Do you know that pimps and prostitutes can be considered sex offenders? Do you know that men who buy sex from prostitutes can also be put on the registry?
I know of one man who I worked with doing free phones that was charged (as a first offender) because at one time during his "using" days he was picked up by a mother of a teenage daughter (he was homeless). She got him drunk and high and then left him to watch her teenage daughter who had accused another boyfriend of her mother's of rape. She was a fast teenager and came into the room improperly dressed and came on to him. He did not know about the conflicts going on between mother and daughter and succumbed while drunk and high. She asked him to cover for her for something with her mother and he refused. So she hollered rape again. He was charged with Statutory rape. While he was incarcerated Georgia changed the registry laws so they decided to change his charge to child molestation. (so they could try and keep him on the registry longer). The judge never removed his first offender status, though. It is the only charge he has ever been charged within his life. Within a few years, probation removed all of his conditions, (being close to schools, etc). He can live wherever he wants. He has successfully discharged his probation. In a couple more years he can ask the judge to take him completely off the registry. Under your presumptions, you think he should not be able to rent an apartment or be near a school. What if he had a child that needed to be picked up from school? Under your presumptions, he should not be able to pick up his child from school. But the probation department said he was not a predator. He can not take his kids to the carnival or Disneyland. (He doesn't have small kids so he doesn't have to worry about this) but if he did? FYI he has been clean and sober now for about 10 years. He doesn't go anywhere but to work and home. He doesn't have friends, he doesn't hang out. He will barely go out to eat. When he goes somewhere and someone comes in with a bunch of kids, he's ready to get up and leave.
I just think that labeling the entire group as predators is wrong. Probation doesn't even do this. I'm not saying that being aware is wrong. I'm just saying that I think you should remember that people are individuals and people make mistakes. It doesn't always make them a predator. Do you think that the girl who flashed her chest should be labeled a predator? I wonder how many women at spring break have done this? (I've never been to an event so I don't even know, but judging from the tv It's probably a lot!) From what I understand in New Orleans at Mardi Gras it's also legal. But this same action in another place is considered indecent exposure. In Los Vegas prostitution is legal.
There are jobs that some shoppers are ok with. There are other shops that other shoppers don't want to do. But slamming the MSP for even offering the job like it's such a terrible thing is just crazy. I'll do the OSI at the hotel and you can stand on your feet for 8 hours demonstrating (giving free samples) or do a sizing audit. I can't stand for 8 hours and won't even consider the job. (Just look at the title given to this post!)
There are things I'm scared of but going to a public place to do a job is not one of them. (Unless it's a really bad gas station with gang bangers hanging out and known for shootings). Would you say that all alcoholics should lose their driver's license because some of them drove drunk and killed someone in an accident? So what about the drunk driver who gets out of prison and doesn't drink anymore? Should they lose their license for life?
I think some of the preceding statements were really hateful against an entire group and not against the evil in the individual predators. (Speaking of Evil) Anyone who kills a child intentionally either as a predator or the mother who drove her kids into the lake should be locked up and NEVER EVER be set free! Anyone who cracks the skull of a newborn baby should be locked up. I have no comprehension for child hurters like this. ( I am a mother too.) But I know that most parents won't do this and I don't label all parents as dangerous because of the actions of a few.
