The question that I would love to ask is it he/she (or course it will be a he but I have to be PC) has read the United States Constitution and if yes, do they intend on honoring it as the past few Florida governors clearly have not done either.
What a refreshing change that would be!
Whay is Loren Book allowed to use her victim status to keep harsher laws against sex offenders where other states actually look at statistics before making sexoffender laws? How is Ron Book still head of homeless trust when he has contradicting interests, using his power as homeless trust board member to keep the sex offenders far from their families and on the streets?
Thanks for the contributions – Ron Book is chair of the Miami-Dade homeless trust, not the state.
Would they support strictly evidence-based policy making towards registered citizens, including potentially turning back many laws if they are found to be ineffective and wasteful?
Something along these lines ^
Here is one question they all should answer: As Governor, will you officially recognize and publicy state that the sex offender registry is a punitive sanction with criminal penalties that violate constitutional protections prohibiting ex post facto legislation, cruel and unusual punishment, as well as compulsory self-incrimination?
When can I get my rights back? When will we get a tiered system here like other states are slowly going to?
Would you consider revising some of Florida’s harsh Sex Offender Laws, for low level non-contact offenders? Some of these laws include:
Residency Restrictions
In Person Notification if travel is more than 3 days
Being an SO there are no expectations of privacy and enjoyment of the natural freedoms given in the Constitution.
