Gov. Rick Snyder signs law that takes teen lovers off Michigan sex offender registry


So-called teenage “Romeos” convicted of having consensual sex with their girlfriends would no longer be listed on the state’s large sex offender registry under legislation signed into law this morning by Gov. Rick Snyder.

1. But whats the angle because Republicans never do anything without an angle

Is he trying to get young voters?

2. I wondered about that too...

...maybe his son has a younger girlfriend.

3. Hate to say it.

But my very first thought was, "which relative is he getting off the list?"

I too think it's a good idea though.

7. Obviously, he's going after the teenage vote.

...wait...

4. Of course the whole idea of sex offender registries is bogus

Once they've done the time, there shouldn't be any additional punishments. Still, whittling away at it is good.

5. He probably had sex with a teenager recently

And thought this law would keep his own name off the sex offender registry if he ever gets caught

:dunce:

6. I clicked hoping to see that what he did was...

...resign or get impeached or go to prison or renounce his ideology and become one of us, but I have to admit that this news is better than I expected from an R.
