Amen to that ! All of us who are registered and family members and true friends must unite. Together we can be a voice for reasonable justice and a voice for a second chance in life. Drug dealers get a chance then why no us. Reasonable politicians need to be picked out and voted into office, not fear mongering double talk politicians. United we can make this happen.

On the case of Packing ham & the implications upon free speech. I point your attention to a MI attorney actively on the DDI, in the form of a YouTube contributor @Lehtoslaw.
Steve Lehto is specialized in lemon law but in his podcasts discussions cover many aspects concerning the color of law. Today’s posting ( Sunday) has to do with speech. The fact that he specializes in lemon law for me wreaks of the man in charge of my actions here and now.
That being me describing SOR as a lemon to bitter to swallow per upset to my guts. The title of Mr. Lehtos relevant piece is: Judges Agree that Journalism Could be Outlawed in TX. Does that sound like a free speech to you Captain? Clearly Packingham identified the attempt to ban speech by the people. That fact all by itself declared a certain dispositions and attitudes of those people’s persistence. Stevens post coincides coincidently with the letter I sent to my local small town newspaper, the BDN.
A letter in which I decry the enemy and lent example to the editor, A Mr. Wolfe, relating how local news papers & the “sex offender” are in the same boat – more or less. How internet news has demolished the circulation and general well being of Journalism in America. I wrote about dropping attention spans I wrote about the availability of porn, lawful and not. I talked children, I talked about Mr. Brooks – a compliant offender. Mr Brooks is the guy who ran over folks in an Christmas parade here in WI last year, who infamous actions were exacerbated by the DDI during his pro se trial.. I made that same point to the editor-. Was his being a registrant, play a role in his crimes? I make no direct correlation at this point, but I wonder if it did. Sometimes the line between fame and infamy is thin indeed.

I can certainly relate as a woman who’s been on the Virginia registry for the past 12 years, ridiculously labeled for life as a violent offender. I know a good bit about the injustice of our system and I agree with you that we both would have been better off if we’d committed murder. Ironically, I would never harm another human. It’s upsetting that there are so many decent people whose lives have been irrevocably destroyed by the unreasonable fear and those who capitalize on it. I’m sorry that your 29 years of service have not been honored but I do thank you for your dediction to serving our country and I pray that you will find some justice. Keep fighting the good fight.

I salute you. Your ongoing service to the cause of freedom will not be forgotten.

As a OS1 Navy EOD that served with honor and distinction, I first and foremost want to say thank you for your service. Not to the Navy, but to the cause we in the Navy and every branch felt we served for. The freedoms we earned as Americans. The freedoms challenged by the registry.
I connect with so many experiences you have had. I left the active service in ‘91. I too lost my wife and committed my offense soon after. While considered a misdemeanor, it has none the less cost me my occupation as a geriatric Physical Therapist. And like you, my community seems to have moved past my mistake, but the government can’t seem to do the same.
I consider myself lucky, since I haven’t had the issues with the V.A. here in California that others in different states have had.
In closing, I have a gut feeling ( something that EODs seem to develop better than most and what likely kept me alive), that I would have enjoyed and been honored serving under your command.

You are so right. The kids suffer so much for something they didn;t even know about until they started being bullied at school because some parent saw it on the registry. It needs to be abolished for sure. It’s not protecting our kids it’s destroying them.

Also, it’s possible that this base access denial is for more than RSOs, ultimately. DoD I’ve heard is now using IMESA and DBIDS for base access, and those hit NCIC looking for any felonies. They can easily flag whatever they want, I imagine.

Good luck with everything!

Steve, I agree this seems to be a Base CC decision. It is His/Her base and they can bar anyone if they believe it is in the best interest of safety and security. Best thing to do is write the Base CC and see if you can get the decision repealed, if not go to his/her superior. Or the Capt can wait it out until there is a new Base CC and see if they will allow him access. FYI. I’m a 24 year veteran with an honorable discharge, but was given the decision of being boarded which would have led to a OTH discharge or just walk without a retirement and take the honorable. I took the honorable. Tried to appeal to the AFBCMR for my retirement, but they denied it.

Sandy,
I only wished the public cared. I’ve personally seen people fall for the misinformation and distortion of facts. In Oklahoma, citizens fall for these political tactics that politicians use to gain votes.
I wholeheartedly agree. The registry must go!

We all know when you can tell a lawyer or politician is lying-their mouths are moving!
