doing it again (54.6%)..and that's just the 3-year recidivism rate.  There's no way to put this in the questionaire except to say, "Are you an ex-con?"  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />54.6%..and yes, that includes priests <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />jh..</blockquote>
