A case with major implications for the constitutional rights of those on the registry is now headed to the Florida Supreme Court.
Attorneys for Michael Crist have filed a notice seeking review of an appellate decision that upheld Florida’s requirement that people classified as “sexual predators” have that exact phrase printed in bold letters on their driver’s licenses. Crist, who was accused in 2019 of trying to cover the label with a sticker, argued that the mandate violates the First Amendment by forcing individuals to carry and display the state’s message on personal identification.
While the 5th District Court of Appeal rejected that argument, Judge Scott Makar issued a powerful dissent, pointing out that compelled government speech must be narrowly tailored. Other states, including Louisiana and Alabama, have already ruled that such branding is unconstitutional. Makar noted that Florida could easily use a less intrusive method, such as a statute number or internal code (as it already does for individuals labeled “sex offenders”) rather than plastering stigmatizing words across an ID.
The majority opinion tried to downplay the harm by …
The registry did not begin as a caste. It became one.
The government forms – drivers licenses, passports, web identifiers – created a new race, a new group, a new ethnicity, a new caste. Branded not by ancestry, but by designation. These designations are affixed to psychological profiles, shared equally across those marked. The form does not ask. It assigns.
This branding is not symbolic. It is structural. It is projected across the internet, embedded in federal systems, and reinforced by global trace.
It is not a local ordinance. It is a federal doctrine. It is not a civil concern. It is constitutional harm.
By stating the factual markings, we invoke the racial profiling doctrine: Servitude = 24×7 per week + overtime x 52 weeks per year + vacation time pay (all federal and civil servants get this). Policing does not rest. This servitude is owed to the federally created race, caste, and group.
The illusion of civil protection is false. The markings on these institutions – governed by federal governments – prove so. The psychological mappings and profiling on federally mandated forms and global web announcements – public or private – prove structural branding, race, group, caste, and ethnicity.
Victims are harmed not by what is said, but by what is uniformly assigned. Names can be searched and tethered. Connections can be traced and affixed. Victim harm will be exposed – globally.
These atrocities are not isolated. They are federally administered, psychologically mapped, and structurally reinforced.
Churches enforce exclusion without theological basis. Shelters coordinate with law enforcement. Insurers deny coverage based on status. Volunteer programs and health services impose surveillance. These are not civil institutions. They are civilian enforcers of state punishment.
Registrants are denied housing, then criminalized for being unhoused. They are denied worship, then punished for seeking sanctuary. They are denied employment, then punished for poverty. They are denied privacy, then punished for exposure.
The registry is not a list. It is a doctrine. It is a system of caste, exclusion, and economic harm. It is a betrayal of every constitutional promise.

Coalition Disclaimer
This document is a survivor-centered indictment. It does not constitute legal advice, nor does it allege treason under Article III of the U.S. Constitution. The term “treasonous” is used symbolically to describe systemic betrayal of constitutional promises – liberty, dignity, privacy, due process, and equal protection – through federal branding, perpetual servitude, and caste enforcement.
All claims are framed for coalition documentation, memorial archives, and public awareness. Jurisdictional tags, economic estimates, and constitutional counts are based on survivor testimony, legal precedent, and coalition research.
Use with care. Post with context. Archive with integrity.
If it is anything like Missouri courts, it doesn’t matter if your argument is solid. They are heavily biased and judges are elected so dont expect truth to prevail.
