Essentially, if someone kidnaps, beats, assaults, maims, or kills a kid but don’t have any sexual connotation, he wants them off the registry. If someone shows his peepee accidentally while relieving himself on the side a a road, however, it’s lifetime on the shaming sheet for that guy.

What concerns to user is that the very man who argued on behalf of upholding the Alaskan version of the Whetterling act against ex-post scrutiny became the top man. No coincidence given the deep state’s need for ruling to create a way to gain unfettered use(s) of its databases in Utah. While most think the case was about the child sex offender when it was actually about the database.

Just change the stupid name to “past offenders registry”. It’s just as ineffective as a registry but more fair and accurate a label. Since when is having a sexual experience as a minor, no matter how non violent, become more threatening than someone that beats up a child to a pulp. I have been struck by adults. I still mistrust authority especially ones saying they are hitting you for the good of children.

Sounds like what he is looking for was what was in the Jacob Wetterling Act, which only effected people who committed sexually violent offenses or offenses against children, not the public pee-er, etc.
