Jessica's Law
What are people's feelings about this proposed law?

Should it be federal, or kept at the state level?

Is it too harsh, or not harsh enough?

Thoughts?

I'm against the 25 years part - but the lifetime monitoring is okay.

I don't think the years in prison is going to do anything - and I don't think we should support them for 25 years.

Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

Bigotry is a social disease.

Legalized same-sex marriage almost certainly benefits those same-sex couples who choose to marry, as well as the children being raised in those homes. - David Blankenhorn is president of the New York-based Institute for American Values and the author of "The Future of Marriage."

Truthfully, I think that the law is too lenient. Since child predators have the highest recitivism rate, and futher that many psychologists state that there is no real cure, then the sentence should also include castration to prevent the individuals from repeating their crimes once they are released. Since this will never fly, then the only solution is to incarcerate for longer periods of times.

They say that you can judge a society by how it treats its prisoners. What does it say about a society that coddles sexual predators toward children, when its prisoners will rape and sodomize and abuse said individuals. It seems to me that the prisoners themselves no better with how to deal with these sick bastards than the justice system.

Conservatism, I repeat is not an ideology. It does not breed fanatics....But if you want men who seek, reasonably and prudently, to reconcile the best in wisdom of our ancestors with the change which is essential to a vigorous civil social existence, then you will do well to turn to conservative principles

Paedophiles should be executed end of story.

Castration does nothing. It may stop them using their penis to violate the child it does not stop them using other things. It does not take the desire or thought away.
