Lauren Book is in the news again. Standing up for human rights but has a bad habit of forgetting that PFR’s are human too.

Let’s see it they get signs posted in their yards.
Maybe we have been approaching this from the wrong direction. We have numerous Call To Action issues that we try to fight. Some are good outcomes, others not so much. To my knowledge every item the City Council sees for a vote has to go to the LEGAL department. What if we reached out to the legal teams for each county/city council and shared the real statistics? Letting the legal teams know the days of them just beating on us until we are out of blood is over. We have a voice, even if very small. I just found out the new Mayor of Jacksonville has placed a new lawyer into the City Council. I am going to reach out to him and give him the rest of the story. See if he is concerned with the law or whats popular.
Good idea AL. Maybe this will be pursued by FAC Legal?
Often as the story goes those who yell the loudest usually are the ones that try to deflect their own issues. Maybe in time he can see the other side of the issue now.
I know we don’t want to seem to single out a individual and focus solely on their charge but I believe that this guy was a public figure in the community who was well know lawyer in the law sexual abuse advocacy group and worked especially hard at punishing us.

One has to wonder about those who are exposed to whatever they are doing to protect others, such as this gent in this manner, if they become numb to it and fall to it over time, much like a temptation for those in positions of power. Yes, projection by others onto others is because there is most likely guilt associated for their own actions, but to what path happens does the fall take and why? Is there trauma from before they are addressing? It would be interesting to get this gents story to see one side, one perspective, of his fall. Let’s hope he is able to use his legal knowledge to assist FAC, et al, the best he can for improvement in the area he now will be part of, whether in the cell or outside of it.

So they interviewed the Governor and he is sensitive to the issue of giving the death penalty to register citizens based on the act that they have committed which they should be prosecuted for the crime that is very true, but is the death penalty the answer? Especially lowering the threshold, needed to send someone to death. What is to stop the criminal or the defendant from killing a child stopping the child from testifying or discovering the body I think this is a serious dangerous law because people panic and when people panic, they do stupid things.
