PING

I try to be fair, and frankly after what I discovered I might do the same thing, actually I should do it because we have 41 offender's in 4 mile area around the 1 school and 2 parks. A couple on the list, could spit on the grounds of the school. Best I can do to make sure the schools are aware but perhaps the idea of removing them like this community would be a good thing.

But if not here than where? I mean I would rather a sex offender who is found guilty serve a life sentence but that is yet the consequence of this act.

I say move them next to our polititians and judges. I bet then the sentencing laws would change pdq.

We can set up subsidized colonies for them in derelict urban industrial tracts. Give them government night jobs cleaning sewers and subways. Send a bus to pick them up & let them sleep in the day.

I did a search with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and came up with 3 sex offenders 0.00 miles from my address. I'm surrounded by them and there is nothing I can do. It sure puts a different atmosphere on the ol' hacienda these days when the grandkids come to visit.

We've only been in the new house 20 months, we are already thinking of looking for a new area. I know that they can move into a neighborhood, any neighborhood, but this is a little too close for our liking.

So the offender leaves the neighborhood where their are children currently living. He buys another house, on the outskirts of town, away from the school.

Guess what? A family of four moves in across the street from the offender... should the offender be forced to move again?

The ACLU is going to have a fuss if parents want to force offenders from the neighborhoods.

We should pressure our legislators into giving them all life sentences or quarantining them somewhere. It's absurd to keep a fox in the hen house.

Here's my problem with this.
Until our government labels the corrupt prosecutors, attorney, law enforcement, and judges that Lord over our justice system, I look at every person's guilt or innocense with a jaded eye.
I do not trust them, nor do I believe them.
For every person who committed a heinous crime (and is released), there are dozens more who are not guilty but are being punished.
If one is a sex offender and a threat to the community, FORCE THE ISSUE WITH THE LEGAL SYSTEM!
If they are not a threat but are labeled a sex offender because they were found guilty of a date rape, THIS IS NOT IN THE SAME CONTEXT - LET THEM OUT.
The Kobe Bryant changed my whole thought process regarding sex offenders. If not for the cash and the fame, he would rot for something the Colorado legal system was pushing through.
JMHO.
