Oh how unsurprising….how about the story where Adam Walsh freaks out because the members of the house of representatives overwhelmingly no longer support the Adam Walsh act and subsequently fail in reauthorizating it? That’s going to be a delightful day.

More trash passes for there own personal, financial and political gain. What children are really protected?

Ok, Call me an idiot but how does this affect all the lawsuits around the Country such as Michigan’s Does v Snyder and the N.C. case that I can’t remember right now or will it even effect them at all, what also gets me is the Adam Walsh Act, was named for a child that was Murdered NOT Sexually Assaulted. The other thing is WHY is John Walsh not on the Registry his girlfriend now, wife was 16 and he was 23 when they started dating, from stuff I have read. These laws are as useless as a P.P.O.

These assholes can’t seem to get anything done but this…THIS they have no problem with.

Great for manipulating the ignorant masses so they are never gonna let this one go!

Our government just doing it’s work – HAHAHA

…to continue saving the lives of no one…

People make mistakes. That is inevitable. Those that are reflective enough to learn from them will not make them again.

The opportunistic politicians who manipulate the public to believe us to be monsters: They are the true evil. They repeat their lies over and over for the sole purpose of keeping their small, temporary and ultimately illusory power.

It makes no difference. You, politicians, greedy and corrupt, I swear to you, you will not rule me. I will be dead soon enough, but still you will not control me.

I will greet whatever comes next with clear conscience and calm mind.

I am not my worst mistakes. I am not my past. Despite your best efforts, you will not define me as such.

This I promise my soul.

Some evil men hurt children with a weapon, like the recent terrorist attack. Others like our legislators do it with a pen.

It sounds almost comical if it wasn’t so serious to hear legislators say… “If it saves one child.” Then push to take away kids health care, food stamps and kids safety net programs.

Watch the YouTube on this silly bunch of nonsense and realize this group of clowns are so out of touch they don’t get lots of kids are going to get hurt in a effort to save money. I can’t help but think… How many kids get to die to save money? I honestly don’t have much faith in either political party.

As much as I hate any public registry at all, right now I’d welcome California actually being Adam Walsh compliant. At least then we’d have a real timeline with seemingly far easier way to end your registration than what we currently have or even what’s being proposed in our tiered registry. Oh to pine for being punched in the face than kicked in the groin.
