Why on earth would you want to be in the same neighborhood with a preditor. Warning or no warning.

OK FOLKS
A convicted serial murderer is going to be living in your neighborhood so watch out. He has been paroled and we are sending him your way. You should be ok with this since you have been warned.

Following your logic, we should then lock away for life alcoholics. Because of their disease, their actions under the influence have killed and hurt people. Since their condition is not curable ( AA notwithstanding-since it does not cure their condition, it just helps them deal with it ), they continue to present a danger to the general public.

I do not agree with this line of logic.

I also note in your comments in your response the implication that I somehow support paedophilia. I do not. It is, however, a disease that exists and needs to be dealt with--and not necessarily by locking away all paedophiles for life. I believe that a number of them can at least function in society, and that they need to be removed from the situations, as I have said before, that would encourage their behavior. There are the cases in which recidivism would appear to be great, and these cases need to be handled perhaps in the way you suggest.

Unless, of course, the black and white proposition would be to liquidate all that show the mental disease. This could also be carried on to the mentally retarded, those with birth defects, the criminally insane, the Slavs, the Jews, and others that obviously create a danger to a well ordered and functioning society. While I am being sarcastic here, this is the ultimate end to the road upon which your logic travels.
