The following article reflects the facist, nazi policies that were made under Jebadiah dumbass:
By John Zarrella and Patrick Oppmann
MIAMI, Florida (CNN) -- The sparkling blue waters off Miami's Julia Tuttle Causeway look as if they were taken from a postcard. But the causeway's only inhabitants see little paradise in their surroundings.
Five men -- all registered sex offenders convicted of abusing children -- live along the causeway because there is a housing shortage for Miami's least welcome residents.
"I got nowhere I can go!" says sex offender Rene Matamoros, who lives with his dog on the shore where Biscayne Bay meets the causeway.
The Florida Department of Corrections says there are fewer and fewer places in Miami-Dade County where sex offenders can live because the county has some of the strongest restrictions against this kind of criminal in the country.
Florida's solution: house the convicted felons under a bridge that forms one part of the causeway.
The Julia Tuttle Causeway, which links Miami to Miami Beach, offers no running water, no electricity and little protection from nasty weather. It's not an ideal solution, Department of Corrections Officials told CNN, but at least the state knows where the sex offenders are.
Nearly every day a state probation officer makes a predawn visit to the causeway. Those visits are part of the terms of the offenders' probation which mandates that they occupy a residence from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
But what if a sex offender can't find a place to live?
That is increasingly the case, say state officials, after several Florida cities enacted laws that prohibit convicted sexual offenders from living within 2,500 feet of schools, parks and other places where children might gather. (Watch one sex offender describe how he was forced to give up an apartment
)
Bruce Grant of the Florida Department of Corrections said the laws have not only kept sex offenders away from children but forced several to live on the street.
"Because of those restrictions, because there are many places that children congregate, because of 2,500 feet, that's almost half a mile, that's a pretty long way when you are talking about an urban area like Miami, so it isn't surprising that we say we are trying but we don't have a place for these people to live in," Grant said.
For several of the offenders, the causeway is their second experience at homelessness. Some of them lived for months in a lot near downtown Miami until officials learned that the lot bordered a center for sexually abused children.
Trudy Novicki, executive director of Kristi House, said the offender's presence put the center's children at risk. "It was very troublesome to learn that across the street there are people who are sex offenders that could be a danger to our children," she said.

Bush and his nazi friends have screwed that state of Flordia so bad that some people are being forced to live under bridges.
The state of Florida is so jacked up that these people are not even allowed to have apartments. This is above and beyond dispicable ... even if the person in question is a sex offender.
Jeb Bush needs to be tossed in front of a moving bus for this disgrace.
Scum or not these people are human beings and they should be given basic shelter. The CITY OF MIAMI IS HOUSING THESE PEOPLE UNDER A ****ING BRIDGE!!!!
This is ABSOLUTE, UNFORGIVABLE, ABUSE on the part of Florida and Jeb Bush.
Don't get me wrong, I don't condone what these people did; however, I ABSOLUTELY OBJECT to people being forced to live under a bridge.
The state of Florirda has proven that they are a bunch of useless shitbags who deserve to be removed from the USA.
Florida is now the most disgraceful state in the union.
