This is all a disgusting mess and I can’t believe the 2022 mindset is that it seems to wanna purge this particular society of the “unwanteds’.” Was that COVID’s real purpose? Makes you think.. Florida law is particularly disgusting, with the law mandating a scarlet letter, and allowing a registrant to become a “human target” in the hands of healthcare professionals. I do believe a random person in American society would much rather choose to live next to me rather than a convicted murderer or a felon whose been prone to violence on strangers … unbelievable

I’ll post the same comment here as I did on the ASCOL site….Kansas needs to get on board with Michigan’s 6th Circuit ruling that states a registered person cannot be charged for unintentionally violating a sora rule.

In reply to Capt Charles ‘Bob’ Munsey Jr. USN Ret.

Capt

I know some people live a hectic and busy life, but registration is something you should be OBESSIVE about. I have a huge wall calendar with registration months I highlight in red. I also put a reminder in my dumb phone (Cannot afford a smart one) and the day before I put a huge piece of paper with a reminder on the floor so I have to step over it, and one on my inside front door so I have to see it. No excuse unless you are in the hospital to not register.

In Florida they give you and entire month to do it. And there are usually no leeway, you do not register you go bye,bye,bye like NSYNC.

Is this ruling being challenged further ,or is this the end of it?

This is a clear example that even people with a law education must have missed the class on ‘common sense’.

The ruling starts off with a proven false assumption that the registry and it’s many different regulations is in the interest of public safety . When it has been proven through studies time and again that that is a false assumption.
Why was that not challenged in this proceeding ? Why did it take 5 years to make a ruling here? We’re the attorneys here knowledgeable at all on the subject at hand? It appears they were not. Was it a court appointed attorney?

I forgot to add, there is really no other way to look at the registry’s consequences other than probation. Anyone who thinks otherwise either has their head in the sand, doesn’t care or needs to live 90 days in our shoes and see the truth. They say the truth will set you free, but honesty often sends you to prison, the opposite of freedom.
