Child molesters cannot be cured. No method of tracking them will ever make them safe for society.

There is only one cure for such sickos. A short rope and a long drop.

Save the tracking devices for wildlife research.

The wicked fear nothing today because the lawyer and the judge and the social worker and the journalist will just blame his victim and let him off the hook. Time for organizing the Public Death Penalty party. Desperate times call for harsh measures to restore order. A government that can’t command the fear of its citizens is worthless… Prisons don’t work. Instead divide punishments into 3 types – death (for all felonies), public whipping to within an inch of the offenders life(for certain misdomeaners) and monetary fines (for petty stuff). It won’t take that many public executions to get the word out that people must behave. Then we will be able to walk the streets again. By the way, it begins with the National Guard occupying the ghettos around this country and giving everyone there 3 days to turn in their guns. Then it’s shoot to kill on sight to anyone with a weapon. That should clean the place up in a reasonable amount of time.

And while we’re at it – no more lawyers in courts. Judges must decide the case, get to the bottom of it, and physically, with their own hands, carry out the sentence.

Actually, life in prison for any child rape with no parole on the first offense.

Dell,

Sometimes a person is given a sentence of jail time and parole. This parole can be for a fixed period or life. It is part of the sentence, not an adjunct and constitutes monitoring of the individual after he is released which is not neccessarily a fully paid debt to society.

Also, inform the general population of the extent of their crime. In prison, the predator would become someone’s “girl friend”.

In prison, from what I hear, rapist and especially child molestors are an aboration (sp) that the prisoners “handle” on their own. They do not take that crime lightly.

Next, let it be known that their information will be released to the general population. I think that 10 to 20 years of being beaten and raped everyday would serve as a deterrent to others.

And particularly for conservatives who tend to be more skeptical of the government intervening in individuals live’s I find it ironic that so many would support the lifelong monitoring of an individual after he has committed a crime, done his time and supposedly paid his debt to society.

Let me state my issues with the proposed life long penalties as mentioned above.

1st – How are we defining ’sex offender’ because there is a marked difference in degrees of sex offense.

For example, the Boy Scout leader who was found guilty of child porn position, a non-violent, or as Bill Mauer puts it ‘thought crime’ where in effect he wasn’t responsible for the creation of it, distribution of it, but primarily was only an end user.

As terrible as that may be, he committed no violent or physically abusive intent, however he may be forced to register for life and wear a bracelet for ever even after he is convicted and serves his time.

Another example is this, a 19 year old who has consensual sex with a 14 year old. In certain states this is sex offense registry deal. Is this individuals the same as say a Priest who has habitually preyed on 5 to 9 year old boys?

2nd – Statistical Evidence, I hear much anecdotal evidence, about how people who do X will always do X again, but as of yet I have seen no true statistical data indicating that sex offenders disproportionate to other criminals perform the act again. I would like to see the evidence on re-offenders before I rush to any form of judgement.

3rd – Out legal system, our legal system is founded and therefore better than anyother system in the world (wouldn’t you agree) on the premise of innocent until proven guilty. However, with these programs we presuppose the opposite. We pre-suppose guilt, even after they have ‘paid their debt’ to society. To me something is wrong about that.

I am not opposed to creating harshing penalties and even mandatories (up to life) for forcible rape of a minors and other forms of abuse. To me that is seperate then pulling a big brother on individuals who supposedly have paid their debt to society, and are presumed perpetually guilty.

Agree or disagree?

Annie Jacobson’s suspicions Michelle Malkin, Blogs for Bush, Myopic Zeal Air America and the Fairness Doctrine Michelle Malkin Pope Benedict…

Let me explain however….

Anyone, and I MEAN ANYONE, convicted of molesting a child should NEVER be let out! They can not be rehabilitated. The only way this can be undone is if evidence comes before the court completely EXONERATING the said molester.

That being said, if someone goes to jail, does their time…their DONE. While I COMPLETELY abhor child molesters and agree they deserve death if they kill a child (and I think they deserve it for MOLESTING THEM)…if the Judicial system lets them out, they’ve paid their debt BY OUR OWN LAWS.

Asking them to wear LoJacks (if they’ve done their complete time! If they haven’t, then that should be a condition of parole, assuredly) is just plain wrong in the eyes of law as it’s been in the past. ie, fix that before you put a GPS tracker on someone who’s done their complete time.

You don’t, you’re breaking the law right along with them (albeit in a MUCH less worse way!)

They are being true to themselves — their sinful nature, Acts 17:16, Eph 4:17 – 19

Moreover, the solution offered by this new law serves to expand the police surveillance state that is creeping upon us now. Any person who lives among us that needs to be electronically collared I would think isn’t fit to be free anyhow. I have been wrestling in my own mind the possibility of transforming the people in question into eunuchs.
