Group that promotes ‘rational sex offense laws’ says it’ll open Halloween hotline (NARSOL)

A group that says it advocates for ‘rational sexual offense laws’ is organizing a nationwide Halloween hotline and vows to hold local governments, law enforcement agencies and parole/probation officers accountable if “the constitutional rights of law-abiding, registered sex offenders are violated under the pretext of protecting the public on Halloween.” Full Article

Thank you, ACSOL, for cross-promoting this with/for NARSOL. Great job–

Also, NARSOL’s map at the link above… is hysterical (and sad) at the same time. An excellent visual to go against Patch and the rest of the scaremongering media…

Paul Dubbeling will be on the call which makes it interesting to listen in on…

This is awesome, taking the offensive. This is how we will get results. Stop sitting back and letting the hate mongers abuse a minority. Make them pay the consequences.

Maybe I’m wrong, but the article seems a little derisive to me when they put quotes around the phrase rational sex offense laws.

Also, I’m pretty sure Vanderwall is (deliberately?) misquoted:

“Every credible study overwhelmingly demonstrates that more than 90% of the sexual assaults which occur this Halloween will be committed by someone already known and trusted by the victim and not by anyone on the sex offender registry.”

Again, I could be wrong but Vanderwall knows full well no SO will be committed this Halloween and am pretty sure he knows better than to allude otherwise.

Nice that Janice kept some of us company at NARSOL’s Halloween party. Love the cooperation between two of our largest organizations. Glad to be a contributor to both. The update on IML was so close to home. I lived it during my last Europe trip. (Revoked passport and all). I haven’t re-applied yet. I assume it’s a 50/50 chance that I get a new one without the identifier. In which case I get one trip and will be revoked again. Expensive way to travel. (I am confident I can supply sufficient info along with my application to get an identifier as a friend of mine did.)
Anyway… Thanks again Janice. It gives me hope to see cooperation across the US in our battle to live free and fulfilling lives.
May I also say a favorite holiday for my family and I (Halloween) so now sucks and is depressing.
Thanks to NARSOL for their fight and their support.
