Are Virginians aware ,that the" ADAM WALSH ACT" violates the United States Constitution under section 1 article 9 and 10 when they made it retro -active . Please read below about what your government passed as a law .
Ex post facto
ex post facto adj. Formulated, enacted, or operating retroactively. [Med Lat., from what is done afterwards] Source: AHD
In U.S. Constitutional Law, the definition of what is ex post facto is more limited. The first definition of what exactly constitutes an ex post facto law is found in Calder v Bull (3 US 386 [1798]), in the opinion of Justice Chase:
1st. Every law that makes an action done before the passing of the law, and which was innocent when done, criminal; and punishes such action. 2d. Every law that aggravates a crime, or makes it greater than it was, when committed. " 3d. Every law that changes the punishment, and inflicts a greater punishment, than the law annexed to the crime, when committed." 4th. Every law that alters the legal rules of evidence, and receives less, or different, testimony, than the law required at the time of the commission of the offense, in order to convict the offender.
So fellow Virginian's and united states citizens , if the government can pass this in retro - active status what is stopping them from making anything they want retro- active to get votes ! Think about it ,the list does no good only harm it punishes the whole family not just the person who commited the crime but innocent children ,innocent spouses and innocent parrents . America was based on freedom and every single one of use is supposed to have that right as for protecting your children that is your job as a parrent ,the police only come after a crime has been commited . Is this america or nazi germany ? What has the world come to , putting teenagers in jail on a sex offender list becuase hey had consensual relations with another teenager .Our do goodiers are out of control when the Consitution can be violated in this manor to make a list and a law . So go ahead pay a soon to be retired state police officer to verify someones resident and work and cause them to loose the job and split up another family and honestly did it stop a crime ,I dont think so not from where im sitting . I would personally feel safer if there was counceling for these people and not humilation of being degraded and being outcast . This is not the american way . Poloticians play on this for votes ,trying to issue a false security to the public . The list is not the answer ,rehabilitation is .I would rather see my tax money go to something helpfull instead of creating another government agency .Wake up america because your kid could be on this one day or better yet what happens when the government breaks another section of the constitution and makes more crimes and punishments retro -active .
