First of all, let me say there is probably nothing more heinous than a sex crime because it involves both mental and physical abuses. With that said, I think requiring registration (that is made public) of sex offenders or anyone for that matter is a huge violation of privacy. This is not to say that I think sex offenders should be walking around freely doing whatever they’d like, but we should definitely rethink our judicial system that let them back out. If we think these people are so risky that we must register them and have the rest of the world monitoring their every move, then perhaps we shouldn’t be letting them out in the first place. If some one’s actions warrant their home be listed as SEX OFFENDER, giving the public the all of the information they need for vigilante justice, then perhaps we are doing things all wrong. To thwart this malicious behavior, we should have steeper consequences. In no way, should we allow these people out in public, where they can strike again, or be stricken against. Am I the only one who thinks that the public register is a violation of privacy? Or do these criminals that haven’t been given proper justice lose that right to privacy?
