In reply to Mrs. If society was truly apathetic, then most of these vengeful and spiteful registry laws and restrictions wouldn't exist. Apathy is a lack of concern.

I’m sorry to hear this. I think it’s a weak position, I really do. People are being mean and so we shut it all down and run back into hiding? Rise up, men! God bless all the women and mothers who sacrifice much for us, many of whom are leading us with great skill and intelligence but by the end of the day, this is OUR fight! We must be dauntless, not fearful in this work. We can’t win a war if we don’t show up.

In reply to James.

I partially agree with everything except the “fancy conventions and opulence”.

Those “fancy conventions” allow a lot of disjointed, fractured groups to come together and more effectively share what’s been going on. It’s a place where the most dedicated volunteers can get together in what used to be a very safe environment where everyone could speak freely and openly about this registry that haunts us. It also promotes networking and allows our most dedicated volunteers make solid connections which amplify our ability to organization and help each other. I can tell you haven’t been to one simply by your response, and since you haven’t been to one you shouldn’t be so quick to judge and dismiss.

Regarding the “opulence”, no idea what you’re referring to. Who or what in this movement are you talking about?

Please be careful with your thoughts and words.

In reply to Mrs.

@Mrs

You are not saying anything we don’t already know. However, surprisingly, some of us have a few neighbors who do not care we are on the registry and are nice to us. Not everyone is hateful, nasty and mean to us.
I laugh because there is a lady on my street and I ruin her day, every single time she drives by my house, and I am outside. Not because I have done anything to her, but she makes it a point to drive by and scrunch up her face in disgust like I had just killed everyone on the street or something. I get a chuckle each time that I have so much power to ruin someone’s day just by existing.
God blessed me with my home, and I am not leaving it unless He alone tells me otherwise to do so, not a neighbor, or anyone else.
We do not bother anyone (Most of us) so keep on being apathetic, it is your right to do so, as long as you do not physically harm us, I do not care what someone says about me. Prison made me stronger, not weaker. If we can survive that, we can do just about anything we put out mind to do. (Inside of what the law allows for, of course)

Let’s face the facts, with the recent fallout from the Epstein “client list” there is a spotlight on the target that has been placed on registrants. The masses wanted rich and powerful people to go after and didn’t get their wish. Now they are doubling down on everyone on the list.
The memes, the social media posts, and the comments have gotten ten times worse than they were. They dangled this bait in front of people for the past 8 years with people waiting to see how many of our government would be named. This baiting was done deliberately and with the purpose of inciting the people and then giving them a common enemy to focus their rage on. People are becoming so focused on their hate that they are not looking at the facts anymore.
Don’t let your guard down, the storm is coming and mob “justice” will start to become commonplace and even normalized.
Quit wasting money on fancy conventions and opulence when the money could do more good with the lawsuits to get rid of the registry. All the conventions do is bring the spotlight down upon us.

Seems cowardly to allow a few threats to stop a conference. I don’t see why they are cancelling over vague unsubstantiated threats.

In reply to HopefulSurvivor. @hopeful I hate to say this but, maybe it is a good thing. Instead of spending so much money on conferences, maybe put that towards lawsuits so heavy that the courts cannot even know where to begin.

Well, there were some people killed at a church recently. So there is really no limits to what people will do these days to kill.

All organizations should push HARD to get the names, addresses, etc. Of the 46 Republican representatives who are on Jeffery Epsteins list of clients. The discrepancy between elected officials and the registered citizens is huge. Those representatives have the power to change the laws and abolish the registry.
