RM125: Preservation of Our Constitutionally Promised Liberties

Read Transcript of RM125: Preservation of Our Constitutionally Promised Liberties

Welcome to Episode 125 of Registry Matters. It was significant to me in this episode that one of the Supreme Court Justices made an amazingly impactful statement. It was about the promise of our constitutionally promised liberties. We all expect to have certain unalienable rights guaranteed by the constitution. When you finish the terms of your parole and/or probation, you should have ALL of your rights restored. There should be no disabilities and restraints placed upon you. This means no markings on your drivers license, no living or work or presence restrictions. That’s what the passage meant to me. Our current climate allows for this civil regulatory scheme to reach its tentacles deep into controlling your life. And simply, it shouldn’t. You paid your debt to society.
