Actually I have heard talk that they should have to have a license plate that advertises their registered sex offender status, the same with drunk drivers.
Few, if any states, have a license plate that identifies someone convicted of DUI
Well if you are a rapist or child molester you shouldn't be allowed back into society. Life in prison, period. Most molesters and rapists will repeat their crime in the course of their lifetime, throw them in a cell and let them rot.
Now there are different levels of sex offender. Someone who got caught with a prostitute or in a massage parlor can be labeled a sex offender, in that case you have ask yourself is this person really a menace to society or just some poor sucker who got caught paying for sex with a consensual adult? It's a crime, but I don't think they should be labeled sex offenders. The whole concept of sex offender is idiotic...if you are dangerous enough to be labeled, then you don't belong outside of prison walls.
noooo that's not good enough!!! all of them child molesting rapest should get branded with a branding iron right in the middle of there forehead with the letters CR child rapest... just like they brand horses or cows no mistaking then that way.
What happens to the wrongfully accused then?
To the 13 yo caught grabbing a boob feel at school?
To the one that the "child" lied about their age to them?
What about the underage sex partner that parents gave consent to their partner?
These are all cases that have happened should they be branded for life? I like the permanent bracelet idea someone had as well as not letting them out of prison for their lifetime.
If ya only execute sex offenders after the 3rd conviction you can be safe that they aren't innocent.
You might be wrongly accused in the 1st trial, but being wrongly accused for the 3rd time?
for child rapists then i beleive they should be "outted". but it does get tricky when you have a 18 or 19 y/o high school senior with his 16 year old girlfirend.
there are lots of cases where the sex was consentual, but one partner reached the age of maturity and the other didnt.
i also dont think getting caught having sex on the beach should be cause to label someone as a sex offender.
but child rapists and predators, yes, throw the book at them.
i do think we have become a bit puritanical. hypocritical even.
i am in no way advocating to lower the legal age of consent. but it stirkes me as add, that a 14 year old can be tried as an adult for a crime, but wont be considered an adult when it comes to sexual relations...
thats more of an argument to raise the age for sentencing minors.

I understand about a 3rd time but there are many wrongfully accused and convicted on sex registries now. I want no 2nd chances for true sex predators. All I am saying is I know "victims" can lie or families can push forward because it is more "acceptable" if their darling was preyed upon as opposed to having consensual sex.
I know a young man who is a registered sex offender.
Now... Before you all string him up and cut off his schnutz, let me explain. Several years ago, when he was (I think) 20, he linked up and started messing around with a girl who repeatedly told him she was 19. Turns out she was 16.
So a horny, stupid young man is in lots of trouble and is now a registered sex offender.
Is there no difference between a stupid 20-year old, having consensual sex with a girl who lied to him - and a stupid 20-year old who is preying on children?
