					<description><![CDATA[I think reading this most of use can relate in some way. I have had support from family but that is not enough to feel free. The other day 2 cops came to my office and I went into panic attack! I have had thoughts of suicide while driving but the image of my son kept me strong! This needs to stop, it makes no sense after your prison sentence you have to be on a list for life! We need to show the courts the outcome of this registry is damaging for the community as q whole. We need to get numbers on how many crimes has been stopped because the registry and how many crimes has been solved because the registry ! If we can show less than 5% then there is no reason to keep this registry active when is causing only damage to the community!]]></description>

@finished.      You have my permission to back away from the edge.   Stand up, chest out, chin up.    
You obviously have writing skills.  Your thoughts are organized.  
You are aware of your surroundings.   
You are not unique.   You’re not alone.     You have potential to become better.    Last ditch efforts are not needed.   Small efforts over time is the answer.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://floridaactioncommittee.org/when-onerous-florida-laws-and-policies-lead-to-suicide/comment-page-1/#comment-61588&quot;&gt;P&lt;/a&gt;.

@P
If you commit suicide, the assholes win. 
Also, if you kill yourself, you are going to have more issues than you did on Earth when you have no explanation of why God should allow you in His heaven. They say the only unforgivable sin is denying God, but the scriptures do allude to others and I believe suicide is an unforgivable sin since you took that power away from the Father because your free will made the choice of where you spend eternity. 
Christ died for us, the least we can do is live for Him. And believe me, I have been in that darkest moments myself where I wanted to jump off a cliff. But I did not let the evil one control me and I was victorious over the power of Lucifer and his minions.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I think i can relate to where he was also.

I&#039;m glad to see some of you have been able to find some solice. For me,  good days are fewer and fewer, support is non-existent or unaffordable. The target i walk around with on my back and chain around my neck is not a realistic life to expect someone to live. . I was sexually abused as a child and thought I had put it behind me, but was wrong. I thought I would be OK 10 yrs after a 30 day sentence for a mistake in my state, but was wrong ( I visited FL while on probation and was added to their list) . I&#039;ve lost my wife, family, kids, friends and livelihood being on this list. 

My last ditch effort was looking for a state that I can survive off grid alone because life in this society is unsustainable mentally and i was looking for a change. A recent article on here about travel to other states completely changed my plans. The very next crisis will be the last one. ]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This story is profoundly sad.

We need more money for lawyers.  We need a fund raiser.       It’s not healthy for us to carry this burden of debt to society beyond a normal sentence.      We feel like targets.

I had thoughts of suicide this past year.    It’s the major depression that sets in.   This story is a terrible tragedy that shouldn’t have happened.    I will pray for his soul and afterlife.   I pray he is reincarnated into a freedom. 

As far as going to DC vigil.   We would need to hire professional protection to feel comfortable.     The political climate is very fluid at the moment.   Very much in flux.   The Constitution has taken a beating. A lot of good people deserve a better life.   Now.]]></description>
