this is such an outrage to subject people to a lifetime wearing a monitor or registration but for a kids for the rest of their lives..outrageous…theres no way in helllll I would do it. I still feel phantom vibrations on my leg after wearing one for two and half years. there’s no way. there would be another aurora Colorado or sandy hook. this can’t continue something really bad is going to happen..can you imagine what the parents of these kids kids are thinking. I bet they aren’t to thrilled with this crap….
I wouldn’t expect much different from a Rightist state with a Rightist state Supreme Court.
I wonder how many of these lawmakers and judges did the same thing when they were kids?

He eventually became the police chief of the city I currently live in, until his retirement.
