We should not need a sex offenders register. As far as I'm concerned anyone who has committed a sexual offence, where force or coercion are used, should be removed from society permanently.

I really don't give a damn if this is by their elimination from the human race, or by throwing away the key, but it should be permanent.

I also think that when there is a repeat offence by a convicted offender, the judge who gave a lenient sentence, or the members of a parole board who let the offender out, should receive the same sentence, life behind bars.

Hi there HASBEEN...

I've often described you as the most pragmatic individual on OLO or the Forum, and again you've proved me right, with your commonsense attitudes and your perspective on crime. That said my friend you'll probably never receive an invitation from either the far 'Left' or the Greens, to provide a keynote address on the benefits of egalitarianism. Nor would I, I suspect.

I agree with the author, Jardine K J and others who can see the problems.
