Not all sex offenders require same treatment

[Nova]

My girlfriend's daughter went off to college this year. Lovely, bright gal.

She was at a party, had a few drinks and was walking home. She had to pee and went behind a bush. Whoops. Arrested and once convicted will be required to register as a sex offender.

That is AWFUL, Jbean! I was about to post similar cases from 30 years ago, but I thought, "Oh, surely, they're not doing that any more!" Obviously, they are.

Of course, this is most unfair to your daughter. But in the long run it hurts all of us because the label "sexual predator" will come to mean nothing.
