Will be interesting to see what happens here. The best way to end this debate for me is so simple. Place us under the registry scheme that was in effect at the time of offense and be done with the conversation. That would solve a ton of issues and the only thing I would add is also make a way for all to be removed. No matter what scheme you would fall under; AKA Pre Sorna, before 2004, between 2004 and 2014, between 2014 and 2018, and after 2018. With the later allowed to petition at 5, 10 and 20 year mark.
“Place us under the registry scheme that was in effect at the time of offense and be done with the conversation.”
That will not satisfy the Karens and Darens and haters of all persuasions.
They must and will support nothing less than death.
Ah that is a given. I was offering solutions to those in Tally that surf this blog.

If you’re high up enough in the food chain, you’ll never face justice for raping or abusing a child.

[Note: The Moderator has no evidence of any public official “raping a child”].
Here’s so.e evidence of a public official in that scenario.

I didn’t hear anyone screaming for cctv cameras when a child gets killed throughout city yet seems to one of the “solutions” to deal with the mass of registrants located at 3 buildings.

Heres the news segment of the meeting if anyone is curious https://www.fox13news.com/news/vm-ybor-neighbors-brings-concerns-over-clustered-sex-offenders-to-tampa-city-council.amp
The council seems like they want to help but their hands are tied to our state law. Also they said that the council is not going to contact Tallahassee for fear that they will do the opposite thing but urged that the townspeople write their legislation.
Seems the real issue is that the registry is hurting her ability to sell her house for the highest value she thinks she entitled to so her solution is to try and find a way to make registrants homeless.
If anyone lives in ybor city the workshop is today.
