My uncles were arrested so many times that cops would immediately over react to anyone with the same last name (they liked to get drunk and fight the cops). They ended up with similar weapons bans. As a kid i thought for sure they'd end up life in prison at some point. Instead they both eventually turned their lives around. My uncle is now able to get his PAL and he is looking forward to learning how to hunt.

People can change, although access and use of rehab resources can definitely help.
