It's like they're telling us that pedophiles can ONLY look like that. Haven't they thought about telling naive people that pedophiles can be decievingly handsome, young, and good-looking too? Because in my neighborhood, the police arrestted a yuppie living across the street from us because he was caught with violent kiddie porn on his computer, and he also had another history that we didn't know about-it totally caught us by surprise and I feel like a fool now for trusting him around my little sisters or any other child in the neighborhood.

Good question!!  I think it has something to do with the fact that we vilify the old, fat, and ugly in our society (think movies).  Nobody wants to watch a handsome vilian and hate him.

Many people confuse the term sex offender with pedophiles and rapists. There are many instances where this is not the case. These people are not threats to society and should not continue to be punished as such. \n\nAs far as "better safe than sorry"... what ever happened to "beyond the shadow of a doubt" that our legal system was based on? These people won't be crying that out when some kid accidently sees them naked thru the sliding glass window and they end up on the list.\n\nAnd then what is next? A list so we know if there are drug dealers in our neighborhood? People with Aids or Herpes? (I would like to know if the girl I just met has either... and it is my right to know, right?)\n\nThe List is Unconstitutional on the basis of Due Process of the Law. The list was created because they say that pedophiles (not all sex offenders, but pedophiles) have a likelihood of offending again. So they are on this list for a crime they MIGHT commit. They are given these restrictions as punishment for a crime they MAY or MAY NOT commit in the future? Is this Minority Report? \n\nElvis Presley was a sex offender.

Its people like the ones above who turn their backs on this sort of thing that cause little innocent kids to live for years as captives and sex slaves to perverts like xxXJOkerXxx..and LOUIS D....\nIt really doesn't matter if he is 'just joking' or not...the fact that he thinks that is actually funny...makes one wonder if he playing with a full deck so to speak.  \nHere is a INTERNET CRIME COMPLAINT CENTER WEBSITE FOR REPORTING THESE PEOPLE.....\nhttp://www.ic3.gov/\n\nAlso, here is the FBI crime tip website. you can submit anything and they will look into it....you CANNOT get in trouble for submitting a tip even if you don't know if it's valid or not so don't worry\n\nhttps://tips.fbi.gov/\n\n\nI suggest copying and pasting the web link to xXXJOKERXxx's sick posts and pasting them in the FBI tip email. Here is a link to xxxjokerxxx's yahoo answers page\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/my/profile;_ylt=Aqg95gvJ_VLfhk3W.d9L8Y8ezKIX?show=AA11611917\n\nI dont know if any of you watch crime shows like American Justice..etc. but an adult can go to jail just for soliciting sex from minors online ...that is a fact...and you can go to jail if you agree to meet a minor for sex...when you show up you get bombarded by FBI or police. So don't act like this guy can't get into serious trouble because he can....Just for posting that stuff and that is a fact.  \nalso, xxxjokerxxx has a yahoo screenname it is Kurtt314....I suggest getting on Yahoo Messenger and messaging him, get to know him and find out where he lives etc. and what hes into....

I know someone going through that right now. I think it's not that they are categorizing by "lesser" offenses... but the assumed potential for further action by an offender. They are playing a game of "possibility" and assumptions. I suppose that they assume given the chance all minor offenders will gradually escalate to some greater offense. Though, I could be wrong... but I think thats what they are thinking.

Well in case you don't know you can go to your states department of public safety and see all the sex offenders. Usually they have to tell their neighbors when they move in that they are, and usually if the parents are smart they will tell the kids to stay away from there. Many of them get out on parole and have to join the general population, so check it out and make sure your kids or you don't go over to there house.

I reported a man who kids use to come to my place of work and tell me mommy and daddy make us do all kinds of sexual things,it was all done in secrect,but,they took the kids away and the grandparents have custody and he got 7 months in prison,she was ordered to stay away from the kids!sometimes,speak up to help these poor children,I do,it breaks my heart!The police interviewed the children and both parents where taken in,I still don't understand why she didn't get any time coz she also has aids and probably gave it to her 2 kids!so sad!I pray for them every night!Young children don't know how to make these things up and that was enough to get him arrested and have the children taken away!

I wish the government would do something about this web site.  It is a breeding ground for sexual predictors upon young boys and girls.  If anyone has a niece, nephew, daughter, cousin, or whatever that is posting pictures and info on this web site they should warn them about how dangerous this site is.  I don't have it, and not many people know the dangers that lurk there.  Recently parents were asked to look on the web site in my area, and they were shocked!  Provocative poses from teens, location info, and many other things ready and available for any predator to lure a young girl or boy away from home.  There are reports every where about this site.  Use your search engine.  We need to take a stand and protect the future of this country... our children.  By the way I am not old, I am under 30, but I have a nephew, god son, and brother in law that are teens, and I am concerned about them!

"pedophiles click here" will get you lots of unwanted attention.  Um, for the record I'm joking...please don't use that....too many sick old men go trolling on myspace for young kids.

how do you KNOW he is a pedophile? my brother is schizophrenic and not a pedophile, but loves kids and would NEVER hurt one.\nif he has been released from jail for being a pedophile and you lived there first you should have been notified before he moved in.\nif he has been released from jail for being a pedophile and he lived there first you should have asked the agent (or land lord) if there are pedophiles living in the area.\nhas he been CONVICTED of being a pedophile or is this in your head or from neighbors talking?\npeople tend to be scared of the unknown.\n\ntell him strait up - i really don't like the way you look at me. what are you thinking when you see me?\nhe might surprise you with his answer. he might be thinking how beautiful the love between you and your daughter is. (and being that he probably doesn't have many friends - he wants that love, too; or wants to be a part of a love like that. i know my brother desperately wants a child of his own)

I agree. To me they are even scarier than rapists and murderers. That might sound extreme, but anyone who has children can probably relate to that sick feeling in their stomach they get when thinking about what sick things pedophiles out there are doing to children.

That is a bad, bad deal.  Get him out while you can.  I have a friend who was 22 and slept with a 16 year old (stupid, stupid, I know) and now he has to walk up to everyone in his neighborhood and tell them he is a sex offender, by law.  He is wearing the Scarlett Letter because he was "in love" and all that other bs he told us at the time.  Now he is effed for life.  Tell him to get out of it, whatever you do.  He is an actual child predator.

there are reports that ppl hav been like sexually abused and wut not but there are privacy settings that you can set so that only your friends can see your page and stuff.\n\n\nmostly its just parents being paranoid and scared that their "little darling" is gonna get messed with..... i think that the parents just need to trust us.

First, it's too bad they ever get out of jail.  Second, they do have sites on the internet you can check to see if a registered sex offender lives near you, but they are inherenlty flawed.  I don't think a  sign would work.  I do think that a real estate agent and local sherrif should tell the entire neighborhood as to what is happening though.

be careful with the little ones on this site dirty male 27 has just set up camp there known as conspiracy alert just thought the heads up on where he is at the moment might help try explaining in brief about this person and what he may be trying to do maybe i don't know kids these days are so strong minded though it's hard to pull them away once they dig there heels in

hmm good question.  Since it's not real children I'd wager a guess that it would have to be an already convicted pedophile to have it to be violating parole.\n\nPedophiles are the scum of the earth!

I've known a couple. Some I understand are very sucsessful so I don't think it has anything to do with sanity, it's more of a behavioral problem. They just have a total lack of respect or regard for anything or anyone. One that I knew robbed his neighbor, got arrested, bailed out by his uncle, then stole his uncle's car and wallet while he slept and after he was arrested again a day later he tried to say he just escaped from his kidnappers. I'm not kidding, this really happened. No fear of the consequences for his actions no matter what they were. Oh, and to top it off the guy tried to lie about who he was when the police had his ID. That may be the loudest alarm of all, LIES. Even when they know you know they are lying, they will still look you in the eye and lie some more. They just do not care. Lucky for me the only ties I had was that I knew who they were. The ones that are good at it are hard to pick out, but they always trip up and expose themselfs for who and what they really are. Today a word that might be used to describe one would be "Player".

i watched an episode of extreme makeovers home edition and there was a big thing about fingerprinting kids and having their picture taken every six months incase they go missing.the people in that town thought it was a great idea.if as an adult any kids get caught  doing criminal acts because of it then i'd say they deserve it.
