i am glad to see that some people are finally realizing you cannot judge a person just by them being on the registry. is the purpose of prison time the same for every person convicted of a crime???and is that purpose not for punishment by loss of freedom and financial loss,but also for rehabilatation??? if they are going to have the registry, they need to also put more detail on the supposed "crime" i have heard of too many cases of an 18 yr old having a relationship with a younger person (or something similar)and all is well till someone gets pissed off and presses charges.its not the same thing,people!!! be aware,stay informed, watch your kids,but dont jump to conclusions.
