Proposed CA bill creates new "Offender" re

AMuse writes: "The New York Times reports today on a Proposed New Law which would create a web-searchable database of persons convicted of domestic violence. Fiona Ma, the author, claims: "If you're online, Googling and looking for information on someone you met in a bar or on MySpace, this would provide a tool for people to go and look to see if someone who is suspicious and a little creepy has a history of violence". Is this evidence that the opponents of "Megan's Law" (Sex offender registry) laws are correct, and that sooner or later all of ones' run-ins with the law will be searchable by the public?"
