Who Dugg It?

presto, on 10/12/2007, -36/+17Name, shame and now track the perverts! Dugg!
- GoGoUnicorn, on 10/12/2007, -22/+60pervert surveillance is still surveillance. hello big brother.
- vaguelyrandom, on 10/12/2007, -17/+12I'm not against the surveillance, but people forget that the person most likely to abuse a child is a member of their own family. Sad but true. Lock up all the Uncles - that's what i say!
- mistarojaz, on 10/12/2007, -13/+4that baby looks fake
- Depthfunction, on 10/12/2007, -18/+12Excellent! I'm going to take this map, form a vigilante gang, and beat the ***** out of all of the pervs in my area. Thanks, Digg!
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -5/+29Finally, I can get off craigslist and find some real action!
- vaguelyrandom, on 10/12/2007, -17/+4I'm a little sad i'm being dugg down on this one. Either digg is full of closet paedo's or the truth simply hurts too much...
- shodanx, on 10/12/2007, -8/+15parents are dumb, irrational
  they're the stuff linch mobs are made of
  
  they'd sacrifice 10 strangers to save one of their kids
  they can't be trusted

  I guess a site like this would be OK if no one will use this map to attack the people that have served their penalties and been released as free men or women. Can you really guarantee this? Otherwise it seems it's just a risk of causing more trouble with the law than these offenders already did. Do you believe cops catching people attacking these would closet paedo's as well? I'm not sure, but your logic is a bit on the strange side.
- vaguelyrandom, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13@Jugalator
  
  My 2nd comment was made as the original was being dugg down. The main point of the original post being:
  
  "people forget that the person most likely to abuse a child is a member of their own family"
  
  This is the case in every western country in the world. The vast (*VAST*) majority of child abuse cases are performed by a male member of the direct family. A sad and horrible truth, but a truth all the same.
  
  You can (and will) digg me down all you like for it. I just wonder why.
- slaystench, on 10/12/2007, -0/+27"Don't want to be tracked online? Don't ***** children. Doesn't seem that tough."
  
  Mooning, consensual sex, public urination (even in the woods), etc. can get one labeled as a sex offender. We should be worried about pedophiles, not most of the ***** that actually does get a person labeled a sex offender.
- realsurreal2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12"Don't want to be tracked online? Don't ***** children. Doesn't seem that tough."
  
  And don't get mistaken for one or be the victim of duff data.
- darkamster07, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Public urination!? *****! anyway does this map have those innocent kids that were labeled as sex offenders on it? I would like to pay them a visit to see how they are doing (not good I bet). Honestly, anyone think a map of convicted murderers would be a lot more helpful, sex offender is an umbrella term. If you are going to take this seriously then you must remember that statistically, you, or any other close relation, are more likely to molest or rape your kids than any stranger. This map will just prevent you from sending your kids into a neighborhood where some guy has pissed in an alley (probably me)
- vertinox, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Actually sex offenders aren't just pervs. Many people who are caught peeing in public are registered as sex offenders.
- macaddct1984, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Sweet! Now I can find out where all those sick, sick 17 year olds who have oral sex with their 16 year old girlfriends are!
  
  Oh wait, they've been sent to prison for 10 years...
- dggeek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I guess time served is no longer paying your debt to society?
  
  Hey, while we're at it, why don't we track drug dealers, too? They hurt children. And casual drug users, they support the drug dealers.
  
  I realize that sexual offenders have a high rate of multiple offense, but this is not the answer. Rehabilitation is the answer.
Universal, on 10/12/2007, -10/+45Direct link: http://www.mapsexoffenders.com/

Now they just need to add live GPS tracking of all sex offenders.
- radicaldementia, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Wow the map of NYC is downright disturbing. Just do searches for Bronx, NY and Brooklyn, NY. eek!
- vaguelyrandom, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Sadly, in the UK, pediatricians would probably end up on a map like this...
- jamison18, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14In California, they actually do have to wear GPS trackers now :) thanks to prop 83
- merreborn, on 10/12/2007, -3/+17So, this is pretty much the definition of blogspam, no? Someone pimping their own blog?
  
  Lord knows if I posted a link to merrebornweb.com/merreborn, I'd be buried as blogspam in no time...
- AnteChronos, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5"So, this is pretty much the definition of blogspam, no?"
  
  Unfortunately. This seems to be a useful resource (though I haven't tested it myself), but I have to bury it on general principle. I mean, if the blog added any extra information, I might be tempted to let it slide, but the blog posting is little more than, "Hey, look at the site I found!" followed by a copy-n-paste from the site's own "About Us" page. Shameless blogspam of this nature shouldn't be tolerated. If you want traffic to your blog, come up with some original content instead of regurgitating someone else's.
- darkamster07, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3@ vaguelyrandom
  
  you're telling me, I hate it when my school makes me go get a physical because it is required by law. If I wanted some strange lady feeling up my balls I would go to church.
Yashar, on 10/12/2007, -4/+8Aw *****. One of them is about 5 houses away from me.
- sniper6121, on 10/12/2007, -5/+5Same here and there is an elementary school across the street!
- socalrob, on 10/12/2007, -5/+3You guys think thats bad, I have one also about 6 houses down from me with a Community college down the street, ok not so bad, but then just 2 streets over is a street that has about 3 different elementary schools and 1 junior high on it with 3 different offenders living basically across the street, then the high school which is 2 blocks away from the elementary school has another one near that. My city is pretty low on crime it just has a lot of sick perverted a-holes living in it!
- AnteChronos, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19"Same here and there is an elementary school across the street!"
  
  You do realize that "sex offender" does not equal "pedophile", right? People get all hysterical over sex offenders being around their kids, when there's probably a higher likelihood that he (statistically speaking, probably a "he") was the perpetrator of standard rape, and has no interest in children. Hell, it could be someone who had sex with their 16 year old girlfriend when they were 18 and got charged with statutory rape.
  
  In other words, no need to get too paranoid here. Besides, there's no "violent assault" database or "murderer" database, so how many of your neighbors have been charged with violent crimes? You don't know, do you? Would having that information make you more safe? Doubtful.
  
  So look at the database if you want, but try not to freak out about it.
- realsurreal2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Equally, your next door neighbour could be a druggy, pimp, murderer, wife-beater etc who hasn't been caught yet - they won't show up on any map either.
- manova, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1My parents next door neighbor! I even waived to him while visiting my parents over christmas.
  
  That being said, sex offender is way to broad a term. Probably just got caught at 18 banging his 16 yo girlfriend.
thefutureisours, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Wow. No sex offenders in Washington State. Great news indeed!
- SanTe, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2You might want to try again. I noticed it either doesn't always work or is extremely slow. My search on Seattle turned up a half dozen or so. Still, that's better than Brooklyn, NY, which seemingly has a half dozen on every street!
sideshowRAHEEM, on 10/12/2007, -12/+4One of these ***** lives right next to a park in my neighborhood.
- SuitCase874, on 10/12/2007, -5/+15Go ***** lynch him! huhuhuhuh! ***** pedos! huhuhuh
  
  This is pathetic.
- shodanx, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3don't worry, you're to ugly to get sexually offended
  
  unless he's into uglies
  then you're screwed

- Sanitarium, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Dude, thats just lame. I wish there was a way to digg a user himself down. Buried.
- stupidfathead, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Just ignore this guy. He is posting that crap to different digg stories just to mess with people.

Nice to see they're covering their asses.
- DavidtheDuke, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Holy crap! I'm going totally SCHIZO looking at this map!
rcran, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1I am sure MURPHY,LEE ANTHONY is happy right about now.
AuroraAlpha, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Hm...

I guess I am safe by about 1/3 of a mile, but thats not much. I am amazed by how many there are in such a wealthy and 'safe' area I am suppost to be living in.
- Daniel591992, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7Apparently, education isn't a big thing there...
TGMD, on 10/12/2007, -5/+27They paid their debt to society.

You don't want sex offenders on your streets? Then increase the amount of time they spend in prison. But once their out they don't deserve to be treated this way. They were punished and no matter what they did in the past they still have a right to privacy.

(Although personally I think we should execute most sex offenders instead of giving them short prison terms)
- bovester, on 10/12/2007, -6/+4That would be great and everything, but studies show that sex offenders have the highest rate of repeated offenses as compared to other types of criminals. Unfortunately I have a friend who had sex with a 14-year-old. He spent 16 months in prison and is now in the database. Though he is my friend, I think that if I had kids and lived near him I would be outraged that I was not allowed that information.
- 98acura, on 10/12/2007, -14/+8they should have to wear giant ***** neon yellow signs that say "I am a sex offender" ***** them, they have no rights.. once you ***** a kid, you lost your right to a normal life..
- Rikkochet, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3"And executing sex offenders is not murder how?"
  
  It's not not murder. It's murder. Great, wonderful, state-sanctioned murder. And the only solution for these incurable degenerates
- ssego, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Just remember that not all sex offenders '***** a kid'. Some of them are statutory rape, and would not have been charged if they only checked ID before they boned. Lots of young girls run around ***** older guys to look cool to their prostitot friends, even if it means lying about their age. I can't count how many of my friends have found out a girl they shot with the meat rifle where under age. Then you've also got the 18 year olds with 16 year old girlfriends. All it takes is one pissed off parent and your on the registry.
- shodanx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4@ssego
  stop it with your party-killing "facts" and let the rest of the digg parents community go about their lynching will ya ?
- fatdog789, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4Not all sex offenders are child molestors. People convicted of statutory rape are considered sex offenders.
  
  (See the Diggs from a few weeks ago where teens where being charged for statutory rape even though they and the "victim" were both under the age of consent. )
  
  In some states, mostly the South, gays, lesbians, transgenders, and unmarried heterosexual couples are registered as sex offenders. While these laws are rarely enforced, from time to time, some uppity vote-seeking prosecutor will make use of them.
  
  In some states, there are laws under consideration. that would make sexual harassment into a crime requiring sex offender registration. (None have passed yet, but the votes on a few were disturbing).
  
  If you want to punish/incapacitate child molestors constitutionally, make the surveillance a part of the original punishment. Don't tack it on later.
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4"once you ***** a kid, you lost your right to a normal life.."
  
  Why do you assume it's just about kids? It's not, if you searched some people listed on this site. And how do we know who're listed? How severe does the crime need to be? I know *I* would be a sex offender if I while being drunk grabbed a girl on her boobs and got reported according to some standards. So many seem to be listed that I believe the requirement is pretty low, and that makes things even worse.
HardSide, on 10/12/2007, -5/+5http://www.familywatchdog.us

Much better...shows where they live, where they work, what they did, pictures, etc...

There is another one which is updated by the government. has a .gov link in it...forget whats the site.
- fjvwing, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Thing is, there are discrepancies between that set of maps and the one in the article. So how reliable is all this information?
- Jugalator, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2If it's unreliable and just a bit too similar people are seen on the wrong address, just imagine what damage this could do.
  Fate would make things too hilarious by having a guy defending these things here mistakenly being lynched.
- suppressingfire, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I live around the corner from a hotel that specializes in housing 1st time sex offenders after they get out of jail. The one linked in the article shows one person living there, the one you linked to has the full list of offenders.
- 3monkeys, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@HardSide, Very nioce indeed I will add this to the article
Bob042, on 10/12/2007, -3/+8A survey popped up asking "What do you use our maps for?"
Second option is "Locate my own home"
WTF?
- Chipsandsnacks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2to see if any live near you of course DER
JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Why don't we brand murderers and thieves as well for the rest of their lives? Surely we must protect society from them as well.
Would that be cruel and unusual punishment you say? Let them serve their time and leave them alone? Where is the line drawn?
- ArntorFTL, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Personally, I would feel far more secure knowing if my neighbor or others on my street are convicted burglars or car thieves rather than peter flashers or 16 year old girl fetishists.
  
  If these people are so dangerous to society that they need to be monitored 24/7, have their whereabouts tracked, homes mapped and identities/addresses plastered on the internets for the world to see, then, by all means, PLEASE leave them in jail.
- Supurcell, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2Because there are some crimes that are so heinous that they can never be forgiven. Sexually violating our children is one of them.
- crysys, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5One problem with this is we are led to believe sex offenders tend to be repeat offenders. If the prison system does nothing to rehabilitate these people then can they really be trusted around your children? Do we need to change the way we deal with sex offenders?
  
  True, your supposed to be done when your time has been served but in the real world this is hardly the case. Felons ARE denied jobs despite laws to protect them. How bad is it for a sex offender to who truly has changed their ways to integrate back into society?
- JamesWilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9"Sexually violating our children is one of them."
  
  You mean like the 17 year old black male who was found guilty of receiving oral sex from a 15 year old white female and received 10 years in prison and lifetime sex offender status?
  How dare he!
  I agree this is probably the exception and not the rule but I continually see the definitions of "sexual predator" and "terrorist" being constantly changed to be more broad in the last 10 years.
  Also a lot of job applications not only ask if you have been committed of a felony, but now tell you that you have to pass a drug test. And a background check. And an alcohol test. And some jobs places even check your credit before hiring you. And of course you are required to give them your social security number.
  And if you rebel against any of this you are branded "unamerican" with the simple "if you're not with us, you're against us" mentality.
  
  I love America. I just wish it was the way it should be.
- crysys, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2@somebitches2
  
  While you sound pretty angry and biased against all things America in your comment, one thing that you said struck a cord.
  
  Democracy is absolutely a garbage in, garbage out system. It's too bad that our education system is obsessed with getting the multiple choice answers on a test right rather than teaching the basic foundations for good sense and logical thinking.
  
  Common sense never is.
nobuz, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0what about the webmaster ?

does he have connections with sex offenders ?
another scam artist.
zetsurin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8Waits for all the witch hunts as idiots try to take the law into their own hands despite the legal system having done it's job...
crysys, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Oh god they're everywhere!!

Seriously though, there is a middle school down the street from me and I looked up it's address on one of these maps once and a small neighborhood right next to it was filled with a concentration of dots. I thought there were rules that governed how far from school these offenders could live; there was nothing but a set of railroad tracks between this group and the school. It was like they took over a whole block and established their own little nation of Pedotoria. Scary.
zeno60, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4That picture on the front of mapsexoffenders.com scares the livin crap outta me...
- Sanitarium, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It looks like the baby's face was photoshopped on.
- thespiff, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2I know, if it weren't for the happy baby I'd think they were supposed to be the sex offenders. Then again, even the damn baby looks creepy.
QueenBeeCassi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I came across a site like this a while back. It was interesting to find out that a local radio DJ who was fired for a sexual offense lives right down the street from me.
camaj126, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8This makes me feel bad for the guys who got caught for public urination and got registered as a sex offender.
milomilomilo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5this is a good thing.
The only problem with the sex offender registry is that it also includes things such as public urination and similarly ridiculous things.
Glad we can keep our kids safe, but be careful with broad sweeping stuff like "sex offender".
Dugg
Lixie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I'm totally dumb and ignorant, so I have to ask, Why isn't there a Murderer's registry?

Or is there already one I don't know about?

Oh, and I had to bury the article because it was posting to a blog rather than actual source. Says something in the TOS about that being spam used to increase blog traffic.
drjekelmrhyde, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oh my god DIGGS HQ is on the map
- Jsmakr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2It's on this map too: http://www.partygps.com/locations.php?zip=94103 :)
magic6435, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Its Amazing that we say people are sent to jail or "corrective institution's" to be rehabilitated then track them like cattle... sounds to me like the people in charge don't have faith in their own system?
leftfoot, on 10/12/2007, -5/+1Thank you for the link, seriously.

Good to know what kind of trash is in my community.
Seph7, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Oh lets create more parent paranoia great idea!

Why not just lock your child in their bedroom and pass them dinner through slot in the door. That way your child will never be abused, never do drugs, never hang out with the wrong crowd, oh and never have a well rounded personality and be able to cope in the real world. Brilliant Idea!
- crysys, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Because if you do that your kid will fall in love with the slutty girl from next door and when she moves away he will break out and travel cross country meeting all kinds of crazy, strange and scary characters in his highly cinematic wacky and entertaining adventure. But don't worry, in the end everything works itself out, he gets the girl and you learn an important lesson; you can't protect your kids from the real world forever and trying to do so will only leave them unprepared to deal with it when they ultimately do have to.
  
  Yea, that was a funny movie.
kablammo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5Next time link to the actual site - not your blog which will *then* link us to the site. Before you know it, every story on here will be a two step process of going to the submitters homepage before we can read what we're actually interested in.

koushi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9http://www.mapsexoffenders.com/images/family1b.jpg That's the scariest ***** picture ever.
brstilson, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10This makes me wonder just what exactly a "sex offender" is. In some states, urinating in public is considered indecent exposure, and if the judge decides to be an ***** that day, a person caught could get lumped in with the child molesting sickos.

Had sex with your g/f when she was 1 year below the legal age and you were 1 year above? Guess what, you're a sex offender! And a rapist! You're officially on the same level of John Wayne Gacy.

Accusing someone of a sex crime grants you a lot of power. It can ruin someone's life, permanently, even when they are falsely accused. I'm not supporting the real perverts in any way, I'm just saying that not everyone on this map is a dirty child molester.
Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11You guys call these people "sick *****" etc... but do you not remember the CHILD that was going to be marked as a sex offender at the age of 6 or so because he put his face on his teacher's chest while giving her a hug?
ggarenn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4this kind of thing is so hard to comment on...there are SO many reasons why this kind of registry should not exist, but at the same time, you bet your ass i checked my neighborhood and also my family's neighborhood where my little brother lives. if we were all completely unbiased, we'd say that having a registry like this is wrong and COMPLETELY unconstitutional.

I mean, what is the point of sending offenders to prison, or a "correctional facility"? To "correct" them, right? And also, why aren't there registries for every type of serious crime? Only seems fair.

I definitely think that the justice system is far from perfect, but i guess it's something.
- Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1How do you want to find out your son's friend's dad is a sex offender? From a website or after he rapes your kid?
- zetsurin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"How do you want to find out your son's friend's dad is a sex offender?"
  
  There you go, this is a classic example: you are assuming they are regular or current sex offenders. You are acting as though this is a map of people who are actively comitting sexual crimes and it's not.
- ggarenn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5@ Pic0
  
  well how do you think? i think i'd much rather know from a website. the problem is that not EVERYBODY on there is a "stereotypical sex offender". that's why it seems ***** up to me. try this: you're 18, you're girlfriend is 16. you get caught *****. her parents don't like you, so they file charges. you will most likely be convicted, and then congrats, you're a rapist and now on the registry. if this story represents even ONE of those red markers, that means this system is being unjust. but again, i can't say much because i don't have the solution.
  
  when i was 18, i did have a girlfriend that was 16. we did get caught *****. luckily, her parents liked me a lot, so there was no reason for anyone to press charges. all that happened was we had a couple awkward dinners :). but you know, what if
- heresy0, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2We're talking about people who have already served their time, but are doomed to be monitored and frowned upon for the rest of their lives. I think the limitations that they put on felons is borderline unconstitutional, but this... this is just absurd. As people have already said, there are lots of kinds of sex offenders and they are all classified the same. Most are not repeat offenders.
- Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1@ ggarenn
  
  besides the fact that it sounds like you bragging... there are laws for a reason. Your case is a special one, nobody reported. But for those parents that do not like the person their daughter is dating, they need something to protect their daughter.
- AnteChronos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"But for those parents that do not like the person their daughter is dating, they need something to protect their daughter."
  
  So they press charges, and the boyfriend gets charged with statutory rape. Then a couple of years later the daughter says "screw my parents", and she and her boyfriend get married. So now the poor guy's registered as a sex offender for "raping" his wife! And some dumbass sees him on the sex offender list as having molested a child, thinks he's a pedophile, and decides to harass him (or worse).
  
  Yep, sounds fair to me.
  /sarcasm
- ggarenn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0@ Pic0
  
  bragging? what part of my comment was bragging? please point it out.
  
  to the point: there is so much wrong with this statement...it just hurts.
  
  there are many different viewpoints when it comes to whether or not this registry benefits society and if it should be allowed, and realistically, they can all be perceived as reasonable and justifiable. that's why i said i don't have a solution. you can argue all sides/viewpoints, and each one has equal strength. i guess that's why it's controversial huh?

- ggarenn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"But for those parents that do not like the person their daughter is dating, they need something to protect their daughter."
  
  that's the quote i meant to have in my above comment between the lines that start with "bragging" and "to the point". for some reason it was left out. sorry :)
- brstilson, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Pic0, whats the deal?
  First,
  
  "You guys call these people "sick *****" etc... but do you not remember the CHILD that was going to be marked as a sex offender at the age of 6 or so because he put his face on his teacher's chest while giving her a hug?"
  
  then
  
  "How do you want to find out your son's friend's dad is a sex offender? From a website or after he rapes your kid?"
  
  I don't get it. Do you support the site or not? Or do you have multiple personality disorder?
TH3W1R3D, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2OMG. Look up Compton, CA
allmytrials, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2here's an idea mr "good parent" blogger... why not just lock your child in an iron box until he/she/it is 18, that way totally safeguarding he/she/it against these predatory sex offenders? ...or.... here's another, more radical idea, why not just get over it and allow yourself and your children to live your lives out-with the shadow of paedophilia paranoia (and yes, it is paed, not ped, before the spelling police attack me. im in the uk).
rgodfrey, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I don't suppose I'll make many friends by saying this, but how are these guys expected to rebuild their lives after hard time? It's got to be hard enough for an ex-felon without mandatory registration and websites like this. If we accept the notion that prison is meant to rehabilitate the prisoner, shouldn't we consider the debt paid when they get out? And if prison is not reformatory, shouldn't we either work to change that, or just leave everyone in there forever?
Chipsandsnacks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Nice, only three in my entire town of 50,000.

But seriously...y'all gotta change your panties and stop being paranoid
- Chipsandsnacks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3And...apparently in the city where I go to college...some of them live in the ocean?
- stonebear, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Sailors! Such nefarious creatures, with their hearty lifestyle and lore of the sea. And those bawdy shanties! We must burn a mark into their flesh. All of them, just to make sure. Let none escape on land or sea. It’s for the children’s sake, after all.
- kazuhima, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1they were taken out into the ocean by people who were scared of them? lol
ScienceDoc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2One of many like this. This one doesn't seem to work very well.
hotstyle765, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Wow that's great... I got one living down the street from me... (level 3 sex offender)
I've jumped his car... He did give me a weird stare before he asked for the jump though.

Luckily he doesn't like boys.
doubledowndan, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8Buried as innacurate, i cant find myself anywhere on there.
bigrodey77, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I'm not a child molester or a pervert or whatever you might want to call me, but I think this is wrong. Whatever happen to our 8th Amendment in the United States ... Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted. These sex offender registries are ridiculous. Sure, there are some people that need to register as in the people who rape 2 year olds and young children. But what about someone who just screws someone a couple years younger than them. I'm not saying what they did is right, but there is a clear and distinct difference between consensual and non consensual sexual acts. The law does not see a difference between the two and we end up with people who are going to prison and being tagged as sex offenders for the rest of their lives just because they had consensual sex.

Perhaps all you self-righteous bastards commenting on how great this is need to check this link out ...

...only because it was Dugg over 3500 times.
wilf_brim, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Whoohoo. No pervs in my neighborhood. Some good points raised, in that the "sex offender" label is a bit broad right now, which I don't think is a good thing. Mixing up 19 year olds who got too drunk and pissed in public (public nudity) with the John Wayne Gacey types just dilutes out the point.
jdc347, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Anyone else come up with only offenders from Iowa. Soemhow I feel this isn't a complete listing....
AnotherEdd, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1people who hurt children (in anyway) need to have a limb removed.. end of story.

if you're 18 and have a 16yr old girlfriend buy a magazine... it's a law... don't like it? guess what you're 18 you can vote now!

the family watchdog offender site above is more accurate, but both tools are invaluable resources when you're picking a daycare for your children, a school, or a place to live in a new city.. this tool shows where there are clusters.. and I'm sure that correlates with certain parts of town...

moving to denver.. look it up and see where the flags are I say!
- quaff, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4ok.. so a law is a law right? so in nazi germany when it was a law to put jews into concentration camps, you'd follow that law? cause its a LAW? don't be stupid. use your head, think for yourself. Laws are made by humans, humans are not perfect, therefore the law is not perfect. If you don't believe in the law, don't follow it, think about it.
kurfu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3This is unconstitutional (see "cruel and unusual punishment").

If someone has served their time, then they deserve to be left alone.
If they are still a danger to society, keep them in prison.
fishrjv, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Only a matter of time before the government designs a pervert line of clothing for them to wear. Hrmm.. I wonder what that would entail?
- AnteChronos, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2"I wonder what that would entail?"
  
  Well, it wouldn't be fair to make them buy special clothes. Plus, manufacturing custom clothes for a relatively small market would be expensive. Maybe some sort of patch they could wear. The only problem then is the design. I'm thinking a yellow star for some reason....
- ggarenn, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1@ AnteChronos
  
  Bright blue hats with individualized embroideries of their initials on the brim. :)
- Chipsandsnacks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2That just smacks of Scarlet Letter/Jews in Nazi Germany.
5hop4orce, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Description should have read:

"Criminals can use this map to shake down vulnerable targets. Vigilantes can use this map to enforce mob justice."
zazzazh, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Digg's favorite atheist Richard Dawkin has said religion is "a form of mental child abuse".

Not underestimating the horrors of sexual abuse.. But I do think Dawkin is right. Just see movie Jesus Camp and think whether your child should be thinking issues like abortion at age of 7.

So.. http://maps-of-lunatic-evangelics.com/ anyone? Showing the homes and workplaces of lunacy convicted evangelicals in the U.S..

All I'm saying maybe we shouldn't turn our society into big surveillance system.
- 5hop4orce, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I think that happens in book three of the Left Behind series.
dugR, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1lol , where i live there is only one sex offender, and he lives right next to my friends house. his crime was incest.
