The amount of registrants has gone up because legislators keep adding ways to get put on it that have nothing to do with rape or child molestation.
Perverts? Train them by showing a picture of Bill Clinton.
Great article. Those guys who stare in public, and don’t seem to be doing much of the same thing others are doing, are well-described. They are not just at retail stores, though. They are at the zoo, at the art gallery, at the history museum, the public library, they are anywhere that families with children are, and they often don’t quite fit in.
Listen to your gut.
I could not sleep in a hotel one night in New Jersey with my family when a woman sneered at me as we went off the elevator, “Your kids are blonde, those are the ones they want.” I could not wait to get out of that place. I felt evil all around us. And blonde hair or not, predators just go for the opportunity that presents.
I’m not saying to not be vigilant.
But I am saying that the media and people like Nancy Grace have sensationalized sex offenders so much that they have some people believing that there is a pedophile on every street corner. When in reality pedophiles are very rare.
There should be only two things that get you on the registry. Child molestation, and sexual assault.
But there are tons of non contact crimes and all sorts of other ones that will get you on it.
Avoid the restrooms ar Disneyland:

>>A MAN IN THE WOMEN’S RESTROOM AT DISNEYLAND
(snip)
I was off to the side waiting with the two boys, when I noticed a man walk into the restroom. My first thought was “Oh sh*t, he’s walked in the wrong restroom by mistake. lol” He took a few more steps, at which point he would’ve definitely noticed all the women lined up and still kept walking. My next thought was, “Maybe he’s looking for his wife…or child and they’ve been in here a while.” But he didn’t call out any names or look around. He just stood off to the side and leaned up against the wall. At this point I’m like, “WTF? Ok there is definitely a very large, burly man in a Lakers jersey who just walked in here. Am I the only one seeing this?” I surveyed the room and saw roughly 12 women, children in tow, staring at him with the exact same look on their faces. Everyone was visibly uncomfortable. We were all trading looks and motioning our eyes over to him…like “What is he doing in here?” Yet every single one of us was silent. And this is the reason I wrote this blog.
If this had been 5 years ago, you bet your ass every woman in there would’ve been like, “Ummm what are you doing in here?”, but in 2017? The mood has shifted. We had been culturally bullied into silenced. Women were mid-changing their baby’s diapers on the changing tables and I could see them shifting to block his view. But they remained silent. I stayed silent. We all did. Every woman who exited a stall and immediately zeroed right in on him...said nothing. And why? B/c I and I’m sure all the others were scared of that “what if”. What if I say something and he says he “identifies as a woman” and then I come off as the intolerant asshole at the happiest place on earth? So we all stood there, shifting in our uncomfortableness…trading looks. I saw two women leave the line with their children. Still nothing was said. An older lady said to me out loud, “What is he doing in here?” I’m ashamed to admit I silently shrugged and mouthed, “I don’t know.” She immediately walked out, from a bathroom she had every right to use without fear.”
