Being people required to register, not sure using “Get in bed with” is a good phrase to use.
Afterall, they might see that and say you were making unwanted advances towards them.
As for me, I am so old, my pillows won’t even cuddle with me 🙂

If you run out of gas pull a Fred Flintstone using your feet or have people with you that have a lot of hot air to lift you up to the finish line. Giving up is allowing the oppressors win and that isn’t an option for me.

Brilliant old Chap. “Off ramps”. I love the analogy. But, if we have no off ramps, what do we do if we run out of gas? Maybe that is there plan, for us to “Give up”.

If the registry isn’t punishment than why the no off ramps for people and why the increase burdensome restrictions? I’m not a rocket scientist, but I know what punishment looks and feels like and the registry bs is punishment.

Cherokee an advocate is only good as the law they are fighting for. Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in the abundance of counselors the people have victory. And yes an advocate is a counselor as well as other advocates. Yes man can be the author of confusion in many ways.
Many can but isn’t ACLU an advocate well their their when one needs them. Yes many don’t have all the answers. Can we all say who’s right in this government confusion as many have been played on from all across America.
Is registry for community safety, public safety, or a vain vanquish efforts to punish with unethical means and measures or practices. Let true justice ring again or is justice getting a bit more out of hand. Even efforts can be in vain in American government Justice. Should we all say its about computers or how one controls the tongue.Is it all about incriminating subject matter or some court of law distributing blind justice by scrupulous/scandalous means. Even signing papers can be incriminating and intimidating.

More retroactive BS I am assuming. I went from not having to register, to registering ONCE unless I had changes, to once a year, then two times and now 4 times a year. ALL retroactive since there was no registry in 1991 when my incident took place. None in 1992 when arrested, none in 1993 at sentencing. I was released in 1997 and was told I would have to register, even though it had not even been created when I was sentenced.

The proposal to create a “Tier IV” registrant has been floating around for several years and hasn’t gone anywhere (yet.) Let’s hope this isn’t the year for that — which would require people who no longer have to register to re-register with their local sheriff’s office (and pay a $25 fee) for a “non-public” registry. I don’t know if this would require folks who have been free of their registration requirement for several years to re-register, but this has to be one of the stupidest registry-related ideas ever hatched.
