Are you referring to an incident that resulted in arrest?

Like, do we know of an incident in which a concerned citizen, or overzealous officer, stalked a registrant until they crossed a line into a restricted area?

Because my advice to such concerned citizen or officer would be to get a life, find a hobby, etc.  ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[FAC-3.  Thank you so much for the clear answer.  I always appreciate you and this group. I only talk to about 5 people at the gym.  The guys at the desk over 18, the bald banker way over 18, My grumpy old guy over 65, my Portuguese buddy over 65 and the guy from work two nights a week with him.  

Easy way to do it.  Put your ear buds in before you go in the gym.  LOL Rock out the 80&#039;s Mix and keep it moving.

Looking forward to the Law Suit.  Do you know if they will be able to file an injunction before July 1?]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Lets talk something more like this..entrapment if a enemy wants to follow you and watch your ever move.  Let&#039;s say you travel to a location under 500 feet and they take pictures to entrap you.  Or not saying everyone authority figure is like this but a officer does not like you so set you up like a neighbor of mine has going on.]]></description>

Imagine the cop thinks you&#039;re talking to a minor, arrests you, and come to find out she&#039;s like 18 or 19. Dude, I&#039;m suing the s*** out of them lol. There&#039;s so many holes in this &quot;legislation&quot; just like there is in the hit list itself.]]></description>

Is it true that now they can arrest for this by officer determination on the spot instead of obtaining a warrant?]]></description>

Tearful, The proximity ordinance makes it illegal to &quot;knowingly approach, contact, &lt;strong&gt;or communicate with&lt;/strong&gt;, or approach with the intent to contact or communicate with &lt;strong&gt;a person younger than child under 18 years of age in any public park building or on real property comprising any public park, or playground, or public swimming pool.&lt;/strong&gt;&quot;

This is not legal advise, but if they are under 18 a best practice would, in fact, be to stand there like a deaf mute or walk away. This way there&#039;s no communicating. It&#039;s ridiculous, but it is what it is and it&#039;s why we&#039;re bringing a lawsuit.

For others who have requested clarity on the changes. There&#039;s that, plus, F.S. § 775.215 is amended by, among other things, adding a new prohibition on residence by certain registered sex offenders within 1,000 feet of a “public swimming pool.” Public swimming pools are defined to include those “operated by or serving subdivisions, apartments, condominiums, mobile home parks, or townhouses, or any pool operated by a governmental entity which is held open to the public.” 

If you are living there already, you don&#039;t need to move, but if you move, you&#039;re subject to the new law. How it impacts pre-2004 offenders is still unclear. We believe that if someone is not subject to the existing SORR because they are pre-2004 this provision does not apply to them in any form, but it&#039;s vague and we will find out (hopefully) through the lawsuit.

As far as who is supposed to inform the 90,000 registrants in Florida of the new law and it&#039;s application. It should be the FDLE. Whether they will or won&#039;t do that is another matter. 

For members of FAC and those receiving our updates, you know the law changed. Best practice... Avoid people under 18 within 500 feet of these places and verify your prospective residence before moving. How you know whether an individual is 17 or 19, or how you determine if you&#039;re within 499 feet or 501 feet... who knows? We will find out (hopefully) through the lawsuit. For the other 87,000 Florida registrants who likely have no idea the law has changed... join FAC.]]></description>

I never said there was a ban.  I was only seeking clarifications.  Mainly on the gym issue.  I dont go to Parks and I would not use a pool at a hotel motel rv park anyway.  My clarification is this Scenario.  If your gym has a Pool.  And you are outside the pool area working out and someone asks you if you are almost done, using this piece of equipment etc.  Can you answer them? or do we stand there like a deaf mute?]]></description>
