Sadly humorous that Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) wants to close the job loopholes for sex offenders.
Doesn't he get it?
Being listed on a sex offender registry pretty much kills any chance for gainful employment.
Period.
What's worse, Schumer is out spouting the same old tired lie.
"Sex offenders are different than just about any other criminal because the percent of recidivism is huge and the chance for rehabilitation is unfortunately small. ... Whatever demons haunt these people don't go away."
"I agree with a few of the other posters here that can see through this political grand standing. There are thousands of these people who have commited acts such as "peeing in a bush" or had sex with their underage girlfriend who is only a few months younger than them. Its funny how an 18 year old has sex with a 16 year old and they are considered a sexual predator and low life scum but if she is was 17...hey no problem. Hell people were getting married at 15 years old a century ago, now people would want you castrated. Keep it up people and you are going to have hundreds of thousands of jobless, homeless "sex offenders" who will have nothing to lose because the witch hunt that is going on today will make being a functioning member of society an impossible task."

I have been thinking about this a while now and I know I have asked it before without an answer on other blogs. Why can't lawmakers, news-caters, etc be sued for malice, libel when they pull the BS high re-offense rate, low change of reforming lie out of their ass? It fits the definition of it. They are grossly misleading a public audience with information that has been disproven and published. Hell many of these same asshat elected's have been in committee when the information is provided.
What attorney would go up against these guys?
Where there is legal money to be made, some attorney will usually be there to sue. It wouldn't be about making money off it, hell the person doing the suing would probably lose it. The thing is, start some cases and i wonder how fast their 'information' would dry up simply because the bluff had been called.
sorry lose it = lose money
From a portion of wikipedia on Patrick Henry: "March 23, 1775, in Saint John's Church in Richmond, Virginia. The House was undecided on whether to mobilize for military action against the encroaching British military force..."
Then his famous speech that ended" Give me Liberty or Give me death". Once said, he (Henry) left and went home to get his guns. It was only minutes later and the entire House of Burgesses was empty as everyone who heard Henry's speak went and did likewise.
If you can read this and understand, then GO!
If Bob O'Neill somehow slithers into power as USA middle district FL there will be so many sex offeners FRAMED that the soup lines will stretch from sea to shining sea.
PLEASE PLEASE FOR GOD'S SAKE be proactive and contact Senator Leahy and advise him to TRASH this appointment. He is the head of the senate judiciary committee. ONEILL IS A BAD BAD BAD VERY VERY VERY BAD MAN. He would frame your mother if he could. He would frame my mother but first he'll have to work through the rest of my family and she'll have to come back to life. He would frame a dead woman, though. He would. PLEASE contact LEAHY.
The recidivism rate for these so called crimes are less than that for most other crimes. Any honest family counselor will tell you that. Why is it that Sen Schumer can tell a bold face lie and not be called out by the press? Sorry. Bad question. We EXPECT them to lie. Follow the money. The answers are all there.
