As California Attorney General, Kamala Harris discarded a widely popular state law prohibiting sex offenders from living close to children.
The Washington Free Beacon’s Yuichiro Kakutani reports:
In a confidential legal opinion, Harris ordered the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation in 2015 to stop enforcing residency restrictions that prohibited sex offenders from living within 2,000 feet of parks and schools. In doing so, Harris upended a key provision of Jessica’s Law, an anti-sex offender law that 70 percent of California voters approved in a 2006 statewide referendum.

Harris lifted the residency restriction for sex offenders after a 2015 state supreme court ruling that relaxed the restriction in San Diego due to the area’s high population density. While the ruling applied only to San Diego parolees, Harris stopped enforcing the residency restriction throughout the Golden State, ignoring claims by criminal justice advocates that the residency restrictions could still be enforced in the vast majority of counties. George Runner, one of the sponsors for the ballot initiative for Jessica’s Law, said that Harris’s decision jeopardized the safety of California kids.
“The head law enforcement officer in California was more concerned about protecting the rights of sex offenders than she was of parents and children,” Runner, a former state senator, said.
Harris’s leniency toward sex offenders stands in contrast to her reputation as a tough prosecutor who cracked down on criminals, especially sexual offenders. The vice presidential candidate touted on the campaign trail that she pushed to shut down popular website Backpage.com for facilitating sex trafficking—a claim that is receiving renewed scrutiny after revelations that the website actually served as an invaluable tool for law enforcement to catch predators. Harris also defended Jessica’s Law when she was running for election as California’s attorney general in 2010, smearing her Republican opponent as a “sexist coddler of child molesters” for making dismissive comments about the law.
Neither Harris’ office nor the Biden campaign has responded to requests for comment.

This is how these evil Democrats Politicians spend most of their time being child Pedophiles. They support it and they defend themselves doing it just like all of the Hollywood stars.
Is Kamala Harris a closet pedophile?
Should anyone be surprised by her action? This is a creature of the dark selling her not so private body part to the highest bidder. Misery loves company. And it makes sure that it has some.
This women is pure evil! She let sex offenders have our children in California. She stopped the law we voted for in 2006. In 2015 when she was The top cop AG in California she turned her head away from the law. They could be were our children were it was OK with her. Plus she took money from Clergy Lawyer’s so the church was not touched. She know but did nothing to keep our children safe! After all look how she got her start as Willy Brown’s side piece. He was married but he gave her her job!!!
Not only did she order the Dept. of Corrections from enforcing the residency law Californians voted for, she also ordered parole officers to stop enforcing the part of the law that prohibited convicted child molesters from participating in Halloween activities. Convicted sex offenders are legally prohibited from doing ANYTHING that would indicate children were welcome at the molester’s home including no decorating, no passing out candy and not even having a porch light on. When parole officers were enforcing the no-participation rule there was almost ALWAYS arrests for violating the terms of their parole. Now that the parole officers aren’t allowed to check on molesters during Halloween, they are emboldened to lure children to their homes which is the first step in finding their next victim. I dealt with child molesters for 27 years before retiring this summer and one thing I can guarantee you-they CANNOT be rehabilitated because they believe sexual predation of children is their right. The only thing that stops them is keeping them behind bars FOREVER or putting them six feet under.
time to wipe out all these democrats dump them in gitmo and get answers then get rid of the bodies
