In reply to CherokeeJack. I'm of course not advocating that anyone break the actual law, if it is a probation issue or something, but I know tons of SOs who use Facebook in violation of its TOS. And if they can't, they have friends and family who can.

In reply to TruthandSciene. Please provide the source for this information. Your claim seems a bit incredible. Using rough calculations, with 1 million registrants, $26B would be $26,000 PER PERSON each year to maintain the registry. Florida's share would be over $2B.According to the recent OPPAGA report, Florida got $10M (million, not billion) and local and municipal police got $6M from the federal government for SORNA, which would leave the state footing the bill for $1.98B. Please provide a source for your statistics.

In reply to GA: ‘Mariam’s Law’ proposed.

And I suppose if this passes, it would be retroactively applied to everyone, just like every other new sanction they place on us and call it, non-punitive in nature.
Just another day at the office folks, nothing to see here. Move along. No humans were harmed in the application of this gentle law that was lovingly applied to monsters, uh, I mean registrants.

Just get it over with and send us all off to a remote island. Burn us at the stake. Symbolically that is what happens to us every time a new sanctioning law, rule or requirement is added to our so called “Non-punitive” actions. Who are you kidding? (Speaking of lawmakers and judges)

Unfortunately, the term “Human Rights” pertains only to those they deam suitable for this world. Kinda like India’s cast system, that’s where this country is heading with our discrimination of certain felons. Besides, if they can get away with it with felons, what say they can’t do it to the entire population as a whole. We’re their guinea pigs – or am I the only one who sees that? If I’m worng, someone say so.

Sadly, the more mayors and the public continue to do this the homeless problem will only grow, which will create an even greater problem for that town/city and community. It’s time we stop this fear mongering and start trying to help people get back on their feet and allowing them a second chance. If this isn’t done, then I propose a record be kept of all who feel second chances should not be given to felons, like SOFs, then they should NOT be given a second chance on any missdemenor or felonty they commit either. Maybe then they’ll understand …just a thought.

In reply to CherokeeJack. Cherokee My wonder here in Florida is where the Fair Housing Act comes into play, especially when someone forced to register is on the autism spectrum. I guess the question would be, if you play the disability card, does it override the registry?

Ran into this same issue here in Brevard county when I first came home from prison in 2013. Stayed at a pretty nice place on US 1 in Melbourne that my probation officer actually recommended and took me to. Stayed for about 7 weeks when the owner (remote owner – lived out of the area) “suddenly” realized that he had 5 or 6 registered folks living there….. some for over 6 months. I always paid my bill 2 weeks in advance. I was flagged down by the manager one day and told that I had to move. I would be allowed to stay for one more week but my second week would be refunded immediately in cash. She was really upset because she said that “we” were her most stable, dependable renters. Said that all of us together created 0% – ZERO – of her daily problems.
