Sex Offenders

I say until they figure out how to un-rape someone, a rapist never goes free.

One issue I have is that if you get in trouble for taking a leak in public (even just on the side of the road) you could end up on that list. I don't know if that is true but I heard it has happened.

It's true and it's absolutely ridiculous.

Say what??! Our prison system is a messed up snafu.
All it really does is warehouse people in ugly conditions with the hope that they will try to stay out next time.
Our society hasn't made any meaningful effort to research what might actually work as far as rehabilitation goes, nor is it willing to spend $ to implement it.

My wife works with the county halfway house here. It's an institution that is at least nominally intended to do rehabilitation.
Still, it's a degrading place with almost no regard for human dignity. They deal out punishments as if the residents are grade school kids, and frequently don't take the time to figure out what actually happened before booting someone back to prison.
My wife figures they are lucky when 10% of the people are able to stay out, and that's not the kind of results I would boast about.

Here is a great article on a Self-Governed prison in San Pedro. It's a great read. Our justice system is extremely flawed. We have more people in prison per-capita than pretty much every single country out there.

Oh I dont want anyone to know I got trashed and slept with the whole team so I cry rape.
shit like that makes me want to vomit.

This is one of the worst things. I've watched friends go through this kind of shit because of a female that wanted attention and it was absolute hell.

^ This. Rapists should be locked up for life without parole.

Disagree, just because then we pay for them. Serious rapists and pedos should be put to death IMO.

People that pee in public, or a young guy who sleeps with his girlfriend and her parents freak out shouldn't have to live with that forever tho.

Agreed

No concerns, once we all "settle-in" under Sharia law here is the USSA this shit won't matter.

The serious predators should never go free. Years ago I listened to an interview with someone who had had been studying these people. He was a card carrying liberal and so was the interviewer. When he was asked what he would suggest, he tried for a bland response but finally said that the hard core types should never, ever go free. He even suggested that we find some island and just let them stay there forever. He felt that they were just wired wrong and even if they wanted to reform they'd be back doing bad stuff. There was a long silence after this since this was not what the interviewer was expecting. Perhaps Devil's Island has room?

I also agree that this list should be cleaned up so only dangerous types be on it. I had heard that about taking a wiz so when I'm out in the country and have to pull over I go as far away from the road as possible.

The recidivism rate for violent sex offenders is in the area of 96%. These bastards need the 5.56 brain hemmorage, plain and simple.

hmmm... Everytime I say a robber, rapist, murderer, etc needs a bullet in the head I get flamed... and not a single person on here is crying about teh sanctity of life?... maybe hte same people aren't reading this thread...

But all in all, I believe violent and repeat offenders should just be killed.

[Ah Pook]

Personally, I feel that there should be some sort of grading system. Real rapists and child molesters; you gave up your right to breathe.

But it is a fact that many people who would have otherwise led productive lives have been destroyed by the sex offender label. The college student who was accused by a girl who didn't want to be thought a slut...afterwords. Pissing on a tree. These are but a couple of examples.

Agreed.

Isn't this site great, nobody just jumps all over you for such a thought?

I care about the sanctity of life, which is why I agree with you- if it's someone that is likely to repeatedly hurt other people, then it does more to protect life by removing his...

I haven't seen anything in this thread I don't agree with- truly violent & predator type offenders should be removed from public in a way that is just as humane as they deserve (how's that for wording it in a PC manner?)

but the system needs work, as there are lots of stupid ways to get on the same list... which can diminish the impact of "being on the list", unless one knows why you're on the list.
