That is the purpose of the political sphere…to debate things such as this and its type, Sir. You are ignorant to think otherwise and a bully to shut it down.

Ineffective measures such as these waste taxpayer money that needs to be tracked to the penny to ensure the taxpayer is getting them most of what they are forced to pay just to living in society.

Building your political career upon the fear such as these misrepresented stats is nothing but weakness in action since it shows there is nothing else one can positively build upon with facts backing them while running for office.

Concerning out PFR groups they recieved awards for;
THIS MOST CONCERNING- The “Innovation of the Year” award at the First Annual DHS/Florida Homeland Security Ceremony was presented to the Operation Locator II Team from the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) Headquarters. The award recognized the team’s creative and technologically advanced strategies to track down and locate high-risk sex offenders absconding or living unlawfully across the state of Florida. Rather than traditional passive tracking, this unit pioneered proactive system updates and data-sharing methods across local, state, and federal networks to successfully pinpoint non-compliant offenders

Polk Around & Find Out II (October 2026)

We know the more of us that get arrested, they can tout that they are “Making the cities safe from these paperwork bandits”. That was my take on it, and not meaning it to be funny but it would be if it was a joke, but it is no laughing matter. People are going to jail for a paperwork error, or not reporting an email account they forgot about and no longer use.

Why are jails being filled up with people who made a simple paperwork mistake that no other group of people can be arrested for unless they are on the registry. And it is not just a few days in jail, you also often will lose your right to ever get off the registry in many cases as that mistake counts as an another arrest.

The public also deserves to know how many of the 2,000 arrests had no victim because they were the result of shady online stings where the arrested were on adult sites looking for adults. The police don’t reveal that number when they boast about their arrests because it contradicts their claims that they are saving children when in reality they are destroying families.
