Most folks who say they want to make a change, usually don’t stick to their promises. Lots of folks make mistakes in life and it’s nice to see companies like Cockle give someone like him a second chance. I hope he inspires others to do the same.

I was so thrilled and happy for him, eventhough i had never heard of him before. I had goose bumps while reading the article. I am a physician and like to see and hear inspiring stories. I hope he remains the same and is always grounded and help the countless people behind bars even after he becomes a famous attorney. I read the article about Shon on yahoo.

Stavis Wed, 24 Nov 2010 18:58:51 +0000 http://www.cocklelaw.com/?p=198#comment-7 What an inspiring story, Shon! Do you have a twitter profile where I can be your fan? As a recent grad considering a career in law, struggling to follow my dreams, you have provided a shining example, truly, you are a paragon of virtue. If everyone was like you, I think that Plato would call this world ideal. If each person showed such determination in the face of adversity, we would all achive our dreams, and what a world we’d live in then. If all could reach out and just touch the vast stores of wisdom and knowledge, especially and in particular the very important works on goverment and law, we would all be enlightened citizens of a perfect Republic. Thank you for restoring my faith in humanity and in myself. What an inspiring story, Shon! Do you have a twitter profile where I can be your fan?

The article inspired me to study harder and strive to be the best paralegal I can be. It’s amazing how much he has and is yet to accomplish without attending school. I’m a 2nd year Paralegal student and enjoy reading articles such as this. The law is very empowering while also very slighted nonetheless it is my area of interest in which I can only hope and pray to be a great as Shon. One question, what material would you recommend for a Paralegal in progess who one day may end up in Law School? Also, I’d like to know how you may be reached or do you have a facebook page or something. I’d like to keep up with you and by the way congrats on your marriage and your new bundle of joy.

Thank you, Shon for sharing your story and thank you to Cockle Law for having the good judgement to employ a gifted young man who more than deserves this second chance. There is a bill in congress – HR1529 – The Second Chance Act for Non-violent Ex-Offenders – which permits one time offenders to clear their records and become employable again after meeting certain standards of sustained good behavior. The bill unfortunately is languishing unreviewed for the SIXTH legislative session. Would Mr. Hopwood be interested in helping us support this bill, or some form of it? Contact Support_of_HR1529@yahoogroups.com or http://www.meetup.com/A-Second-Chance-H-R-1529 or wedeserveourlivesback.com if you could! Thank you!!

The argument, however, in favor of the plaintiffs, rests wholly on the assumption that the citizenship is the same and the privileges and immunities guaranteed by the clause are the same.” 83 U.S. 36 (1873), page 74. And: “In the Constitution of the United States, which superseded the Articles of Confederation, the corresponding provision is found in section two of the fourth article, in the following words: ‘The citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens OF the several States.’ ” 83 U.S. 36 (1873), page 75. The last was later reaffirmed in Cole v. Cunningham: “The intention of section 2, Article IV (of the Constitution), was to confer on the citizens of the several States a general citizenship.” Cole v. Cunningham: 133 U.S. 107, 113-114 (1890). The privileges and immunities of citizens of the several states are those described by Corfield, cited in the Slaughterhouse Cases. This is reaffirmed in Hodges v. United States: “In the Slaughter House Cases, 16 Wall. 36, 76, in defining the privileges and immunities of citizens of the several States, this is quoted from the opinion of Mr. Justice Washington in Corfield v. Coryell, 4 Wash. Cir. Ct. 371, 380.” Hodges v. United States: 203 U.S. 1, at 15 (1906). So there are now two citizens under the Constitution of the United States. One needs to find out information on both. For a citizen of the United States that is easy. Just about anywhere. For a citizen of the several States one will have to begin here: http://citizenoftheseveralstates.webs.com/index.htm To all,

I wish to state that the Supreme court, in the Slaughterhouse Cases, held that because of the Fourteenth Amendment there were now two separate and distinct citizens under the Constitution of the United States; a citizen of the United States, under the Fourteenth Amendment and a citizen of the several States, under Article IV, Section 2, Clause 1 [FOOTNOTE]:

“We think this distinction and its explicit recognition in this Amendment (the 14th Amendment) of great weight in this argument, because the next paragraph of this same section (first section, second clause), which is the one mainly relied on by the plaintiffs in error, speaks only of privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States, and does not speak of those of citizens of the several states. The argument, however, in favor of the plaintiffs, rests wholly on the assumption that the citizenship is the same and the privileges and immunities guaranteed by the clause are the same.” 83 U.S. 36 (1873), page 74.

And:

“In the Constitution of the United States, which superseded the Articles of Confederation, the corresponding provision is found in section two of the fourth article, in the following words: ‘The citizens of each State shall be entitled to all the privileges and immunities of citizens OF the several States.’ ” 83 U.S. 36 (1873), page 75.

“The intention of section 2, Article IV (of the Constitution), was to confer on the citizens of the several States a general citizenship.” Cole v. Cunningham: 133 U.S. 107, 113-114 (1890).

The privileges and immunities of citizens of the several states are those described by Corfield, cited in the Slaughterhouse Cases. This is reaffirmed in Hodges v. United States:
