I am in complete agreement about punishing the rest of us because a few bad Apples.
I had mentioned before on another thread that about that guy in the Lunsford case. I hope the family finds peace. The Dept of corrections had him in custody the State of Florida had known about his behavior and yet released him! Instead of them taking the responsibility they shift the blame on a bad apple and now we All have a bad reputation.
I had common sense to get out of Florida I have no ties there anymore. I lost family, friends due to a bad decision when I was 19 years old. I am 56 years old now I been clean and arrest free for 16 years. They say we are threat to the future I think they watched Tom Cruise Movie ” Minority Report” The movie was about arresting people before they commit a crime.

Sound like the Registry we all live on!!!!

While I agree with you, let’s focus first and foremost getting off this damn registration scheme they have held us on for life. I was in my 20’s when arrested and now in my 60s. What does that tell you? Haven’t had another crime since but the authorities state myself and others are a future threat to society and must be held accountable for life on the registry.

Do they really think a registration site is going to stop someone who is hell bound on committing another crime? If I was going to slip up I think it would have been somewhere in that 40 year gap don’t you think? If I (And all of us) haven’t learned their lesson by now, then when if ever?

Those who are going to offend are going to but do not punish the rest of us because of a few bad apples.
