Source: mississippitoday.org 2/28/22

Mississippi Republicans have balked at expanding Medicaid, but are embracing legislation that would take advantage of the federal program to pay for healthcare for very sick incarcerated people…

Registrants and supporters, this hateful, hysteria-inducing bill should motivate you to constantly monitor your state’s upcoming bills on sites like https://legiscan.com/.

Then “Show Up, Stand Up, and Speak Up”! Write, call, and show up to your legislators to protest! Don’t wait for someone else to do this work for you. Take the initiative yourself to do this, then warn ACSOL and other supporters so others can help.

It’s too late for this bill since it passed, but you can be sure many more will keep coming like a plague until we all work together to fight them!

United, we can make a huge difference!

So basically it’s a low-key genocide if you have a sex offense in America.

Mississippi is paroling murderers, whose victims’ families were told would never be let out of prison. That’s the story here if you want to make trouble.

Plain vindictive action.

This just lights a fire under my butt to get get the F out of this country as soon as I can.
I’m in the process of moving my father, who has advanced dementia, into a board and care home. It’s incredibly complicated and I can’t imagine putting my own kids through this with me as a registrant.

Note: my wife runs Nursing homes. They facilities get 1k to 2k a day to take care of the patients. True story. The patients are all brain dead – I googled them online/names and some where 3 strikes/robbed a 99 cent store/one stole (woman) a car and didn’t realize a child was inside. They where obviously attacked inside and received head trauma. They are essentially vegetables! If on parole, no shackles. If considered incarcerated, shackled? A guard stays in the facility? It’s costing Ca millions! It’s really a joke!
