Density of Registered Sex Offenders
 

Umm... I don't know, but it seems like there should be less people free to roam and more people behind bars when you can't put out an apb for a missing girl because:

WTF? Are people going to have to start moving to the South Pole to get clear of these pedos? :twitch:

I wonder how easy it is to get one of these brands. I know laws like these are more often than not applied liberally, because *fear*.

Also, "sex offender" != pedophile.

(For those not computationally inclined, != means "does not equal")

There is a registered sex offender who's last known residence was down my street. Some one found the information on line (guessing a neighbor) and found it neccessary to send the information to everyone on the street.

I'm sure the police would issue an announcement if they felt it necessary, but the girl hasn't even been missing for 24 hours yet. This is nothing more than Fox News highlighting a disturbing quote on a slow news day.

I'm sure the only reason such a big deal is being made of such a comment is because the girl was a hot topic earlier this year.

If it were any other 15 year old, the press wouldn't give two shits.

Dude FUCK BELORUS

You can be labeled a sex offender here in Arizona for pissing in an alley while drunk after a night of partying.

I think in pretty much every state indecent exposure is a sex offense, whether or not you're peeing in the bushes or in front of the petting zoo.

What? Since when?

An acquaintance of mine is now a registered sex offender because a 15-year-old girl got drunk and tried to convince him to sleep with her, and he wouldn't - so she told everyone he was trying to coerce her into it, and he had nobody that could testify cause nobody was there. Guilty until proven innocent I guess. So yeah, it's surprisingly easy to get slapped with this if you're not incredibly careful, and even then sometimes...

Especially drunk fifteen year olds? Is no one punishing the girl for drinking underage?

Mooning someone can get you busted for that, too. It actually is rather easy to get the scarlet letter. And then your life is pretty well over, since sex offender = child molestor or violent rapist in most people's minds.

Also, that quote has been excised from the linked story now. Odds are Fox News heard that juicy tidbit and didn't bother to verify their source (or hoped nobody would notice). They kinda tend to do that.

Oh no, she got a minor consumption ticket. Which is only like 50 bucks for anyone under 18 in this state, and 498 for anyone 18-20. But eh.

As for where they were hanging out, I think it was just a big get-together and she was related to the people throwing the party or something.

So really, he should've jsut fucked her then.

I know if some 15 year old asks me for sex I'm just going to have to go along with it for fear of the same thing happening to me. I won't enjoy it though.

(First is sexual battery, second is child molestation and sexual assault, third and fourth are sexual contact with a minor.)

:creepytouch:

FACT: 3/4 of sex offenders have bad mustaches.

I remember reading an article last month where an Arizona student was arrested for downloading 10 cp photos and was sentenced to prison AND had to register as an offender! For looking at pictures!
Don't know if he appealed or not..

Be careful what you download in the U.S.

Remember what curiosity did to the cat.

Looking at pictures that, as child pornography, are illegal to possess in the U.S.

What are you trying to argue here? Are you in favor of legalizing CP?

To be honest, I think the Sex Offender Registry is good and bad.

With everything made public it's possible for vigilantes to kill these people, and that has happened before.

I DO NOT advocate rapists or pedophiles, I actually hate them and wish they would die. But in the end, they're just like us. Human. You can argue semantics if you really want to. But in the end, we're all guilty of something.

Yeah, what could be so bad about murder?
