I read the entire article, took almost an hour. All I can say is “WOW.” Sometimes we don’t consider how hard any felony conviction is to overcome because we are so focused on sex offenses. This is yet another reason why Amendment 4 should include all ex-felons! We all deserve a second chance.
ALL American citizens deserve a second chance and those who appose giving that second chance are NOT true Americans.
What are they afraid of? Those who think differently will have a voice? Those who have experienced prejudice and discrimination will likely represent others who have experienced the same institutionalized abuse under the lie of regulation?
YOU KNOW IT!
If I were to become an attorney I would spend all of my time working to right wrongs such as the punishment and illegal classification and abuse of “sex offenders” and all of the sanctioned constitutional violations that we are subjected to.
They will do anything to silence those who oppose them – isn’t that right Lauren Book! The fear factor of sex offenders is too valuable a tool for manipulation of the masses and those such as Ron and Lauren Book are a one trick pony…take that away from them and what would else do they have to say – nothing.
Pay wall. Also not relevant for Florida as the Florida Supreme Court determined years ago that you could not be an attorney in Florida fi you were a felon unless you had your civil rights restored. We know how that works.
