This is my response to someone who had issues with my post. She doesn't believe that there are individuals on the Sex Offender Registry for urinating in public nor underage teens (usually the males) having sex with their girlfreinds. My response:

You need to do a little more research on the subject. I spent a year and a half doing the reach for my book and yes people do get jail time, not long, for urinating in public but what is worse is they are put on the Sex Offender List for 10 to 25 years. Which in most states they receive the blaket of restrictions that a real sexual preditor receives which includes being told where they can and can not live and work. In 2011 the urination as well as the 'Romeo and Juliet' relationships, (look it up) are finally being exempted from the SOR. The connection to the sexual promiscuity is there are houndreds of thousands of men on the SOR for having sex with thier underage girlfriends (with some marrying them) and they have had to struggle making a living with the fathers not able to attend their childrens school and or church events because of the threat of being thrown in jail. The greatest injustice is the 5% of the true sex offenders who stalk and rape are lost in a sea of what is projected to be one million Sex Offenders on the SOR by 2017. Our officers struggle to effectively keep track of all the registrants. This from interviews conducted by retired judges, officers, many attorneys and felons.
