If the number of offenses do not decline, what good are the registries?

Well, the enforcement of the registry and verifying offender compliance with related laws gives some otherwise worthless people a sense of self-worth.
So in that respect it serves a purpose.
As for protecting the kids, well the numbers speak for themselves. According to RAINN there were 90,000 victims of rape, sexual assault or attempts thereof in 2003-04 alone. 246 per DAY.
Hardly seems to be working.
But hey, as long as the registrant isn't working at Chik-Fil-A and lives at least 87 miles from the nearest park it's all good.

See an abbreviation or acronym, but don't know what it stands for? Consult the Glossary.
