Registered Sex Offender does not equal Child Molester in Georgia folks. If you stop on the side of the road and run into the woods to pee, you can be charged, tried, and convicted of indecent exposure...which requires you to register as a sex offender after paying your nominal fine. Oral sex is still illegal in Georgia. Getting that special favor from your spouse and forget to close the curtains? Uh, oh! You can be charged, tried, and convicted, etc, etc.

Wow! And some posters on this thread like Tulane and Paleo Conservative are calling for life imprisonmant, nay execution, for these people.

I'm sure glad you made this point. The emotion of this issue makes me wonder if even here the issue has turned people into a hanging mob.
