When someone commits a crime and is found guilty, put them in prison. When they have served their time and are released, leave them alone and let them try to rebuild their lives. If a crime is extremely violent or serious, put them in jail for a LONG time! But if they are released, then leave them alone too! Once a person has paid their debt to society, they have PAID THEIR DEBT TO SOCIETY! Isn’t that the purpose of prisons, to punish people for crimes they commit? Once they have served their time, it’s nothing less than corrupt to keep on punishing them. It’s not that difficult to understand. One more thing, most sexual offenders of children are either friends of the family or family members so even if offenders live on the moon they will most likely still be around the kids they are most likely to offend with, and even if they live nowhere near a school or park, all they would need to get near a school or park, is a car!

I agree, that also goes along with my stand on restoring gun and voting rights to former inmates. I don’t mean allowing them to CC on day one, but after all fines are paid and the parole or in other terms are met. Either you are a citizen, or you are not. Former felons HAVE to be allowed to strive to become completely part of “normal” society. Actually, I think the reason that the “man” is afraid of letting former felons own guns, it is their favorite means of putting them back in prison. You know, man pulled over for broken tail light, found with pistol in the trunk....sent away for 7 years.
