Your post mostly retreads the news stories printed on the escapist recently, which is kind of pointless. The stuff about GameStop being a poor employer is now common knowledge.
Much more interesting is the other stuff. They do criminal record checks? You know, like nearly all big employers? Most businesses actively discriminate against convicted felons, even after they've served their debt to society. It's just the way things go, it's not nice, but it's hardly unique. It's a widespread, and rather unfortunate practice.
I worked at a McDonalds for a while, and the conditions there weren't great either. But the thing is, if you don't like the conditions, you can always leave. If you think their decisions are illegal, then you can contact a lawyer, the union, the police, or similar. They exist to make money, and in doing so, they'll be as ruthless as they can get away with.
This doesn't really seem to have an endgame in mind: Are you trying to say that *gasp* GameStop has some less than savoury business practices? Are you trying to incite a boycott? Do you want to gather people for a class action lawsuit? Because I just don't see the use in collecting a bunch of annoyed employees or ex-employees for no reason.
Then again, I did just comment on your post.
