Senate passes Schumer-backed bill to open FBI sex offender database

[syracuse.com]

The operators of summer camps, daycare centers and volunteer groups that work with children are a step closer to gaining access to an FBI sex offender database that could be used for background checks on prospective employees and volunteers.

The U.S. Senate passed a bill backed by U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer that would close a loophole in the background check system and authorize the FBI to provide the information to organizations that work with children.

How many lists are needed? Sure lets have the agency that was running its’ own child porn site control a central list. It will be a list never to get off of, even if registry requirements are discontinued for an individual.

City-Data keeps its’ own list. Don’t have to use MEGAN’s list.

What about Home Security’s list.

How many lists are there anyway? We need a list of lists.

I suspect that the number of sex crimes against children in summer camps and schools actually INCREASES in the coming years. “Political Lawmakers” are cowards, so they pile on rso’s. It looks great for them in so many aspects. The poor children who will be sexually abused and their poor parents are NOT being protected because of self serving, piss poor legislation.

To whomever thinks Democrats are more friendly to our fight for constitutional rights than Republicans: they aren’t. All politicians are after one thing, reelection. When their fight for reelection or another cause happens to cross paths with our own, do not mistake it for support.

and Schumer gave $50,000.00 if I am correct to Laura Ahearne of PFML

Schumer. like his best friend Sex Offender Anthony Weiner are cut from the same piece of Brooklyn Cloth
