Everyone should watch the documentary on Harvey Milk. The parallels between the early struggles of the LGBTQ community and the ways in which they were thought of, treated by “moral” leaders, and ostracized by their fellow citizens is something that we all can relate to.

America’s Dad, Bill Cosby, just had his conviction overturned in the PASC because he was not supposed to be charged based on a promise from the prior prosecuting atty they wouldn’t prosecute him which the subsequent and actual prosecuting atty did not honor (despite no written evidence of a promise made). What a turn of events!

I received another notice today that I have been selected for jury duty. Different from previous notices, they wanted me to go online to verify that I met the qualification. So I went to the webpage and scrolled down to the check box that says I have been convicted of a felony, only to discover that a felony conviction was no longer a disqualification for jury duty, unless you are incarcerated, on parole, or on probation. I was thinking, wow, they might actually want me on a jury?
But then I saw the next line on the list of disqualifications: Required to register as a sex offender. So I checked that box and clicked the Submit button. My juror status changed from Active to Ended, so my short time as an active juror was done!

California is ending no questions unemployment july 11th. After that you need to look for a job. That will be easy. I will just put on every application that I am a registrant . Then when they turn me down, I will be able to continue collecting.

This is interesting…..

It was 2003. “Victim” was 17; she was 21. How now, 18 years later, is she considered a high risk offender? What measure/tool do they use? It is my understanding that all the risk assessment tools (such as the Static-99) are only applicable (1) to male offenders and (2) at the time of the offense – not two decades later.
I don’t know the details, but this reads like a Romeo-Juliet …. or rather, a Juliet-Romeo situation.

This article is interesting – it mentions California’s new Tiered Registry law:

(It also inappropriately uses a medical designation [pedophile]. But it’s Fox News, so what can one expect?)

Can someone help me. Where do I turn in the petition papers? Thank you
