Nancy Mace the SC disgrace wants a nationwide ban on Registered Persons in shelters

Which one's the dog?
And to think, some folks think the incoming administration is going to benefit us in some way. I tried to warn folks about voting for Trump. This is JUST THE BEGINNING!

Nancy Mace is one of the kookiest congresspeople. In the past year, she was hit with an ethics complaint, introduced an anti-trans bathroom bill on US Capitol grounds, and made a dubious claim of being "assasulted" by a trans-activist. Her arm may be in a sling but her brain is himly up her ass. 

And notice that Rep. Lauren Boebert, who is married to a Registered Person, is a co-sponsor of the bill. This next administration is going to be a nightmare.

CONGRESSWOMAN NANCY MACE INTRODUCES THE "SAFE SHELTERS ACT OF 2024" TO PROTECT WOMEN AND CHILDREN IN EMERGENCY SHELTERS

December 12, 2024

Press Release

(WASHINGTON, D.C., December 12th, 2024) - Rep. Nancy Mace, a survivor and advocate for women, is pushing the Safe Shelters Act to bar registered sex offenders from emergency shelters shared with women and children during disasters.

This bill has been cosponsored by Reps. Anna Paulina Luna, Van Drew, Weber and Boebert.

The bill builds upon policies in Florida counties like Flagler and Marion which require sex offenders to evacuate to separate facilities or dedicated shelters. Mace's bill:

  • Prohibits sex offenders from entering undesignated emergency shelters
  • Requires immediate notification to shelter operators of sex offender registration status
  • Allows FEMA to designate specific shelters for registered sex offenders
  • Establishes federal penalties for non-compliance, including potential fines and imprisonment

"In times of crisis, shelters must be sanctuaries, not hunting grounds for predators," said Rep. Nancy Mace. "Women and girls are 3.5 times more likely to experience sexual violence in chaotic, post-disaster environments. Women and children deserve safety, protection, and peace of mind. Our bill will make sure disaster shelters remain a place of refuge for those in their most vulnerable state.“

"Women and children should never face the risk of being exposed to sex offenders in emergency shelters. While providing shelter during emergencies is essential, these places should be free from other dangers," said Rep. Luna. "FEMA must establish emergency shelters that restrict access to sexual predators. I am proud to co-sponsor this critical legislation protecting vulnerable disaster victims from any potential further harm. Our emergency shelters should be safe, secure, and free from harm for all who seek refuge."

ICYMI: Rep. Nancy Mace Introduces Bill to Block Sex Offenders From Entering Emergency Shelters, New York Post

December 12, 2024, Ryan King, The New York Post

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) unveiled legislation Thursday aimed at protecting women and children from registered sex offenders in emergency shelters during natural disasters.

Mace’s legislation, the Safe Shelters Act, is modeled after the policy in Florida, where the government designates specific buildings or shelters for sex offenders to keep everyone else safe.

“Except for the purpose of seeking information on designated shelters, a covered sex offender may not enter or use the services of an undesignated shelter,” the bill stipulates.

Under the Safe Shelters Act, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) administrator would be tasked with determining suitable emergency spaces for registered sex offenders.

FEMA can look to federal buildings or prisons deemed suitable by the General Services Administration for sex offender spaces, according to the bill. The congresswoman had teased the bill earlier this week.

“Why stop there? All sex offenders should be banned from all shelters also. I’ve got a bill for this,” she wrote on X in response to a post about keeping men out of women’s shelters.

Her legislation specifically applies to individuals who are in the national sex offender registry. Individuals who knowingly violate the policy could face fines and up to five years behind bars. Florida has had a similar policy in effect for almost two decades, which it pursued to handle hurricane season. Mace’s legislation pitch also modeled itself after ordinances in Florida that implement that policy.

The Palmetto State Republican, who has come forward as a rape survivor, previously introduced legislation targeting sex offenders. Back in April, for instance, she furnished an amendment to border legislation to automatically deport sex offenders. On Tuesday, the congresswoman announced that she was “physically accosted” in the Capitol complex “over my fight to protect women” and later posted a picture on social media of her donning a sling. Her office explained that she was in pain Wednesday and noted that it was limited in the details it could share due to the ongoing investigation.

The suspect, James McIntyre, 33, from Illinois, was later detained by Capitol Police in the Rayburn House Office Building over the incident. McIntyre pleaded not guilty on Wednesday to a charge for assaulting a government official. A police report later revealed Mace’s version of events, in which she alleged that the suspect “began to aggressively and in an exaggerated manner shake her arm up and down.”

“The victim stated that she attempted to pull her hand away from the subject but was held in place by the subject,” the report added.

The South Carolina Republican has introduced legislation aimed at sex offenders in the past.

Last month, Mace introduced legislation requiring transgenders to utilize the bathroom in federal buildings that correspond with their biological sex at birth.

She had also backed a similar measure that was limited to the Capitol Complex, which preempted Rep.-elect Sarah McBride (D-Del.) getting sworn into Congress next month.

McBride is the first openly transgender lawmaker elected to the House of Representatives.

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) later announced a policy restricting transgender women from utilizing bathrooms intended for biological women.

Mace later had a call with President-elect Donald Trump over the alleged altercation in the Capitol complex on Tuesday.

“Thank you, Mr. President, for checking in on me and for standing up for women. We cannot wait to see you back in the White House,” she wrote on X.

Three for one special on USA Today yellow journalists, just in time for the holidays

What if you took the three ghosts from A Christmas Carol, turned them evil, then sent them to work for legacy media? These three stooges -- Will BRAINLESS, DRIBBLE Mayes-Osterman, and Anthony NO-BRAIN-o. I would like to say they should get lumps of coal for Xmas, but they'd actually enjoy a lump of coal for Xmas since they are the type to enjoy watching the world burn.

Heartwarming story of man missing 25 years is darker. He's a registered (person).

After a fruitless 25-year search, a California woman found her long-lost brother in a USA TODAY story. But the case may not be the heartwarming reunion it first appeared.

When Marcella Nasseri, a native of northern California, saw a May USA TODAY story asking for readers' help to identify a nonverbal man at a Los Angeles County hospital, she was shocked. Local law enforcement confirmed that the man was her brother, ***, who vanished in 1999.

But new details uncovered by USA TODAY reveal that *** is a (RP), a captain with the Lassen County Sheriff's Department confirmed Wednesday. Manizak spent three years in a county prison for the offense, Capt. Mike Carney said at his office in Susanville, California.

Carney said he was originally told *** had been fingerprinted but then learned that never happened and that he was identified using photographs and his sister's positive identification.

The Los Angeles Police Department either failed or neglected to fingerprint *** , which would have helped to identify him, Carney said. But after *** sister notified his department that the man in Los Angeles was her brother, deputies ran his name through the system and found the 1993 (RP) listing.

Anthony Robledo
"I guess he wasn't cooperative when they tried to fingerprint him," Carney said. "We were told that he was unable to walk and was unable to talk, so I don't know what happened to him."

(RP) who 'floated around'

The circumstances surrounding *** disappearance are still murky. Nasseri says he was last in contact with the family in August 1999...

Carney said Manizak was prosecuted in nearby Plumas County, where he served prison time. He then registered as a sex offender in Lassen County, but within a couple of years, he had left town. He failed to register with whatever jurisdiction he moved to, which is a violation of California law, Carney explained.

"He went to Oregon and after that, according to his family, he was just kind of a free soul and he just floated around," Carney said.

Missing person bulletins show *** was last seen in July 1999 when he was 28 years old.

When he disappeared, *** was traveling across the country in his van. His last contact with his family was a phone call to his mother in August 1999, Nasseri said.

Because of his diabetes, *** could have slipped into a "diabetic coma" if he did not take regular insulin, according to the Doe Network. He qualifies for disability checks but did not pick them up or use his medical card while he was missing.

An avid camper, *** picked up hitchhikers, according to the Network, a nonprofit that works with law enforcement to try to identify missing persons. He had camping supplies with him when he disappeared.

Fundraiser raises more than $11,000

On a GoFundMe page posted after her brother was located, Nasseri wrote that he had vanished "with no trace." Authorities never located his vehicle, she wrote.

The GoFundMe page created by Nasseri was still online as of Wednesday at 4 p.m. local time. It received more than $11,500 in donations after detailing her goal of transferring Manizak from Los Angeles County to a facility in Lassen County. The post's description also said she wanted to send him a device so he can listen to music.

Interviewed by USA TODAY Wednesday, Nasseri said she has always been her brother's "protector." What **** did in the 1990s was "***," she said.

"But at the end of the day, he's still my brother, and I'm not turning my back on my flesh and blood," Nasseri said. "I love him and I've been looking for 25 years – all the other stuff is outside noise, he's my brother and I love him."

The .... offense caused "huge heartache" in her family, Nasseri said, which was compounded by Manizak's disappearance.

Nasseri said she plans to visit her brother as soon as she can leave her home, where she said she has the responsibility of looking after animals.

"When I'm released from that, I'm flying right down there to meet him and I can't wait," she said.

Nasseri said she is also working to transfer Manizak to a different medical facility closer to her home around 600 miles from the hospital where he is a patient.

She wrote on the fundraising page that she hoped to buy him used clothing, paper and pencils because he loved to draw, and a listening device with his favorite songs to help his memories resurface but didn't have enough money.

Will Carless in particular is the worst of the three. He boasted he had a "scoop incoming" with a meme of Shaq making a naughty face just before posting this hit piece:

I challenged him on this. At first he went on the attack but quickly tapped out on me. 


He did it on Twitter as well:
