Yes, I can see how we should have sympathy towards those who sexually abuse and murder little children. (/sarcasm)
Those are the "citizens" you are so concerned about.
You are sounding like the ACLU, worrying about the right of the murderers, but not about the rights of little children to grow up without being sexually molested and murdered by these criminals.
You are too much!
What a load of $%*#!
