The laws In Mass sound fair in relation to Florida. Having the different levels of supervision is fair, after doing your time and getting your rights back is fair maybe not a full 20 but I would do that to say the past is the past. Right now in Florida I have to register. My offense happend back in 1986, before Meghan Laws but after moving here in 2006 I was told that I was in violation for Non Registration. So now I cant vote, Turned away from several jobs, places to live and at one job even feared for my life because I was looked at a Predator instead of a sex offender for indecent exposure, adult no contact. When will Florida say enough is enough. We have a population of older folks that just have alot of time on their hands and don’t understand the laws or the individuals involved. We cant be clumbed into one “BREED”

John C, thank you. I will keep trying.

I agree about complacency. When I was in elementary school, the bully would keep beating me up as long as I didn’t fight back, or as long as I looked afraid of him. Even though we Registered Citizens appeal to the courts for change (sincere thanks, FAC), it still feels a lot like we’re just crying to Mom about the bullies, so that maybe we can get a safe ride to/from school grounds or get a school official to keep an eye out for us. I believe that courts may ultimately make registered life easier, but I don’t think the registry will ever end (people still need to harass prisoners in the virtual town square stocks). In fact, I think it’s a testing/learning ground for more types of registries and people-management and personal data collection schemes. I also believe that Registered Citizens are more well-behaved and legally compliant than other perceived ‘bad guys’. But, I’m afraid that idiots like the Books would even argue that we’re more compliant and well-behaved BECAUSE of all of the legal restrictions and potential prosecutions – so, they can say “those RSO laws must be working.” Thanks, FAC and others for fighting for all of us. Your efforts have made my life easier and a bit less stressed out.

Maybe he has interests in the ankle monitor company(ies) that sweet daughter Lauren is potentially helping with her new bills.

That is why everyone one of us needs to sign the petition that is being submitted to the fl. House demanding that alk ex felons have their civil rights restored.

! also wonder what other things Book is involved in. Wouldn’t be surprised if all his anti-SO bluster is to cover up other corruption that would be far less favorable to the public.

Time since conviction, 2 honorable discharges, many years service, my DD214 & a USA Jobs account.

I have always said that RSOs that were adjudication withheld and can still vote should be a politicians worse nightmare

John Coble,

I would love to know how you were able to get a Federal job with a SO conviction. I served in the Navy for over 20 years and can’t even get a callback, let alone an interview or job. I have an MBA, which is useless against a background check.
