The Folly of Creating Faux Parks To Drive Out Paroled Sex Offenders Out of Town

In Louisiana if one has a "truck stop" that meets certain requirements one can have whole rooms of video poker machines. When video poker legislation was passed lots of people wanted to get into the truck stop business. There were regulations of course one being that a truck stop with video poker could not be in so many feet of a Church.

One person wanted to apply for a video poker license and the Louisiana State Police are the ones that handle that. However there was a problem. A Church came into existence !!  Now the State police started noticing this Church , which they called the Our Lady of Aces I think , was strange. No one every showed up at it. If memory serves me right it might have been a competing truck stop owner that  put this church up !! Anyway this was clearly absurd . This abused the intent of the law  and  thus the State Police gave the license.

A similar result needs to happen I think as to new ways cities make sure a registered sex offender is just driven out of your city. See Josh Blackburn post Construction of “Tiny Parks” Zones Sex-Offenders Further Into Non-Existence

As Josh Blackburn points out besides the legal and ethical problems we see here all this make it much more likely a sex offender will offend .
