I kind of wonder why, when people are convicted of sex crimes and serve their time, they then basically have a ton of their rights taken away seemingly for the rest of their lives.
I kind of get why that's the case, but what if, instead of being able to look online and see the current residence of every sex offender in town, you could see a list of everyone's crimes, traffic violations, DUIs, etc.? Why is it OK to put so many "extra" punishments on sex offenders only?
And I get that sex offenders are typically habitual, but is there ever a chance that one or some of them aren't? If so, then we've basically taken away any chance they have at any kind of a life after they've served their time.
The only people we should try to get even with...
...are those who've helped us.
Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.
