Petition to Declare Public Sex Offender Registration in the United States a Violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR)
Today, approximately one-million people in the United States are forced to register as “sex offenders”. The label leads to stigmatization, separation from society, loss of employment, loss of housing and even exposure to violence at the hands of vigilantes. The stigmatization extends to the spouses, children, family, friends, employer and anyone that associates with the registrant. The isolation, shame, stress, fear of violence, loss of income and other psychological effects are experienced by the entire household.
Maybe some RSO’s in Florida should band together and file a lawsuit. In the community where I live RSO’s are only allowed on the county road, if they step one foot off they are arrested for trespassing.
It’s about time that these ‘do-gooder’ politicians are called to account for their foolish laws and ordinances.
Should they win, the individuals responsible for the damage caused by the laws they enacted should also be sued. Once personal responsibility enters the equation, all these laws that seemed like a good idea at the time suddenly won’t be seen as such.
