Truthandjusrice,
I like you, have NO real Victum, it doesent matter and never will. Now I am dealing with my ability to travel out of state with as little BS interbention as possable.

My issue now is that the Woman at the VCSO see to be allowed to make up rules as they go. I was told to change my primary address to the address where I woudl be staying out of state. They said my Drivers license needed to have that.

They are confused as to a change in Permanent address out of state and travel to another state reqwuirements.

Dont think they are sworn officers, do you know?
Bob

I agree with Joe that only law enforcement should have access to RSOs personal and address information.
But I can attest that many cops are too f*cking stupid to know that we’re NOT all monsters. OR they enjoy being able to do anything to us without repercussions.

Nobody else should ever have access to this information because many people are too f*king stupid understand that not everyone on the registry is a monster.

Please Call and/or Message these f*ing heartless idiots:

Is Florida a disgrace as in many other states with this sex registry ordeal that has many paranoid to their own limits. Isn’t FAC still about truth and justice or is something wrong with a blue and red house map on Facebook. What is Facebook but a gossip column for fools and/or idiots. Is facebook the gospel of internet disruption or some pride of life excuse to compound another.

Sounds like many of you all posting on here are ready to orchestrate some blood and gut revenge which would be a downfall for all. Guess nobody heard of love your enemy or love thy neighbor. The registry is not an easy fix but all things are possible with the right measures.

Sure myself as well as Cherokee bring a bit of gospel or Good News to others but at times it just seems to go in one ear and out the other for many. Yes the bible talks about fear no evil. It also talks about temptations and is a book of knowledge or is foresight better than hindsight… Say what? Oh yes and the bible is also about all types of issues and yes it does bring comfort to many. If one has a problem the bible has an answer.

Sure comments are good if they are constructive but a man has to know their limits or where are human rights today?

Since the local sheriff is providing official government speech using Facebook, Facebook is now a news outlet providing official government communication and therefore, although I am not a lawyer, it appears you have the legal right to receive this official government communication.

Cherokee Jack, here in Michigan, we have a “stand your ground” law, meaning we do not have to retreat if confronted by someone who would attempt to harm or kill us. Basically, if I am in my home and someone kicks down my door and brandishes a weapon, I can use deadly force to defend myself. It doesn’t mean I can beat his brains out with a baseball bat, because the law states one cannot go too far. So there is a very fine line that must not be crossed. Basically you can’t keep kicking a guy when he’s already down. That’s what I meant but “up to what the law allows”. One can fight back with deadly force to protect life, but not property.
I just hope to God I will never find myself in that kind of situation because I would rather not have to hurt anyone.

You make a very good point, Dennis. I’m a very laid back, peaceful guy, but when confronted or threatened, I tend to go off the deep end and act before I think. I don’t like fighting, but will if I have no other options. I’d much rather avoid those kinds of situations if I can. There have been many circumstances where I look back and see I could have handled it in a different way. As they say, hind sight is always 20/20.
True, there are a lot of people not on the registry who probably read these forums, and if we want to be perceived as decent people, we need to rise above the slime and mud.
Reading stories like this really gets my goat. Even the most heinous offender does not deserve threats of harm from vigilantes because he already received his punishment from the court of law and no one has the right to add to it. I try to look at crimes as all being the same, and no one who breaks the law is better than someone else. Why should a registrant who had consensual relations with an under age girl be perceived as worse than someone who sold drugs to kids? Or someone who had too many drinks and got behind the wheel and severely injured or killed another driver?
We need to change the public’s opinions of us that we are not the Boogeyman lurking in the bushes waiting to snatch up their children.
As my handle states, I am just plain disgusted with all of it.

Dennis

Have you had your house shot at? I have thrice.
Have you ever had your house broken into? I have once
Have you ever had your vehicle broken into and/or vandalized? I have more times than I can count and have stopped even calling the police.
Have you had your windows broken by kids who were told by their parents “That guy in that house is the boogey man, so stay away”. I have
I could go on and on but the public does not like us. Not because we have a record but for two things. The public registry and more recently nextdoor. The registry unless you are required to give notifications, is more passive. Nextdoor aggressively informs your neighbors of your presence and continues to on a regular basis.
These otherwise normal neighbors start forming groups to get rid of us, and before you know it, you cannot walk out your front door without being called a name, having a rock thrown at you, finding graffiti on house, car etc.

The more we accept that and not do anything about it, the more the mobs will burn us at the stake. I have a family to protect and I am darn well not going to back down until they do. My grandson has to go to a private school just so the kids at public school do not beat him up because he lives with an EX sex offender.

My charges are from 31 years ago. Give a guy a break. I have not been charged with a single thing before that day nor since. I have been off of probation for almost 20 years now. What more can I say?
Meanwhile there are break-ins in our neighborhood and they don’t rally together to stop that. But someone who has lived here longer than them and has done nothing to them gets bashed 24/7, 7 days a week on social media that I/we are banned from.

And yes, I have several neighbors who I am friends with. We do not sit around talking about my past, we help each other and are just that, neighborly neighbors.

Disgusted,

You have a point but we can make our points publicly in a dignified way rather than simply rolling around in the mud which some people unfortunately have done.

It would be better if anyone who happens to fall across comment sections like that finds himself or herself thinking “Gee, those registrants and their supporters sound like really swell people, the kind of people I’d like to have over my house. The other lot sounds like a bunch of maniacs.”

You don’t need to disavow self-defense. It’s just not necessary to foam at the mouth when bringing it up.
