Texas 2

That happened to me a few years back but the Florida Department of Law Enforcement did it automatically without my knowledge. Only found out after a court appearance where I won a dispute against them on another issue. I think it was retribution.

Another lawyer said I could have it correct for $1000.00. Well #1 I do not have a $1000.00 and #2 I already paid to go after them once, imagine what they will do to me if I win against them again? I hate having to register 4 times a year instead of the 2 I was doing, but taking a few hours 2 more times a year is better than spending $1000 I do not have an having to piss them off again. They won this round.

In reply to Rich. Rich You sadly assume all people possess common sense in the first place LOL. Some have it but do not know how to access those files in their brains.

Where does it say anyone has the “right” to be protected from anyone? We’re just gonna start making up rights is that it? An assumed right is a legal right?

You assaulted someone, so the State is going to force you to live a certain distance from me in order to protect my right to be protected from you? Huh?? And the ACLU just speaks and gets quoted as if that right actually exists. Thanks, ACLU idiot.

Yes, I wrote to the Sun Times. Common sense will prevail. it has to.

Citizens, neighbors and law makers cause these issues, so they need to stop the bitching.

Can I plagiarize this? Perfect for a testimony against residency restrictions bills that we are fighting here in Texas.

This story deserves a follow up with more detail on our side of the issue. They say you can send correspondence to letters@suntimes.com. Sounds like an opportunity to lead the discussion rather than being the target for a change.

In reply to Media. Media The cheapest property for sell in Key west a while back was $1 million. A few older folks could have sold their small plots with run down trailers but were stuck in their ways. Once they started dying, the city started doing immiment domain to get the properties dirt cheap.

A bill was introduced into the Illinois legislative body that would change the residency restriction from 500 feet to 250 feet. Since no mention was made in this editorial, I assume the bill died. (Living in a city with a 2500-foot residency restriction, I would give anything for Illinois’ 500 feet.)

This idea of “not in my backyard” is a growing trend and not just for registrants. According to the Florida Bulldog, some people in Lake Worth Beach are trying to force low-income senior citizens out of their community — some seniors who have lived there for decades.

At a July 24, 2018 commissioners’ meeting, two commissioners “made it clear they wanted to push out low-income residents and discourage people who didn’t fit their preferred demographics from moving in.”

One commissioner stated that he wanted only people making at least $60,000 a year and with a college degree.

A second commissioners stated that Lake Worth Beach should not be welcoming people who are not “supposed to be there”.

Sounds as though some in this country are proposing a medieval caste system.
