Yes, myoung you are correct, well mostly. A requirement to register is a requirement to register and enforceable under the law. As a fellow Pennsyltuckian I remember when I was set to be released from state prison. Another man on my block was also being released but where I had a home he did not. Oh, the staff was wonderful, they called and wrote letters to The Salvation Army, Y.M.C.A., local homeless shelters and all the other places that the prison social worker recommended. I am serious when I write that they really tried to help this man. And he did all he could to help himself as well. But making 32 cents an hour did not allow for much of a bank roll.

The down side was that this guy was a repeat offender (first crime was car theft) and so no place would accept him. He had no money (no you don’t get a big check when you walk out the gates) and no family. He left the same day as I and while I walked out and got into a car, he did to, but it was a police cruiser. They had no choice but to arrest him and I was not even allowed to intervene (I was on parole at the time).

The evening news was full of the local prosecutor reveling in how he managed to clear the streets of yet another “scum” and put him back in prison. So after doing a ten year sentence he was now looking at another seven years (the penalty at the time) for failing to properly register. Even the judge felt sorry for the situation but the law was the law.

No I am not trying to negate this man’s crimes or the pain he caused. I am only referring to the blind laws that are drafted and enacted with little thought as to how they will play out in the coming years. Reactionary legislation that is the foundation for removing yet more civil liberties, and all under the guise of protecting us all. I mean just look at the invasion that has been enacted all in the name of “Homeland Protection.”

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.
