No, makes me sick they are even out in society..scum of the Earth
That's pretty harsh, given the range of offenses that qualify a person for the registry

I have never understood why peeing in an alley, or any other public place, is considered a sex crime. It's a natural bodily function that cannot be put off indefinitely. As long as the offender isn't masturbating in public, or waving their genitals around (face it, women almost never get charged with this), give them a $100 ticket with no other consequences, and send them on their way. That's pretty much the law in Texas, where you have to be exposing yourself with reckless disregard to be charged with a sex offense.
If you own a restaurant and your base customers don't like to dine in places where there are kids running around, it could work out favorably once you get the word out that you hired a registered sex offender. You can also pass the word that while in prison, he became the top farm-to-slammer chef to all the most famous serial killers except for Jeffrey Dahmer.

Apparently you've never been on the National Sex Offender Public Registry or similar sites? It not only shows the neighborhood where they live, it also has their name and photo.
And yes, there are those of us with kids and spouses who actually look at these lists once in a while....
I am aware of those sites, and no I have never looked at one. My question was not about those sites. So, why the snarky tone of the "And yes,...." sentence that follows is a mystery.
My question was based on the fact that to my knowledge businesses do not tell their customers about the details of their employees' private lives....as far as I knew. And I was asking about that because a previous comment by FatDave made me wonder if perhaps I was wrong about that.
Depends what the offense was, first of all (Urinating in public is a sex offense? Are you kidding me?) and second, if I was reasonably certain he or she didn't do the offense, (this happened to someone I know) I would hire him/her. So my answer is "It depends".

As they shouldn't. Truth is, there are plenty of jobs they can work without being a danger to society and most people nowadays, are falsely convicted or most often, convicted of non-existant "crimes" such as urinating in private (though the ordinaces don't call it private even if you are surrounded by tree cover) sex with someone just a few years younger than you, etc...
convictions are about money and making a quota. Gotta falsely convict at least 50% of the people to make those quotas. That's life. Same with DUI's. Rediculous people are thrown in jail for having a few drinks. The justice system is more of a racket than anything nowadays
