Petition to Declare Public Sex Offender Registration in the United States a Violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)
Today, approximately one-million people in the United States are forced to register as “sex offenders”. The label leads to stigmatization, separation from society, loss of employment, loss of housing and even exposure to violence at the hands of vigilantes. The stigmatization extends to the spouses, children, family, friends, employer and anyone that associates with the registrant. The isolation, shame, stress, fear of violence, loss of income and other psychological effects are experienced by the entire household.
And I would bet a nickel that none of those rulings are in Florida or a district that effects Florida. We unfortunately live in a state where Government officials and judges believe they ARE the law and above it.
DISCLAIMER: Just my opinion, not speaking for anyone else
Yes encouraging news. And a great piece. Trying not to derail this thread but has there been any update to the doe v. SWEARINGEN (Case # 4:21-cv-00085 ) case? Pacer seems to have stop updates. Or, do I need to look up the guy who replaced Swearingen? Seems like the courts are taking a long time to kick the can back down to the lower court so they can say yeah our statute of limitations claim is still ripe since or punishment is still ongoing.
Thank you for the encouragement!
These government blacklists (just like the ones used by the nazis and the ku klux klan) must be entirely abolished!
Wow this gave me hope after aome bad news yeaterday I dont know if I have a current or future Registry lawsuit but I also just had a similiar issue I have seen here with registry alerts hurting me. I am Married to a Foreign National over 20 years and now I have been told my Immigration request to become a Resident or Citizen might be impossible simply because I am on the Registry here in the US!. Its deemed a National Security threat! This country will look passed the Felony (10 Years) but wont even allow you into the country if you are on the Registry. I have been working on this for years and would have had no issues till recently. Another way we continue to be punished.
Enough Allready
Yeah I have had at least 2 of my doctors tell me to find another doctor as they will no longer be able to treat me. Of course it is because the registry but they won’t tell me that in writing.
And the government’s house of cards is beginning to fall apart….
Thank you for that. It made my day a little brighter.
Yes, agreed – Thanks for delivering some happy news! (I found it ironic that the Supreme Court of Alaska – the State that started the whole Registry nightmare back in 2003 – found theirs – or part of theirs – to be unConstitutional!!
