I have been writing of the successes NARSOL has been achieving with their letters/emails to Patch.com. After NARSOL’s press release signed by over 200 researchers, academics, treatment providers, including ATSA, and many others (FAC included), some states have disassociated from the Patch maps and articles from Halloween. Connecticut and Massachusetts are still with them, but the word Halloween can no longer be used. Illinois stubbornly stays with them, but from what I have been reading, Illinois is not one of the better states to live in, period.
I concur with the above, as I go online this year to post comments at every Patch.com article I can find, and it is basically all in CT, MA, IL, and MT – quite an improvement from a couple of years ago.
We cannot stop here, though. NARSOL is asking for help through emails/letters and Twitter. Please read the information in NARSOL’s blog and see what we can do at FAC to help push Patch’s maps into extinction.
Thank you,

These list just over complicate life and distract naive people into thinking men not on the list check out.
I thought it was illegal to post your own flyers about people so why isn’t this? It’s kinda like the chain gangs they considered to be slavery; well so is this when someone is making political and profitable gain from another mans demise against their will.
What about GA i thought they had a big to do about this last year and the sherriff here in Polk county who is always putting himself on the news during this time of year?
They won… Butts County.
Butts County sheriff was going to appeal, as I recall.
Did he lose the appeal or just drop it?
I also recall that a GA state legislator introduced a bill to fix the “problem,” allowing counties to require signs. That bill got stuck I hope?
Jacob, I can’t quite follow all of the legal talk. So exactly how do things stand now? Does the sheriff get to do what he did last year, or have the courts stopped him for now?
Thank You for all you do!
A question. In Kansas City Missouri on Aug . 13 ,2020 a bill was unanimously passed to quote. Make it illegal to
“ willfully or maliciously publish personally identifying information to “ intimidate, abuse, threaten” a public official or encourage another to do so and when the publication places that officials immediate family or intimate partner , etc——.
This being so if they publish the address of someone who work for the government would that not place them criminally liable as well as open up the possibility of a law suit. Also since KCMo.. also makes it illegal to request information about any criminal history on any completed criminal charges on any job applications. Are not Patch opening themselves up to law suits and fines here?
