ACLU Oppose Sex Offender Billboards
This is a great idea, I wish Michigan would start doing this. Of course the ACLU is going to complain about this, they have nothing better to do than defend convicted criminals.
Hat tip: Assorted Babble
In Mississippi billboards picturing sex offenders are being erected, but of course not without the NAMBLA supporting ACLU trying to stop it.
The Mississippi Department of Human Services has begun to adorn 100 roadside billboards with the images and offense descriptions of convicted sex offenders, particularly …

I Think it is sickining that a state in the Country would put up billboards of this nature.
What does this have to do with Public notification?
What is going to happen is that if these states keep taking away civil rights from sex offenders then they will stop registering all together. I know I would.
What I think is pathetic is that people are so quick to assume someone is guilty. We seem to forget how horrible of a justice system we have in this country, yet we believe that every person who’s convited as a sex offender is guilty. Nevermind the fact that innocent people are convicted every day. So what happens? Missinformed people like yourself strive to ruin their lives even more. How would you feel if someone made up a charge against you for some reason, and you were convicted, then you suddenly had the hatred of the entire world on your shoulders. Millions of people trying to destroy your life and your freedom? Perhaps you should think about that before you start running off at the mouth. Im not saying that sex offences are good. Im saying that I believe in a person paying their debt to the public and then they should be done. There should be an end to a person sentence.
I AGREE THE SOCIETY NEEDS TO GET OFF THE CONVICTED SEX OFFENDER THAT DID NOT MOELEST A CHILD OR RAPE A PERSON AS TO A PARENT PRESSING CHARGES FOR A BOY FRIEND THIS SHOULD NOT BE A CASE I WANT TO SEE THE REAL SEX OFFENDERS ON THE LIST WHOM TOUCHED OR RAPED A CHILD! What about THE BOY FRIEND WHO SLLEPS WITH THE GIRL FRIEND AND THEN MARRYS HER AFTER ALL HAS BEEN SAID AND DONE HE IS STILL ON THE LIST HOW UNFAIR AND IT RUINS THEIR FAMILY THEY ARE LOOKED DOWN ON BY THE PEOPLE > THEY HAVE PAID THERE DUES AND TIME WE (THE LAW) NEEDS TO BACK OFF AND LET
THEM LIVE THERE LIVES NOT HAVE TO KEEP LOOKING BACK AT SOME THING STUPID.
