Facebook recently purged over 5500 registered sex offenders from their social networking service, and now a new bill in Texas is calling for sex offenders to also register their email addresses, cell phone numbers, and online screen names, in addition to the usual address and photo available to the public.
Won't someone think of the sex offenders? Actually, one guy's case might make you reconsider.
In the case of Marc P. in Texas, his crime was a decade ago, when he had sex with a 14 year old at age 18. We personally know tons of sluts who had bfs in their 20s and even 30s while they were still underage. But should those old sleazes who engaged in consensual relationships be on sex offender lists with violent rapists and molesters? Also, critics have also pointed out that the current system is already rife with errors.
"What's next, a
chip in my brain? A scarlet letter?" asked Marc in the Dallas News.
"Are they going to look me up on dating Web sites? Check out my
Facebook page? Now I'm going to be punished for being computer
literate."
Things that make ya go hmmm.
