Since it was an ongoing enforcement of a law as the 5 day rule and the 3 day rule as is the sor. But what makes the registry much worse is that all Rosa had to to is nothing to keep from breaking the law. Where a registered person has to take action to keep from being imprisoned. If he does nothing in contacting police in going about his necessary business he can be charged with a crime.
It’s like saying a black person must notify police every time they ride the bus. Isn’t that exponentially worse than being told you have to sit in certain rows or stand when you ride a bus. And she has an option of taking a cab or other transportation and avoid the inconvenience and embarrassment.
Also what was the punishment for sitting in the wrong seat? Was it imprisonment? When was the segregation law enacted?
Since they established the illustration let’s put there shoe in the boot and see how it fits.
