Sex Offenders Tent City: Georgia Law creates own state hazard

NO national public case has been solved due to the rgistery. It didnt save Jaycee Dugard, Jessica Lunsford, or Sarah Lunde. Not a single national story case has ever been solved using the list. NOT ONE! I reitarate, the laws designed to protect kids has ruined hundreds of thousands of kids lives all over this country by having them register directly or having thier parents register. 90-95% of the almost 700,000 registrants arent a threat to society at all. Yet they all face the residency laws equally. States could differentiate but they dont. So hundreds of thousands of kids lives are ruined. I ask again; Where is the justice in that? A study by a California newspaper of nearly five hundred released sex offenders who legally resided near schools and day care facilities found that only one was rearrested during the one year period of the study, and that was on a charge of parole violation and not for another sexual assault.10 A Minnesota Department of Corrections study found that only two recidivist acts of child sexual assault were committed in parks on unknown victims and in those two instances the assaults occurred several miles away from the offenders’ homes. 90-95% of sex offenders as defined by law are not predators. YOU have no idea how how easy it is to get on the list. For those that think recidivism is high among sex offenders this comes straight from a Kentucky district court...Many studies have shown that relatives, friends, baby-sitters, teachers and others in positions of authority over a child are far more likely than strangers to commit sexual. Another study found that no more than 10% of child molestations are committed by strangers to the victims.6 A 2003 Department of Justice study found that only 7% of incarcerated child sex offenders in prison in 1997 were there for crimes where the victim and assailant were strangers. Additionally as defendants point out, a 1997 report from the Department of Justice indicated that only 3% of sexual assaults against children under 12 years old were perpetrated by strangers as were only 11% of sexual assaults against children 13 to 17 years old. Likewise a 2000 report from the same agency indicated that as to victims 5 years old or younger, only 3.1% of the crimes were committed by strangers and as to children age 6-11, only 4.7%.   Straight from the mouth of the FBI.

The average number of kids are taken or victimized by strangers is only in that 150 range a year most of the thousands of victiimizations that take place are actually by family memebers or friends of the family...."These laws protect NO ONE!! 150 out of thousands thats a pretty small percentage. Spend these millions, we spend on tracking NON dangerous people, educating kids and families how to protect themselves from the REAL dangers. These laws protect NO ONE are ineefective and do more harm than good.
