Devastating blow in the 11th Circuit as long-awaited decision in McGuire is released
The decision in McGuire that we have been waiting for for 7 years came out and it is very unfavorable.
A copy of the opinion is being shared before we even had a chance to read and digest it.
More to come.

it’s because this law is not voted on by the public, and has no one person to take blame. Did you expect anything different under those circumstances? Who has the guts to march in the state of Fl? I’m ready. THAT is the only hope for a start.
I will.
I am the registry in Florida for the past 23 years. I have not lived in the state of Florida for the past 16 years of those years. As I am not required to update my info there they are currently showing false info for me as well as nearly 40,000 others.
What good it that doing the fine people of Florida? Protecting them from what exactly?
I will not be returning to Florida to march. I want Florida to let go of me as I have nothing to do with that state other than being listed on their inaccurate hit list (just like 40k of the 80k listed).
This isn’t good for any registrants in the 11th and 7th circuits since Judge Ripple was sitting in this case by designation from the 7th circuit. Have there ever been any decisions in any federal appellate court that view that registration scheme as punitive?
The 6th
As stated innmu post, Judge Ripple sat by designation from the 7th Circuit. See https://ballotpedia.org/Kenneth_Ripple
Well, that wasn’t very nice.
This sickens me…waiting 7 years for this – what a joke!
I guess they don’t consider having to sleep under an interstate as punishment!!!
If Hell is real, they’re going to be a LOT of judges there.
I’ll read it, but first I need a drink.
FAC, don’t rush to analyze the whole thing. Take your time. Have a drink first. Then talk it over with our attorneys.
I just got off the phone with them and there are distinctions that offer hope. I’ll do a deep dive tomorrow, but it would be irresponsible to say or do anything until I’ve actually read the thing.
