Thanks @Eugene for the credit.  Thanks also to the @ACSOL moderators as well for pulling down the docs within the thread for all to read and use in the legal fight using science and data.  Within that thread, one will find the aforementioned doc @FAC mentioned above (which started my research) and others related to it some will find interesting (and others who won&#039;t because they won&#039;t like the conclusions since they don&#039;t fit their narrative).

You cannot truly quantify emotions beyond descriptive terms due to their subjectivity....]]></description>

@texas-2

When I was put on the registry in 1997, I applied for a scholarship and for the 2nd time in my life, I attended college. I got a 100% scholarship and graduated with honors and without a soul in my class knowing I was on the registry. 
Things have changed so much from then, I was even on probation at the time so of course the probation officer knew but she was cool and never said anything as long as I reported the dates and times to her that I would be on the campus in case of any incidents.
No way that would happen today with the way the registry has evolved into a 3 headed monster. At least not here in Florida anyway.]]></description>

here in Texas they cannot bar you from attending any college, you just have to report to the college of your status and report to your registry that you are attending classes]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[There are very powerful people who most don&#039;t know exist who control laws, rules, sanctions, legislation and even some powerful judges. If we knew all the powers that be, it would blow our minds.

People&#039;s pockets are being lined with registry funding so I ask, why would they want registries to go away? It is only about 3% about safety and the rest is about power, money and control.

You are more likely to get off the registry as an individual than the registries being shot down as a whole. Most won&#039;t feel the impact of losing one registrant whereas an entire state&#039;s registry going down would cause so many vacations to be canceled, new home purchases being delayed and promotions being waylaid.

Most people know more about Bigfoot and the Lochness monster than they know about the hidden workings of registrations laws and enforcement. But unlike the mythical monsters named above, the registry is a very real burden and dare I say, dangerous scheme that does more harm than good.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Don&#039;t studies like this address the &quot;rational basis&quot; prong in determining if a statute is punitive (Hence ex-post facto)?

How can courts continue to uphold this nonsense, given that we have scientific research  ...  and our haters have only supposition and tarot cards? (They consult a crystal ball to exclaim &quot;Perhaps the recidivism is under-reported!&quot; and &quot;Maybe each offender has many more victims that are never reported!&quot;)

We have facts and science and TRUTH. They have guesses and half-truths!

Advertise, my friends...advertise, advertise!!!

Lies (suppositions and tarot cards) don&#039;t like the light of day (They prefer the shadows of night - murkiness!)

Our TRUTH ... Our science prefers scrutiny and the light of day.

We cannot lose with the truth!

So go and tell, tell, tell!!!
Tell, tell, tell (as often as you can).

Their lies and hatred will wither as we constantly pour on the TRUTH!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Oh the registry is 100% effective.

It is effective in keeping all registrants in jail in their own homes.

It is effective in causing harassment by neighbors and even people who not our neighbors but come and bother us anyway.

It if effective in causing many to not find work, housing or even sometimes, a doctor.

It is effective in keeping us from having many friends or able to find and/or keep a job.

I could go on and on, but you all know the drill.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[While studies are good by government many governments overlook much of this sex registry issue. Playing a role in a devilish registry ruse via some internet is not just to lay on others. Does one trust in science or is the &quot;Why&quot; factor some abuse shadowed in darkness by this coy. When government leads others there is a greater factor involved that damages the trust and the character of government and others involved.

Biblical truth says two wrongs don&#039;t make a right or have we all sinned and fell short. Their is not a just man upon earth that doeth good and sinneth not. Government should take a real good look at this upsetting issue. Even many in Prison should not be there or does a inducement of this masquerade have to lead others as in these registry trap.]]></description>
