Let's also not forget that "public urination" is also a sex offense in some places. So if you were homeless and got caught pissing in an alley California will treat you like a pedophile forever.

What's always bothered me is that giving out sex offenses for minor stupid stuff like public urination gives actual bonafide sex offenders an "out" if word gets out that they are sex offenders. I knew two guys in college who were registered sex offenders and would tell people that, but would say that they were just caught peeing in an alley or something. I can't recall what their actual offenses were, but they were both much worse than that. Not saying it's right to force people to register or not, but the lie always bothered me.
