I don't feel safer just knowing that my neighbor could be a registered sex offender. I have a 2 year old daughter and my views on registered sex offenders are that they should not be allowed to live anywhere near children. I can't believe that the government actually will let sick individuals such as these out. I don't believe they belong in the community at all. They should be put in a psychiatric facilitiy or kept in jail. Sex offenders don't change. It is a sickness that stays with them for life. If you let one out, it is almost definite that they will commit the crime again. As I have proof of that seeing as though "High Risk" sex offenders are considered to be high risk by what they have done and how many times they have been tried for each individual act.

id have to agree with you on a few comments, most sex offenders should be kept locked away with the key put down a toilet, actually ive said worse thoughts about them, what we really should do is hang them, to me theres NO worse crime then child molestation..and I do not belive someone who is that sick in the first place could ever change. so I agree with you there. My 2nd part is to ad my boyfriend of 4 1/2 years has to register as a sex offender, not because he molested a little child, but when he was 21 he had sex with a girl who was turning 16 in a month...depending on your opinion that may be sick to you to, to me its not, might be wrong because its against the law but I dont belive he should be added on that list of real sickos who hunt down and molest little children, whats your take on this?? Id really like to know your opinion. Most people dont realise not every offender is a child molester...most YES but my bf is not a child molester, hes a wounderfull person, hes 32 years old now, hes a great father and works full time, and has totally changed. When he was 21 he was hanging out with younger people, and a bad crowd, just took him a while to grow up, now he is paying for the rest of his life because of some stupid mistakes he made!

Sure, and the guy you find living down the street who is listed as a sex offender is the only one around you. Now that you know about him you are safe. What is your worry.

Fact is that if your child will ever be molested that molester is already in your life. He isn't the guy down the street, he's daddy, brother, uncle or some other relative - either by blood or social group - who is already so attached that you will be jaded to his actions. Registries contain information starting at a very finite time. Do you really believe that sex offenders did not exist before Megan's Law? Pull your head out of the sand. If the chest thumping psychologists are correct and 1 in 4 girls as well as 1 in 7 boys are sexually assaulted before the age of 18 then you do the math. Just how many offenders are out there? And I will even allow for the offender who may have 1,000 victims (and how many are there?).

You want to hide behind feel good legislation that has only worked to create greater fear. I would suggest to you that you walk down to the man's home and tell him you know about him. Don't be mean to him, he is going to be your neighbor. If he has already done these things before is he the man you want pissed at you? But you can certainly let him know you know he is there.

Read my profile, I have informed my neighbors. But I am still here and will continue to be a property owner and tax payer. It's not an "in-your-face" thing. My only debt is to my victim. We live in one of the freest societies on the planet, and with that freedom there will always be risks. And it certainly makes one feel so righteous to pontificate with statements such as "hang em" and "put a bullet through their head" but frankly most of my cell mates were ex-state troopers, police officers, teachers and ministers. But by and large most of their victims were in their own families, not a neighbor. Try and not do your sociological tabulation by reading the local headlines. They probably were written to sell papers more so than actually provide information. Salacious headlines = profits.
