It’s hard to think of a class of people more reviled in America than sex offenders. This is due to both the appalling nature of the offense and the belief that they are at high risk to reoffend. Thus society imposes burdens and disabilities on them that not even murderers or drug dealers are subject to. In a few cases, these include being held beyond the completion of their prison sentences, but much more frequently involve restrictions on where they can live and requirements to register with authorities to be included on a publicly accessible registry of sex offenders.

This Assistant attorney general and her kind are liars. It’s they that provide the lies that has the public intoxicated with the lies that facilitate the mass violation of ex post facto laws.
“The registry does not cause … reputational damage, nor do any of the amendments,” Assistant Attorney General Dianne Martin told the court. The state argues that the restrictions are only in place to keep track of sex offenders.
This is so wrong, and this anti American kind of logic must be stamped out.
