Yeah… I would like to take the opportunity to strongly discourage anyone that personally feels that the registry works as a “deterrent” for them NOT to be forthcoming with this info. Not only does this feed the confirmation bias of registry proponents, it does people that are forced to register that are not sexually attracted to children a HUGE disservice. Further, it hinders and impedes our messaging and efforts to deep-six the registry.

Don’t give the other side free ammunition to use against us.

Petitioner had cited one survey, for example, in which “19% of responding offenders agreed or strongly agreed to the statement that ‘residence restrictions help me prevent offending’ and 26% agreed or strongly agreed with the statement that ‘I am more able to manage my risk factors because I cannot live near a school, park or playground.’”

Never heard of this survey, Any one have a link?
