It's a pretty silly law, which makes it perfect for California. The City and County of San Francisco is so small (four miles across) that I doubt there is any part of it where people subject to this law can reside, but at the same time they'd violate their probation if they left the City. So merely breathing violates their probation.

The legislature here would repeal the law of gravity if you paid them to do it. I doubt this law will survive a federal constitutional challenge.

Yep. I voted against it for some of those same reasons. Unfortunately, even on FR, people started in with the mantra of "you must support sex offenders" when I said I opposed it.
