So this couldn’t have been fixed with a Restraining Order? It really needed a lawmaker’s work? Really?

“Loophole”? Umm, I believe it’s his right…oh wait, nevermind, he’s an RC, as in “Rights Cancelled.”

“Supposedly, he paid his debt to society and as long as he’s not near a church or a daycare or where children gather, he’s free to do as he wishes,” said Greg Dyer.

No, not “supposedly.” He did. Period. But let’s not let those “activist judges” get in the way of what the mob wants.

I love how every new law fixes a “loophole”. Pretty soon they are going to find the loophole that they let RCs out of prison/jail at all. The they will find the loophole that they let them live at all.
