Sexual assault is non-violent? These all sound like things that would reasonably disqualify drivers.

I disagree completely. Just what do you think the people you interact with every day are like when you don't see them? This is puritanism, nothing else.

There's a documentary about the reality of prostitution called "Very Young Girls" that I suggest everyone watch. It dispels a lot of the myths around the realities of prostitution in America. By and large it is the manipulation of underage girls who end up victimized by their pimps, their johns, and society in general.

I'm not sure I'd want to employ someone who's got a history of whipping out their nob and shaking it at people in shopping malls.
