WI: 16% of homeless individuals are released sex offenders
The Wisconsin State Assembly has approved new legislation that would require sex offenders who are homeless to wear GPS ankle monitors – even those not on probation – as a way to track their whereabouts. The bill garnered strong bipartisan support in the Assembly with an overwhelming vote in favor and had already passed the State Senate before moving to Gov. Tony Evers for consideration.
Critics raised concerns that broad monitoring requirements might not account for the complexities of homelessness or effective reintegration, and there are ongoing legal debates about the scope and constitutionality of GPS monitoring laws for sex offenders.

Just another way for the government to enslave registered citizens and violate our constitutional civil rights.
Yet again being homeless is now a crime so to speak. This is beyond lunacy. As a society overall we have really failed at teaching and encouraging human rights. Too many people thing the government gives you your rights and are not based on inherent human rights.
What gets me most is the constant stupidity that destabilizing people some how provides safety.
