Despite recent events in Florida, I think the current handling of sex offenders goes far enough.  Everywhere that I have lived (not sure if it's everywhere in the U.S.) I can search my local area and find sex offenders and descriptions of what they have been convicted of. 
If I had a child, you can be certain I would pay much closer attention to such information than I do now.  Currently, I only search about once a year or so, just out of curiousity--to see if anyone I know comes up.

Or when he or she is in violation of his or her parole or terms of release by being in a "hot zone" such as a school, bar, liquor store, or anywhere else deemed off-limits.



Loved the knee jerk reaction, though.

...and so that will eliminate the chance of that person molesting another child? -- because we all know kids hang out in bars and liquor stores.

Get some familiarity with the subject matter, Quickdraw McNokX. If a person is on parole, they are often prohibited from consuming alcohol or drugs. It's not a long shot to put similar limitations from "rehabilitated" individuals.

I noticed you didn't have a smarmy retaliation for my reference to "hot zones."

florida is looking into equipping every sex offender with a GPS tracking device..

Who would monitor their locations?

how will this stop them from touching another child?..

It won't! This GPS stuff is called "feel good" legislation...it does nothing to affect the problem but it makes legislators feel good!

i think they need to castrate, or kill, the pervert..

For starters... this is just the introductory punishment; for the main course put them in the general population at a Supermax lockup!

i no more children and families will have to suffer through the pain it causes.

We pray for a rapid solution to this problem... it would help if judges that let out  convicted sexual predators that commit other sex crimes are themselves sentenced. Judges are indeed part of the problem.

How many children have to die before we get serious about child predators?

Nevermind, I'm asking a group who consider children a usless parasite collection of cells until they are old enough to vote democrat.

What about in some regions where an 18 yearold has sex with his GF and is then considered a sex offender?

I have no wish to deffend sex offenders, but if their time has been completed, the punishment is over. Or else like mentioned, castrate the repeats.

i didn't retaliate to your reference on "hot zones" because, again - how will this stop them from molesting a child?

and a person on parole might be in trouble for stealing a pack of cigarettes from the store.  not such a big deal if they're a repeat offender at cigarette-pack-taking - but a repeat offender at child molesting?  you're talking about an event that someone carries for the rest of their lives and can ruin families.

I am not going to hold your hand through this. If you're going to purposely be obtuse (no offense to the one behind the name) that's fine, but I'm not going to spoon feed what should be self-evident to you.

If you go out to a club and meet someone who's really young but says she's 19 and even has ID that says so, but she's really 15 and you take her home and have sex with her, you are now classified as a sex offender*.

Congratulations.

The real problem isn't that these people exist or that parents don't know about them. It's that they're not being treated for their behavior because people don't want to pay tax dollars to treat them. No, we want to pay no taxes except the $1 it costs to put a bullet in their heads, because they're a threat to society and not a human being.

*This did not happen to me.

*sigh*

it seems like you're the only one who thinks a GPS device prevents them from molesting.  keep preaching on about your hot spots and nightclubs, then.

and there's a huge difference between being lied to by a teenager and raping and killing an 8 year old.

Yeah, but you're still on the sex offenders list (depending on age of consent in your state). And when you're on that list, that's all most people know about.

If there was a way to guarantee a sex offender won't reoffend, I'd support it. I don't think there is any such guarantee, though.

I don't know about the US, but here in Canada they can keep sex offenders in the clink if they think they're still a threat.

By the way, there are female sex offenders, notably Karla Homolka:



She's getting out soon, the crown (district) attorney having made the most abysmally retarded plea deal with her. They portrayed her as a poor helpless victim of her rapist serial killer husband, but it's now very clear that she's as guilty has he is -- she having sexually abused the girls they abducted; and while she didn't actually kill them, she might have freed them at any time but didn't.

Shrinks say she's still a threat, but because of the plea deal she'll be free and clear.
