For anyone interested, I have been exchanging a few emails with Ronald Book for a few days now. I didn’t think he actually read the emails that are sent to his address, but he does (ron@rlbookpa.com). I cannot say that I encourage anyone to email him, because it is very clear that he is extremely biased to one-side, and I have seen absolutely zero indication that he plans to offer and evidence for his extreme views. Based on his brief emails, he believes anyone convicted of any ‘sex crime’ is a “predator” who should “never have contact with children”. His favorite line to me was “…and you somehow think of predators can be rehabilitated.” Keep in mind I said my email pertains to ALL of the 900,000 registrants, even as young as 10 years of age. Ronald Book believes all 900,000 registrants are predators and they belong on the registry for life as well as should have no contact with children. These are his own words.
Here is my reply today, to which I am very interested to see what he will say:
I surely hope you will take a thorough and detailed look through them, if you haven’t.
For someone that seems to take a strictly one-sided position (based on what you have written in these emails so far), it would be beneficial for your cause if you are able to argue the points in these articles, seeing as you are pushing for certain laws that go against what these articles present. I am sure you will be invited to more TV appearances, and you will be asked to factually refute information, unlike what happened this past week at the news station.
If you can refute the claims in these articles with other peer-reviewed facts, I will GLADLY champion for your laws and efforts as well as donate whenever possible.
However, if you are not able to refute these claims, I promise to aggressively donate to multiple organizations that I am aware of that bring lawsuits to cities/states which try to pass laws that go against science, the type of science that is laid out in black-and-white in articles such as the ones above.
To me, as a rational/logical thinker that tries to take an unbiased open-minded approach, if a person cannot refute such scientific claims (and there are many outside of just these 2 articles), then I have to assume that such person has a strong personal bias/agenda, which tells me that such laws will not stand up to scrutiny, and will be outlawed.
I look forward to your thoughts.
Best Regards,

I finally got around to seeing the video. It was a good debate.
The news channel sided with Mrs/Ms Baker. The channel shared the map to where it revealed very minimal places ex-sex offenders can live. But what I really like was the anchor followed up on Mrs/Ms Baker agreeing that Ron Book’s homeless organization team has helped six ex-offenders find residency in the homeless shelters and the anchor rhetorically asked Book, “That is six out of how many?”
Baker cited over 200 ex-offenders lived in that camp site and over 400 were registered transients.
But what really took the cake was Book exclaiming, “sex offenders cannot be cured”. Wow. just wow.

I sent an email to Mr.Book and pointed out some errors in his thinking . His response email was, well, not very nice.
Response,
“You are an ignorant ass, so my instinct is to tell you to go fuck yourself and lose my email, but I will attempt to be restrained.”
“The difference between you and me is that I am not a sexual deviant behaving human being and you are!
Sexual Predators are not fixable, even your own experts say so.the best they can say is they have taught you what triggers you to violate children.
You are a despicable human being and I will keep my opinion to myself.”
I have to point out that there is no way from my email that he could have concluded that I was a S.O. , nor did I use any degrading or offensive language.
