<snip> >Your thoughts and perspective, of course, is hoped for. If one of the purposes of incarceration is to protect the public from bad people then wouldn't it make more sense to simply petition for significantly longer prison sentences for sexual predators? And maybe for some state -and- federal laws that would bust up those predator "support networks" that help defend and finance people like Duncan? If the public doesn't want sexual predators roaming free (and they don't) then the public needs to 'encourage' the government to change the laws so the offenders will stay locked up. It doesn't do any good to chase them out of the neighborhood because they will just move to some other neighborhood. And it really doesn't matter where these offenders take up residence -- after all, Duncan didn't live anywhere near CdA. Address the crime, not the illusion that your neighborhood will be free from crime if you make the criminals live somewhere else. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- _______________________________________________ Libnw mailing list Libnw@immosys.com List info and subscriber options: http://immosys.com/mailman/listinfo/libnw Archives: http://immosys.com/mailman//pipermail/libnw
