Please take that on. I’ve been asking the state for that accountability and they never reply. This is one thing that you could take on for us. We Need people to take their ideas and make it happen. Please don’t rely on someone else to do the work. Each of us can do something towards our cause. This could be yours

When it comes down to it, everyone should have a map, whether online or on person.
Vehicles come with a speedometer,so you can drive within the speed limit and know when you’re not.

To provide guidance to law enforcement. If a bill does not include enforcement guidelines – then it cannot be legally binding. I don’t think thats unreasonable. But I bet if this legal action wins then future “laws” will be given more thought. Otherwise…….

Submit a FOIA Request for this info so they can reply timely with it. Be specific in your request and then track it. Be great data to use in an expose’.

Every dollar in and every dollar out, no matter how mundane or trivial. Including fees paid by probationers, parolees, incarcerated, etc.

The new laws are so vague and the penalties are so steep that it really seems to just boil down to whichever police officer is on duty at the time and how they are feeling, or whichever municipality you happen to be in while traveling across the state or what not. We are taking all of this very seriously and not taking any chances. Basically, I feel like I’m on a polite form of house arrest. The entire State feels like a threatening minefield of vague laws that when enforced carry significant and life damaging punishments. My case was adjourned in 1997 and I was never convicted of any crime. I have been off of probation since 2002. I have never violated the terms of my probation or of any of the expanding rules applied to me on the registry in all of this time. And here I am 29 years later and there are new laws and punishments constantly being applied to me and my family. The least these people can do is give us some specific information. But they are not interested in being clear or even following the Constitution for that matter. They just dish out whatever they want and everybody just has to take it and accept it no matter how poorly written and unconstitutional it all ultimately is. And they certainly don’t care about the damage it caused to people like me or my family! I’ve heard people talk about the free state of Florida recently and it just makes me want to throw up. People have no idea what’s really going on. The only thing you’re free to do in this state is to get another job or sit and rush hour traffic somewhere.

Mindless laws are usually created by mindless people.

That is so very true. Another example of “rules for thee and not for me.”
