Holy shit. This is huge.
The link below, is an official Ny State website, stating that “the registry” has collateral consequences of shaming and violence against those on it. Wow!! Just Wow!!

Yeah, so how long are the civil rights attorneys going to keep sitting in their hands in the fight? Sure as hell am not going to shame the criminal politicians into compliance with international law.
This is awesome, just remember, This was a presentation condemning the registry by a registrant. Not condemned by the UN. Which still holds significant. For a registrant to actually be able to speak to political leaders is huge. That certainly won’t happen in the US anytime soon. That’s like guarantee death threats, media making sure you are viewed as an evil pedophile hunting children, and probably harassment of your family in the US if one of us did that. Even if the UN did condemn the USA, nothing would come. USA has always been a do as I say, not as I do. I’m not trying to be pessimistic, I’m trying to be real here. This was back in March. I’ve been following this guy. His story is awesome, hilarious, and sad. And I do think he is, and will continue to make a difference over seas in regards to sex offenders. America has the most stubborn leaders in the world. They never admit when they are wrong, and they are the last to change anything even when evidence says otherwise. Until we get some new blood in congress, I think we are looking at a decade or more left of this God Forsaken registry. I hope hope hope I’m wrong. I predict it will be like the drug war on weed.. it takes a long time.. unless.. the supreme court actually listens to a case again condemning the registry as a whole, and they vote in it. To me that’s the best chance we have.. a lot easier to convince a few people who can’t be touched no matter how they rule, than hundreds of politicians who’s livelyhoods depend on voters perception of them.
The public does not need to be convinced that it’s a human right’s violation and an affront to common decency, they already know it is! They predictably just DO NOT care. Especially the ones that want to “tattoo it on their foreheads” Only the lowest form of white trash uses the registry anyway. I’m talking about the ones that never miss an episode of Dr. Phil and want to know everyone’s business, but get offended when others want to know theirs’.
The publicly-accessible registry is an aberration that exposes the dark underbelly of democracy.
United States claims to be the leader of the free world; yet that’s only true when it comes to having the highest incarceration rate. When it comes to freedom, education and healthcare the United States is ranked twenty something. This country from the government on down to the citizens need a good kick in the butt.
Courage,
That’s what it takes people. He is absolutely correct. Sex offender registration is plain human indenture to machine database. As Isaac Asimov described it: MV < HV=Null. Therein is a certain relative disposition between man and machine that must be maintained.
Any other disposition, even for some, is death to any republic of free men, women and children.
U.S.A Pure Evil Government ! Depriving its own citizens the constitution too live a free & equal life after a conviction has been served & in most cases they have applied these unjust barbaric disabling punitive punishment retroactively too hundreds of thousands of its own citizens. They need too be held accountable and have to compensate the thousands of citizens they have put in Danger and held down for so many years.
Unfortunately this also isn’t exactly the first time US registration has been addressed by the UN though this may be the most in depth they have gotten regarding it.
Human Rights Watch addressed this in 2007 which mirrors what
the UN meeting was saying. This may have been posted before on here but you can find that here: https://www.hrw.org/reports/2007/us0907/10.htm
The passport law was passed prior to his leaving (2016). It is not the result of his leaving. Misinformation does little to bolster your points.
River did not escape prison via a helicopter, he attempted to escape and got a 10 yr charge for it. ” It was this case and the embarrassment caused to the State of Florida that finally pushed the passport bill through”… I’m not sure that is correct either. “He claims to be living free in Germany”… he IS living in Germany and he IS free from the US tyranny. Get you facts straight rpsabq.
The U.S. won’t acknowledge it’s human rights violation’s until it is no longer the preeminent economic and military power. Let us (as a nationalist I hate to state this) pray our decline happens quickly and soon?
Time to stop with the us court system and begin to use their repetitive circle jerking of legal standards and begin to hit them 8n the wallet and in the human rights arena before the world. It’s time to show Europe and everyone else how far America and its people have fallen in the 21 st century and make it record.
The public misuse of this is harmful to everyone and its misuse is downplayed by government and not considering of harm to anyone associated to ex pffwnders. With this type of public humiliation forced upon anyone, how could they expect a fair reentry into society AFTER doing the time. Double jeopardy and I don’t care what you’ve done..
Times are diffent and this public display, in which promises a life of doom to anyone listed on this registry is unacceptable and should’ve NEVER been allowed. It hasn’t helped anyone but it’s co tinueing and fueling hate crimes and vigilance toward possibly innocent if not reformed past offenders. Cruel to say the least in this country that’s proudly standing on “In God We Trust” of God forgives all sons then who are we to go above God to say anything different? Only hate fueling illogical judgemental without truth of fair forethoughts of their own are entertaining the very outdated, mandated, harmful, and not to mention insane law. Done the time then you have no probation or parole left to allow grounds for this based on any law placed upon another person that’s not enforceable to any and all felon related incidents guilty or not and it happens. You are one false allegation away from that registry yourself. Never think it can’t happen.
