Comments: You need to check the stats! Unfortunately there are lots of people spouting hearsay and mythology concerning "sex offenders". The statistical truth is "sex offenders" return to prison only 5% of the time for another sexually motivated conviction! I should also make mention that 97% of all sex crime is committed not by a stranger but rather by a friend or family member of the victim (within the victim's own residence without any relevance to the proximity of a school, park, daycare, bus stop,etc.) It is all a politically motivated "stranger Danger Hysteria" fueled by a few high profile (terribly tragic) cases (Waish, Wetterling, Lunsford, Duggard, etc.).
