Story of the Day



The only thing the following story and "The Bridges of Madison County" have in common is a bridge.

No sexy National Geographic photographers. No Italian stay at home wives. No tense and rainy red lights.

A couple of sex offenders are suing Miami-Dade County because they want to overturn a law that keeps them 2,500 feet from anyplace children are usually at (schools, playgrounds, etc.).

This restriction has forced an estimated 70 sex offenders to live under a bridge on the Julia Tuttle Causeway.

The bridge is one of the very few places they can live outside of the restricted areas.

I can't say I feel sorry for them. It's one thing to be homeless because you lost your job or you have a serious mental illness.

But to live in a tent because you raped someone? I'd let Clint as Dirty Harry Callahan take over from here, fo sho!
