Stupid: Passing laws that create these sort of zones. If you are that scared of an offender reoffending, do me a favor -- change the Constitution so that you can keep them in jail forever. Surely that could get the requisite number of states to vote for it? But until then, use a little common sense in creating these forever-punishing sex offender registries.
I could go out and
kill
a kid and have fewer restrictions on me when I get out of prison, than if the kid sees me fapping in my bedroom because they were looking over my fence.

The payback provision didn't work very well last year, however. The Correction Department reports $191,158 was spent on the program statewide in 2011, but only about $300 was repaid.
Gee, let's think about this here: you create a horrible series of worthless rules that discriminate most of these people firmly into the "Couldn't work at McDonald's if they paid the company each hour instead of vice versa." and keep them of the boogieman lists forever, driving most of them without the program into homelessness in other states, they you're surprised when they become criminal homeless and ratchet UP the stupid rules to make it ever HARDER for them to rejoin society like that will DECREASE the amount of repeat offenses and yet you're a hypocrite because if I said "Let's just issue writs of outlawry." (a more humane option in any book) you'd call me some kind of lunatic with a hard on for medieval England and the rack, whip, and red hot pokers at the tower of London. (not true, kinda)
So the moral of the story is that people are stupid and the American legal system is the backed up toilet where they've been dumping their stupidity and ignorance for years and years and years.

Not to mention the fact that since there's nowhere for them to stay, there's no way for them to have a permanent address as required by the terms of parole/probation; and thus no way to monitor exactly where they are and no way for those who want to comply to actually comply.
And I'll throw in here the stupidity of the "If they know they're sick they should get treatment" argument with the counter that therapists are mandated reporters, and any sex offender who goes to a therapist before his/her arrest trying to get help and admits to molesting kids essentially puts himself in jail because the therapist must BY LAW tell the cops--and nobody is going to go get help under those circumstances.

Nice.
They did the same thing around here, except it was 2000 feet, (or was it yards, I forget). anyways, now the only places they can live are isolated hotels outside of town or quiet little acreages out in the boonies.
Which is perfectly fine, since they can't drive and pick up victims and bring them to where no one will hear them scream, or in the case of hotels, help hold them down.
/them damned unintended consequences.

I would never side with child molesters, but as a side note, can we get some child free zones in places? I'd rather live next door to the sex offender than children. I guess it depends on what the sex offense was of course :P, but most likely they wouldn't bother me however a child will.

It really does not help that public urinators, mooners, MILF's that scored with the 16 year old neighbor, and men that didn't check the ID well enough at the bar are listed with real sick puppies and rapists on your local sex offender map.

Right now, I really despise the child-centered, reactionary whiners who invented this arbitrary "residency requirement" bullsheet for all "registered sex offenders."
Come up with something better. Smarter. Yes, smarter.
For example, be more particular in who you want to shun. Society can't financially afford the system we've got now. Raping 9-year-olds should be a shunnable offense. Molesting hospital patients should be a shunnable offense.
Waving your weenie at your girlfriend should NOT.

Which makes it completely useless.
If I look at the sex offender list for this state it lists the persons age when they committed the crime, and the age of the victim. As far as the crime they committed, it's really vague, such as "child endangerment", which covers all kinds of things both sexual, non-sexual, violent and non-violent. Even "sexual assault" has some weird provisions, which means the person didn't necessarily rape or molest someone, which is what people assume when they see "sexual assault".
So, the reactionary idiots will look at the list and be outraged because they think they live around a bunch of rapists and child molesters, which inevitability ends up getting some benign "offender" harassed to the point they have to move, or worse. Employers will see this person on there and be afraid to hire them, or even if they do get hired, what about when a bunch of neighbors call the employer outraged (since it does list their place of employment), and the employer just doesn't wanna deal with the flack, even if he has no problem with the employee personally.
And the list also should have a time limit. Why should people that were charged with a crime in 1982 or something, be on there if they have not committed any crimes whatsoever for 30 years? Do we just let the list fill up with people that have turned their lives around and are no longer a threat? If the person is considered such a threat that he must be deemed a "sex offender" for life, why have they been released into the public? In these cases, why can't the cops simply check up on them privately periodically and make sure they're accounted for, rather than them being publicly shunned for life and unable to find a job or contribute to society?

Since when have hypocritical, dishonest intentions or poorly reasoned consequences prevented a legislature from enacting a law?
Honestly though, it's because you get a one-time boost by being retroactively tough on crime, (and maybe another when you add more rules to the list of things sex offenders can't do) and because it's hard to get judges to sentence people to lifetime punishment for things less grave than murder and the like, so it's easier to apply such punishments administratively rather than judicially.

I'm with you up until the last sentence. This whole "sex offender registry for life because of public urination/private masturbation/college streaking" is a strawman. Look up the sex offender registry near your area. Virtually all of them are there for having sex with minors, with about 20% of their victims being younger than 12. There have been one or two examples in the history of the nation where someone was put on the sex offender registry for a minor offense, and it was immediately noted and corrected every time.

Please post your neighborhood. I don't need your address; a general city and region will do. Are you on the northeast side of Dayton? South Central LA? I'd genuinely be interested in seeing your local sex offender registry. When I looked at mine last year, out of the 20 people closest to me, 14 of them were there for rape of a teenager, and the other 6 for molestation/sodomy of a child younger than 12. I just didn't see anything vague.
Oh, and in case he sees this: "Paging
