Florida woman sues DMV for wrongfully labeling her a sex offender on her license


A 42-year-old Florida woman plans to sue the state Department of Motor Vehicles after she was mistakenly listed as a sex offender, causing her and her loved ones to be treated “the wrong way” in public, the Orlando Sentinel reported.

“They asked me to check my name and address, and that’s what I checked,” Tammy Lemasters said. “The sexual predator box is in the lower corner and she had her finger there. I just took it and put it in my wallet. No one checks for ‘sexual predator’ on your license.”
 
The high pregnancy and birthrates among white teenagers in states where the Christian right and Tea Party forces are strong reflect the inability of ideological doctrines stressing social conservatism to halt the gradual shift away from traditional family structures.

In fact, the map in the second chart shows that the Southern Baptist Convention, one of the most socially conservative denominations in America, is dominant in every one of the nine states with the highest white teenage pregnancy rates, with the sole exception of West Virginia.
