The purpose of this website is to raise critical awareness about legal and social policy in the United States about sex offenders. We believe these policies should change, and that thoughtful people will agree when they know the facts. Please read our introductory article An Urgent Call to Support the Well Being of Children and the Rights of Us All by Paul Shannon to get a general background on the issue. Then read our official statement, Reform Sex Offender Laws Now!, which has been signed by academics and activists. We are seeking your signature and support for our message, too. If you are convinced, we know you will want to learn more and speak to your friends and associates about this important subject. We have collected written materials which will be helpful for you to learn more, and inform others. Please begin by clicking on the following menu items.
We aim to provide articles, links to news stories, as well as commentary on the fast-moving area of sex offender policy on our blog. You can make a contribution, too. We are especially interested in reports or analysis of lobbying efforts, reforms, and other developments in your local area, though you may send any media article of interest. We will also accept personal commentary explaining why developing a critical awareness about sex offender policy is important to you. Such personal stories can help others think differently. With diverse content we hope ReformSexOffenderLaws.Org will become an important information resource. Please send us all your comments and suggestions about this site and the project.

A Message From RSOL:
A BRAVE REGISTERED PERSON IN WISCONSIN TAKES PROTESTS TO THE STREETS
Randall Saunders is indeed a brave and honest man - he has taken his protest against being classified a ´sex offender,´ when he says he is not, to the streets, as chronicled in 4 videos posted on Youtube

While we don´t agree with everything he says - RSOL favors total abolition of a public registry, while Saunders does not - we applaud his courage and urge other RSOL participants to emulate him.
Randall is part of the excellent Wisconsin RSOL, headed by Francie Baldino, who held a meeting in Detroit this month, which Marshall Burns attended. More than 30 RSOLers participated in this meeting! We also congratulate Marshall for continuing this long odyssey across America, and we look forward to his further documentation. The first part of his trip is already on the rsol-associated site, solreserch.org. Hoorah for Randall, for Francie and for Marshall!
(This will also be posted as Blog 263 on the www.reformsexoffenderlaws.org blog page.) You can email Randall at randalljays@yahoo.com, Francie at reformsolaw_mi@att.net, and Marshall at mburns@solresearch.org |
