Ignorance upon ignorance.
The attorney for the school board thinks it’s “regrettable” that a person who is registered can visit his child or child’s teacher at school? Or attend a school related extracurricular activity.

What the hell does he think that person is going to do? Use the visit, or attending the event, as a “beard” to mask his real desire to sexually assault a kid on the campus or at the event?

Clearly he is saying as much. That is why they must “be careful”. WOW!

He also as much as said that ALL the people they know of who are registeded, and have kids at the schools, as SVPs, who can’t be trusted to control themselves around children, so they have to carefully be monitored. Again, WOW!

If a student at any school in the United States is going to be molested on school grounds, it’s most likely going to be by a teacher or another official, or by another student in that school.

What kinds of things do they have in place to ensure that isn’t going to happen?

When has all this become ‘real’? The status quo? Are people even realizing how absurd all of this has gotten?

“We have those procedures (in place) because we control access to the building with locked doors, entrance cameras and those kinds of things”

“It’s regrettable, but we have a situation where convicted sex offenders still retain rights to see their children or visit the school on certain occasions,”

“it’s in an open, public setting in a football stadium”

These statements just stand – from officials, the media, without being questioned?

I challenge you to find another country where people are more locked up and more afraid than in the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.
