What is good for one should be good for all violent crimes. Sex Offenders should not be discriminated. The Sexual Civil Commitment Law need to be eliminated.

One such ordinance was struck down by the state and there were a couple successful lawsuits, but that has only slowed down, not stopped the passing of ordinances.

I pray Minneapolis and St Paul will never pass any such ordinances.

Wisconsin has already countered this tactic by utilizing feeding tubes and restraint chairs. I do not recall the entire context and I may not attach a hyperlink, but it was in a state institution. Same story a man refused to eat or drink. WI Supreme Court upheld the practice of forced feeding. WI uses a facility named Sand hill to house and ” treat” those tried under Sect.980. I know a few of them. For the most part they are highly volatile individuals prone to emotional outburst and impulsive aggression. Obviously these individuals display the same behavior while incarcerated, although it plays out in different ways. i think it is incredible how few attacks on staff occur at these facilities given the individuals involved. Obviously medication plays a large role.
