Stuff like this really rile me up. I hate pedos, and rapists in general. Me and my mates were having a discussion about this, well, something similar. It was about that "Megan's Law" (UK verison "Sarah's Law") For anyone unfamiliar with this, its basically a law that people want where the government allow controlled access to the Sex Offenders Register so parents with young children can see if a child sex offender is living in their area. Now some of my mates were saying that this is wrong because... 1. It is a violaton of human rights to have to live with the sort of terror and general humilation that they would recieve from people in their area who knew that they were on the list 2. They would be less likely to get jobs and accomedation and all that if people knew of them being on "the list" because of the sterotyping and prejudice that comes with it 3. People who commit minor offences are put on the same list as those who commit a serious offence. EXAMPLE- you can get put on the sex offenders list for peeing in public, or flashing your arse at someone because its indecent exposure. So you would be on the sex offenders list for flashing someone, your name perhaps right under the name of that man who had kiddnapped and raped a young boy and was caught with over 100 child porn images at his home... ...and there was a load of other random bullshit excuses as to why this law should not be put into place. I personally think that: 1. Screw the pedos human rights. They lost any human rights that they had as soon as they took away the human rights of the child by doing whatever it is that they did 2. I wouldn't want a drug abuser working/living with me. I wouldn't want a political extremist working/living with me. I wouldn't want a theif working/living with me. I wouldn't want a child abuser working/living with me. Yup its sterotyping. 3. Granted, I accept that as a reason not to put this law into place. Just because I flash my bum at some poor innocent passerby when I am drunk, that doesn't put me in even the same league as a pedo... As a highly maternal person with a lot of young children in my family, I would want to know who the pedos in my area were so that I can protect my children. But hey, screw the law. I agree with KhawMengLee. They should just be shot. Then they would be no need for any law. I know, the death sentance doesnt give the criminal a chance to reform, we shouldn't play the role of God, yaddi yaddi ya, but hey. Shoot the bast***s. I not not really "for" or "against" much in many popular arugements. Am pretty easy going, however this one is one of the very few things that I am passionate about. I truly actually believe that they should be shot. Man I can't believe how much I have written!
