Yes, I have heard of McNeil. I believe it is a civil commitment facility. We have one in Arcadia, Floriduh. But what Ron Crook is trying to do amounts to false imprisonment.  He wants to round up and incarcerate homeless people who are now longer under parole, probation, or community control, but are required to register as &quot;Sex Offenders,&quot; under the guise of &quot;helping&quot; them. What a load of bollocks!]]></description>

Yes, you have it exactly right. Drunken Ron Book/Crook will ALWAYS be trying to line his pockets. He&#039;s immoral.

There is no need to be nice to anyone who supports Registries. These people are immoral, criminal, anti-American harassers who deserve to be attacked all the time. Every day that Registries exist, these Nazis should be attacked. So how about we give the Nazis some labels? They want to call people &quot;pedophiles&quot; who are not pedophiles. They want to call people &quot;predators&quot; or &quot;$EX offenders&quot;. If they are being &quot;nice&quot; they just call a person an &quot;offender&quot;. When the only offenders around are themselves.

So let&#039;s give them some labels and use them all of the time. I think a huge part of this war is propaganda. So let&#039;s attack them. I propose that we call this guy &quot;Drunken Ron Book/Crook&quot; all the time. Then if a person searches for &quot;Ron Book&quot;, they will find that all over. &quot;Lauren Book/Crook&quot; seems good.

It&#039;s way past time to stop being nice and treating these people as if they matter.]]></description>

Great job SarahF and JZ. I think the most important thing we can do in this war is get the media to tell the truth and stop blinding reporting big government propaganda and things just to make the clueless public feel good. Most people support Registries because it makes them feel good and they believe it will make people think better of them. If they come to believe that people will think less of Registry Nazis/Supporters, as everyone should, they&#039;ll stop supporting it. Their egos are the most important things in the world. Much more important than any children.

Regarding recidivism rates, I have not read all of your discussions about it so I may be out of your loop. But, I would focus less on recidivism rates and more so on the fact that Registries, and especially idiocy like &quot;residency restrictions&quot;, increase them. It doesn&#039;t matter what the recidivism rate is, Registries make it worse.

Registries are just idiotic social policy that people need to fantasize does something useful. And half the Nazis don&#039;t care regardless, they are happy just to be harassing people.]]></description>

The island thing for sex offenders,  ones who have committed actual real crimes against another individual has already been going on in Washington state for years and years. McNeil island.  Vice news did a whole show on it.   If you think Florida is bad, take a look at the illegal proactive stings run in Washington state.  With the mandatory minimum sentence of 58.5 months to LIFE in prison.  Determined by and ISRB (Indeterminate sentence review board )  A crime created by the DOJ, MECTF, WSP and ICAC.  No victim,  no anything. But if you step outside your house, in Washington state you&#039;ve taken a &quot; substantial step&quot; , your automatically guilty.  With every conviction, they get 100,000.00$$ in grant money.  These stings are or where, run on Craigslist,  in a adults only forum. The whole thing is a lie, from start to finish.   Courts won&#039;t allow entrapment defense strategy to be used, which it absolutely is.  Florida may have some heanous laws, but at least something is being said and a voice heard. If only Washington state could have a voice, someone to right the wrong done by the police and other law enforcement agencies.  Oh, and the law used for sentencing,  was created well before the internet was even invented yet. How&#039;s that for justice??]]></description>

I&#039;ve come here, to the FAC blog, to pound out on my keyboard retorts triggered by false accusations found on news websites. To vent.

Some days, like yesterday and today, I rant, posting seemly same material. Some the moderators post others they just dismiss. But I get it as do they, I&#039;m banging out frustrations, anger and rage. In the end is a finished product.  Like this submitted to the Editor of the Miami herald:

My response to those advocating restrictions on places of residency and the many other supervision requirements being imposed on freemen in a free society is simply this. The unregistered pedophile larking within your family or circle of friends is by far the greatest threat to your child. This is an undeniable fact. Just ask Mr.Ron Book.

As for me, I am a freeman living in a free society. My success and failures are mind and mind alone. I am unbound except for my self-imposed limitations. As a freeman I am guided by my conscious and the understanding between right and wrong. No Government imposed regulation will prevent a freeman in a free society from doing wrong.

This ordinance is a punishment illegally enacted by the County, that power reserved to the State. If this ordinance is consistent with the personal liberty of citizens, why may not the County impose a residency restriction where African Americans, Hispanics, gay men or women may reside? If there is no “Right” or protected liberty interest reserved to the people in changing one’s situation, (whether it be residency, employment, or educational), of (at) their own free will and inclination, then there can be no claim of discrimination. We all share the same (or the lack of) liberties.

This personal liberty interest of changing one’s residency is so do deeply rooted in our nation’s history and traditions, the very essence of freedom should not be infringed unless as punishment for a crime.

Gave public danger is said to result from what these sex offenders, these monsters are expected to do. If we were to assume that they are disposed to commit every opportune sexual act, it is still difficult to reconcile with traditional American law and values, the BANISHMENT of persons by the County because of anticipated, yet uncommitted crimes. BANISHMENT, to protect society from predicted but unconsummated offenses is unprecedented in this Country.

This is not about public safety.  This is about vengeance. Just ask Mr. Ron Book.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I am a free man. Release from criminal supervision more than 10 years ago, I believed my &lt;strong&gt;punishment&lt;/strong&gt; was over. It&#039;s not. In fact, with each passing year the penalties imposed for an offense committed more than 3 decades ago, so called &lt;strong&gt;Remedial Sanctions&lt;/strong&gt; have become more restrictive and burdensome. More so than the original terms and conditions of probation.

With a wink and a nod from the Courts, this &lt;strong&gt;Frightening and High recidivism&lt;/strong&gt; narrative is being used as justification for removing the safeguards of liberty. Simply re-classify what is punishment to &lt;strong&gt;remedial&lt;/strong&gt; and poof constitutional protections that otherwise provided protection; Ex post facto, due process, double jeopardy, to name just a few, are no longer available to the &lt;strong&gt;sex offender&lt;/strong&gt;

Am I a free man living in a free society or forever a Predator expected re-offend at every opportune moment?]]></description>

The next time Ronnie boy is interviewed, he should be asked what he thinks about all the teenagers who sexted and are now on the registry as adults for that. And about men/women on the registry because of mid-teens lying about their age because they know they can pass for legal age due to their physical appearance.
