Florida Evicts Bridge-Dwelling Sex Offenders

February 14, 2008 | ISSUE 44•07

The state of Florida is dissuading sex offenders from continuing to live under a bridge, despite their claims that existing ordinances prevent them from living elsewhere. What do you think?

I hope all this talk of sex offenders doesn't tarnish the squeaky-clean image of the common bridge-dweller.

I know that sometimes it's difficult to have sympathy for sex offenders, but just pretend for a minute that one of them was your father.

This is an outrage. My children drive over that bridge!"
