Am I supposed to get all weepy and say "oh the injustice" now? Every law and every crime ever committed has had at least one injustice done. So what. 99% of them don't. For every 1,000,000 justices, there's 1 injustice. I'll live with it.

All I care about is the little sick bastard that lives in walking distance from me that has been convicted of one of the following:

What offenses are subject to Sex Offender Registration?

* Indecent Solicitation of a child;
* Sexual Exploitation of a child;
* Soliciting for a Juvenile Prostitute;
* Keeping a place of Juvenile Prostitution;
* Patronizing a Juvenile Prostitute;
* Juvenile Pimping;
* Exploitation of a Child;
* Child Pornography;
* Criminal Sexual Assault;
* Aggravated Criminal Sexual Assault;
* Predatory Crimial Sexual Assault of a Child;
* Criminal Sexual Abuse, when a felony;
* Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse;
* Ritualized Abuse of a Child;
* Forcible Detention, if the victim is under 18 years of age;
* Indecent Solicitation of an Adult;
* Soliciting for a Prostitute, if the victim is under 18 years of age;
* Pandering, if the victim is under 18 years of age;
* Patronizing, if the victim is under 18 years of age;
* Pimping, if the victim is under 18 years of age; and
* Any attempt to commit the above offenses.

The old "he got busted with a hooker" or "he got busted for sex with his 15 year old girlfriend", argument doesn't work, cause those aren't included.

If you ever need a babysitter, let me know and I'll give you this guys address. Then you can go "decrying the injustice" all you want by making a point that you TRUST him!
I agree that true pedophiles are lower than scum, but you've made some factual errors here. First, 1% of 1,000,000 is 10,000, not 1. That level of injustice would be troubling to me. Hopefully, the actual error rate is much lower than 1%.

Second, many of the items in your list can and be used in your "he got busted for sex with his 15 year old girlfriend" example. Some of them have been. I've also read of at least two cases of parents being charged with child pornography (and threatened with sex offender status) for taking innocent pictures of their children. All it takes is an over-zealous prosecutor. From your list:

* Indecent Solicitation of a child;
* Sexual Exploitation of a child;
* Exploitation of a Child;
* Child Pornography;
* Any attempt to commit the above offenses

Others, too, I'm sure. You are probably right. That guy down the street probably is a sick little bastard. Before you crucify him, however, you might want to verify your assumptions. (No, I don't know the outcome of the two cases involving parents and pictures.)

In most of these cases they will repeat the offense several times unless stopped. Shock collars doesn't sound as such a bad idea, although a lethal injection or even castration might prove more effective.

chemical castration if you cant stomach the cheaper bullet to the back of the head solution....

personal choice would be to a*s rape them with a 12 gauge shotgun, only a quick pull of the trigger away when they start begging for the pain to stop.....

I'm sure you wouldn't be so defensive of child molesters, if you had to drive by one's house on the way to work every day, knowing your 3 year old daughter is going to be seen every day playing in the yard by said child molester.

I have to walk by bums, idiots and fools every day. That's part of living in the real world.

Oh it is? Since it's the "real world" and we can't do anything about it, we should just let them "have at it" with our kids? You have some kind of severe "defend the criminal instead of the victim" mentality. Are you a defense lawyer in real life? Or do you belong to NAMBLA?

Well I wasn't even going to say anything but we have had two that I have seen on TV this year around here, When they told how many times it happens man, I seen people talking about payment for their debt to society, Rehabilitation, They would not be able to live a normal life after they did their time, The problem is they are not normal and never will be but they think they are and it is just their sex, The one on TV that they were letting out I know more people than me seen it, He said if you let me out I will do it again cause that is my sex, I can say I will never do it again but you say you will never have sex with your wife or girlfriend, You can say it but their will be a time when you have to do it so I am not going to lie, The other one the little girl was not even a year old, It was in Indianapolis, You tell me any man that can have intercourse with a baby can be rehabilitated, Sad part is sooner or later you always see a body that is when they know they are doing something wrong so they have to hide what they do, I don't have kids and don't think I could live through something like that knowing the pain one went through or wrose, Yes I would look into anything that would stop monsters like that
