It’d sure be easier to drum up support and donations if we did, Scott. But we have our hands full with advocating for our own population.
The one interesting fact that comes out of this might be the more “registries” come out, the better likelihood that a court would find that registering citizens is unconstitutional and that would include all registries. That would be farther down the road, and we don’t have the patience to wait until other “anti-registry” advocates organize. We need to act now, which is what we’re doing.

Well, kudos to the writer. As the next article posted today illustrates (“NY Senate Passes ‘Terrorist Registry’ Bill”), SOs are not the only demographic that needs to worry about some of the more (airquotes)interesting(/airquotes) policies that our legislators have come up with. Frankly, I think groups like RSOL and FAC are good candidates to deal with a variety of issues in that regard. You guys have the infrastructure set up already to play advocate against “reactive policies and fear mongering that the media and legislators perpetuate,” regardless of the group being reacted to. Heck, you don’t even need to change your name, only a small edit to your mission statement. Just a thought.
