Yes, I think it is time for a national summit between the executives (and councils) of all of the RSOLs and the other groups (WAR, RAA and others).

There should be a national summit.

An excellent synopsis that can apply not only in Florida. If the registry is punishment, does that open the door to bill-of-attainder challenges as well? That could topple the entire registry edifice. My only fear of having individuals move forward with an ex post facto challenge is that we might get an unfavorable decision. I think that advocacy organizations such as FAC, NARSOL or ACSOL should together pick a case very carefully.

After reading them I realized that I needed to do better and to give people something they could work with to move forward. As a result I have just created a comprehensive advocacy guide for registrants in Florida. God bless everyone and may we remember those who have not made it this far.
