The Great Perv Migration of '06

Wilmington, CA

There's this thing called the '290 Database'. The name refers to California Penal Code Section 290, which covers registration of sex offenders in the state. This database is used to track the addresses of registered sex offenders.

Back in June a sweep of the 290 database showed 34 sex offenders living at three hotels less than a mile from Banning New Elementary School in Wilmington. Registered offenders cannot live within one quarter mile of a school, and high risk offenders one half mile .

The school opened in September, the sweep happened in June. They're just getting around to moving them now.

Some day we'll look on this as old geezers, rocking back and forth in our pneumatically controlled wheelchairs, wheezing with our surgically implanted iron lungs and remember the Great Perv Migration of 06, where they ran them through the streets like the bulls of Pamplona. Their blood running red from the barbs stuck through by laughing children, mothers with fire in their eyes and by those men and women thinking, "There but for the grace of God and the exceptions regarding sodomy and oral copulation between consenting adults pursuant to California Penal Code Section 290, Paragraph 2, Sub-Paragraph D, Clause IV, go I".

The start of a Grand Tradition in this, Our City of the Angels.
