This is true. And we wouldn’t need the stupid registry if they would lock up (or worse) the really dangerous offenders. Rapists, child molesters, people who commit real sex crimes are not fixable and they should not be released. Well, unless they are released and then tethered permanently to the judge or parole board members who let them out.
There is a time worn, essential way to eliminate the sex drive of domesticated male mammals and it ought to be used on these beasts. So much cheaper than incarceration. Let the eunuch walk among his neighbors, fat and balding after his orchiectomy, as an example to other violent teenagers coming along. Let him toil and pay taxes but not reproduce or lounge in jail. Who knows? We might be able to breed it out of mankind. If not genetically, then by stopping the apple from falling off the tree; i.e. gentling the violent daddy. We all know there is a cycle of violence.
Unfortunately, in my current neighborhood, I’d rather have access to a Burglary Offender List.
I’m not kidding much, but seriously: There’s no serial assaulter list, no murderer list...
