Let us all recognize the real reason for all sex offender laws is to re-elect politicians. Every year new sex offender restrictions throughout the nation are proposed. In lockstep, sitting politicians rally behind this new legislation as if this will be the next magic bullet to end all sex of fences. This scheme garners cult- like support while the real problem exist in the foul minds of people not even applicable to any restrictions

In reply to FAC Contributor #3. Once the debt is paid the registry should go away. There is more danger on the streets than registered citizens.

In reply to Jerry. We appreciate your opinion, Jerry, but respectfully disagree. It is ineffective for everyone.

Even if there is a registry it should be for Predators and repeat offenders.

In reply to Stephen H..

Are you telling me these individuals did not “re-offend” because they’re weren’t registered to begin with? Oh, how embarrassing for the almighty and “necessary” SORNA.

Actually, even if those men WERE listed AND offended.. either way, would it have mattered? Not to the public and lawmaker lawmakers because they would still twist the narrative in their favor: We need to strengthen the registry to make it more robust and dynamic.” LOL

AND.. lawmakers would still claim the registry serves as a “deterrent” for those that DO NOT offend that are on it.

If the registry prevents sex offenses, and since most sex offenses are committed by those not on the registry…fact…, then why not put all citizens on the registry and in theory that should all but eliminate sex offenses.

In reply to Lee C.

I agree Lee
An example is the shooting in Colorado this week end. Another hate crime no doubt. What caused him to hate this group I have no clue but he was able to carry out the murders because he knew he would find them at this certain night club. Just as the registry tells those that hate persons on the registry where they are. If registered persons start demonstrating against the registry I guarantee there will be violence against these ones. Because just the establishment of the registry tell people that these people are evil and need to be contained. Biden said about the shooting “ we need to put an end to this hate so prevalent in the country”.
But at the same time is doing nothing about the registry which instills hate in people. Thinking they need to take things into there own hands and take drastic action because they feel the government is not doing enough.
The registry is a ticking time bomb waiting to explode.
This article does nothing to turn people away from the registry. It only tells people they need to do more which will only lead to more harsh treatment and more hate.

In reply to Stephen H.. The public believes that the registry prevents sex offenses. That’s why they keep supporting them.
