Yes. If there’s 850,000 on the sex offender registry, a 1% “false positive” rate is almost certainly undercounting it, especially with the way our criminal justice system works. Do the vast majority 95%+ belong there, yes I believe that. But even a 1% rate leads to thousands of people being on the list unnecessarily.
First of all, dont quote me and rewrite my words. I never said “not actually guilty.” If you want to argue with yourself you dont need to reply to me to do that.
You claim there are THOUSANDS of not-really-sex offenders that are registered sex offenders. Why you are so interested in propagating that myth, I can only guess, but you have not actually provided a single source that actually says that.

And your “1% of people on the sex offender register are not actually guilty” number comes from…?

And where does your 99%+ conviction accuracy rate come from?
Strange, I thought we were talking about registered sex offenders. Did you forget or just realize that you pulled that number directly from your ass?
If you want to make rules for this discussion, how about we start with you agreeing to stop making shit up?
Yes, registered sex offenders are a subset of the people convicted of crimes. What’s strange about that?
And what did I make up? I gave you sources for everything I claimed to you. Do you have anything to back up your claims here?
