I'm against the law. I don't feel laws should be used to go into the past. Unless its to correct a law by compensating or countering an unlawful law.
The main thing bringing me here wasa look at the sex offender registry and seeing several people I knew of and the dates of their offenses. All of them where before that January 1, 1995 National Registry Act or whatever.
One of the men I saw had commited an act predating the rise of Castro! He had done nothing since though.
This is also in response to an incident about 3 years ago when there was a massive local uproar involving I believe an old folk's home where quite a few died in a blaze. Homicide chargeswere wanted but the sprinker set up or lack of predated the sprinkler law. I believe the issue was known but the man decided to not act on updates due to retroactivity protecting him from a legal obligation.
