And I am sure it will be a totally SEXIST presentation. focusing SOLEY on MALE sex offenders. As if Female Sex offenders don't exist!

Almost every month there is a story in paper about a women having sex with underage kids.

"“If you have children or even considering having a family someday, this is a must see presentation," McDyre said." Yet no one under 18 is invited to attend. I guess the 16 or 17 year old parents are too delicate to learn the red flags on how to keep themselves, their friends, and their children safe.

This article is certainly sending mixed signals. Even its title is misleading; it appears to me it should be "Community Safety Presentation" rather than going for the shock value of "Sex Offender Presentation." A child is at much less danger of being a victim of someone on the registry than he is of being a victim of a family member or other trusted adult in his life, yet the article barely hints at this fact and instead devotes a good third of its space in taking parents step by step through how to access the registry. There is one ray of hope; if evidence-based management is truly used in regard to the registrants of your community, then there is hope that the program may be worthwhile. I would suggest that Mr. Domizio and any others responsible for this article and its title be in attendance.

Shelly - Thank you for your points. We will be in attendance and covering this meeting for the site. Thank you for pointing out that a child is at much less danger of being a victim of someone on the registry than he is of being a victim of a family member or other trusted adult in his life. Perhaps it will be brought up at the presentation. As far as the step-by-step, it was our way of letting anyone know how to find registered sex offenders in their neighborhoods.

BJ - Those under 18 are not RECOMMENDED to attend, but they surely will not be turned away if they come to the presentation, I'm sure

I agree with Shelly, the title of the presentation itself is misleading. It has been consistently proven that convicted sex offenders have one of the lowest recidivism rates of all other felons, and 93-97% of children who are sexually abused are victimized by someone they know and trust who has never been convicted of a sex crime, therefore not on the registry. I've talked to hundreds of parents and community members about this topic, and once they hear the word "sex offender", they don't want to hear anything else. They don't believe the statistics, even when provided with the sources. People just look for excuses to blame a particular group of people because it's easier than being vigilant. I hate to sound so caught up in semantics, but I think calling the presentation something like "Sex Abuse Prevention" would help people be more open minded.

I also agree that teenagers should be encouraged to attend. The longer we pretend teens aren't sexually active, the more of them will wind up in jail because we can't accept it's happening. The least we can do is educate them on situations that they will likely be in at some point.

I love how Shana downplays what happened to her fiance's sister. "There was no intercourse, there was no violence, it was mutal touching of genitals and some oral contact." Well, that's not so bad, is it? JFC. I won't even go into all of the obvious lies in her videos, like the fact that judges don't offer plea agreements, but let's just take a look at this:
http://www.homefacts.com/offender-detail/NY28695/Geoff-Boudreau.html is her fiance, but if you look him up on http://nsopr.gov, you will see that he is designated as a SEXUALLY VIOLENT OFFENDER! How does that happen? What's the story to go along with that? Time (well, Shana) will tell, I'm sure. More at http://evil-unveiled.com/Reform_Sex_Offender_Laws_Campaign about how RSO activists have the goal of abolishing sex offender registries and would like to see all sex offender laws go away.

The term the pedophiles use is "AoA" or Age of Attraction. I'm willing to bet ole Shana ain't gettin none, she's too old for him.

They always lie, though. Wonder how many phone calls Shana had with Tom Reeves, ooops! I mean, Alex Marbury, FOUNDER of NAMBLA. She is in charge of the NY RSOL page and group, after all. The New York chapter of NAMBLA child rapists.

http://www.reformsexoffenderlaws.org/mm.php THE MINUTE MEN! and the women who love them. aw.

I am surprised most of the offenders arent busy writing wonderful remembrances of old Tom aka Alex since his death..(which by the way) couldnt have come too soon and should have had a needle stuck in his arm twenty years ago..I'll have to look and see if he has one of those Obit pages where people can leave their heartfelt memories of him..that should be fun..

Your killin me..I am laughing so hard..I 'm in ...

I did read a former FBI's account of his infiltation of Nambla a few years ago. They had a meeting in Miami and he has the minutes of that meeting ..very interesting how they assigned members to "front various causes for donations" and contributions and other BS forms of garnering funds. Obviously having "access to trips" arranging sex with children gets expensive. It was mentioned some memberships into Nambla were running as high as 15 thousand a month. Of course with that comes "friendly attorney's on retainers" pre-arranged and pre-paid young companions of the members preferences and all the visuals one could ask for with encrypted and "safe" websites with their very own computer guru help when needed.. the agent said " I went undercover on just about any criminal enterprize in my career, I have never been so disturbed by any one group as this one"

And it was all laundered through gayme magazine. I do wonder about The Guide.

Valerie, you and Cynthia do know that this article is over a month old, that no one but you two and by a fluke me have looked at it or written anything here in a month, don't you? You two have been playing Abbott and Costello to each other. Wouldn't it be easier if you just emailed?

The problem is, as this article fails to mention, the so-called, evidence based protocols to manage people in the community do not exist. It is just legislation poured over a group of people, passed ex-post facto, without hearing.

Members of the community are invited, except one class, and as usual that class will not be able to say anything, or make any presentations on their behalf.

It is the taking of freedom without trial, outside of a court of law and is the precedence that will destroy any pretence that America is a free country.

Outrage is the test for laws, and outrage is as transferable as a bank check. Look for your loved ones on a registry soon.

Going after someone personally simply because they disagree with your point of view is a violation of the terms and services for commenting.

Are you that weak in your arguments, that all you have is to point fingers and call names????
