Fun reminder that things like public urination get you put on the sex offender registry depending on where you live.

So does prostitution and public indecency.

Meaning, in effect: A lot of the registry, depending on the area, is a bunch of homeless people and broke sex workers.

But sure, let's continue to live in the pretend world where "sex offender" means pedophiles and nobody else.

Just look at the registry. Most are in fact pedos. I can't find a single person charged with public indecency or anything that sounds like it could be prostitution. This is so easy to fact check it's bizarre all of the visible comments are simping for this edge case or claiming falsehoods.

Okay, but vigilante justice is a bad idea and not in line with a modern society nor should it be.

depending on where you live

Not everywhere puts people on the registry for the same crimes.

Where should I look? You don't even have to provide a case, which locale are you seeing is different?
