Is rape a “sex crime”?

[pennyfarmer]

As much as it pains me to agree with the ACLU I will do it now.

Who would open a day care center near a halfway house anyway? I guess I am questioning the intelligence of both the operators and the parents taking their children there.

[chesley]

You know loathe as I am to admit it, I agree with the ACLU on this one.

Sex offenders should be hanged. Failing that, they should be locked up for life. But if they are going to be allowed to run free, then they should be allowed to live wherever.

Just one of the little complications of life that should be easy to take care of but isn't, thanks to liberals and lawyers.

Flame away, if you must.

[IbJensen]

Evict the ACLU.

China will welcome them with open arms.

[RowdyFFC]

Why doesn’t the ACLU get busy and move the safe house away from the day care center. Problem solved.

Don't Evict Sex Offenders

I agree! Just kill them in place and let vultures take care of the cleanup.

You know all these sex offender laws that essentially make anyone guilty of a sex crime a 2nd class citizen have always left a bad taste in my mouth. If they are so dangerous and are such a threat to the public, then they should remain locked up. Period. However, if they aren't given a life sentence without parole, then they should serve their sentences, then have the same rights as everyone else. I don't know how it passes constitutional muster for the government to tell someone, “You were sentenced to 5 years in prison. You've payed your debt to society and are released. Oh, by the way, for the rest of your life, you can't live here, here or here. You must register with the state. You must do this, you must do that.”

I have strongly mixed feelings both ways on this one.

In many states, “sex crimes” includes public urination, which means that hundreds of men would be sex criminals at your average NASCAR race. “Sex crimes” includes getting your girlfriend pregnant in high school, or even dating a 15 year old when you’re an 18 year old senior.

Granted, I’d love to lock up the pervs, throw away the key... let’s just be sure who are the pervs, okay?

[Batman11]

To be fair to the sex offenders, I think they should be allowed to walk the ACLU attorney’s children to school!

Much as I despise sex offenders, my question is why should the safe house move when it was there first? Why didn’t the proprietors of the daycare due some due diligence about the presence of the safe house PRIOR to putting the daycare there?

[longtermmemmory]

how about we put them in aclu offices or in the neighborhoods of aclu staffers and lawyers AND DONORS.

This reminds me of someone who buys a home near the airport, knowing it’s there, then complains about the noise, and tries to get the airport shut down.

If the halfway house was there before the day care center, they shouldn’t have opened where they did.
