New Laws, New Punishment

As the years go by, most of us that are on the Registry see more and more 'restrictions' in our lives.  Yes, I know this is the home of the brave/free/bullshit-artists, but as American citizens our Constitutionally guaranteed freedoms get washed away with each new pen stroke of State and Federal governments.

The time is now, and I mean NOW to start pushing back.  Start writing your Congressional and State officials.  Let them know that this onslaught of infringements must stop.  Explain to them that as individuals we are weak, but with 700,000 people on the registry, we are a force to be reckoned with.  Do not threaten them, but allow them to understand that WE have the power to change things, like what businesses we shop at.  What services we purchase, What country we live in.  Then STICK TO IT! Many of us have jobs that allow for purchasing power.  Let them know that.  Choose to live a meager lifestyle, save your money, and help to kill your local economy.  If any service advertises they are 'Predator' free (which is totally another discussion), then ask your friends, family NOT to purchase anything from them.  When school send home stuff for your child to sell, return it with a note saying that they infringe your parental rights, thus you will not support their causes.  When the Fire department holds its funds drive, refuse to donate.  Don't give them a fucking dime.

I cannot say this will financially harm them, but it might atleast make people start to think about things a bit more.  Another thing.  Ensure that if you are presently unemployed, or underemployed, you use any social service that you can get your hands on to pay your bills.  Medical, power, water, anything.  If they want to drive us into servitude, then they are going to have to pay for us as well.
