it doesn't make since to me

All these stories on the news lately about child molesters and murderers has really got me thinking about what a B.S. legal system we have. They give drug dealers more time in prison and higher bonds in jail than they do molesters and murderers. What is wrong with this picture? The court systems need to start making examples out of these sick monsters and maybe some of them would think twice about acting out their disgusting fantasies by hurting some innocent child. Instead they can  ruin a childs life and half the time all they get is probabtion and are still free to prey on other children. I don't agree with people selling drugs but the fact is their is always gonna be crackheads out here and there is always gonna be someone willing to make the drug and sell it. Is getting these people off the streets more important than protecting our children?

I do agree we need to be tougher on these predators, but I also agree about the register showing the age of vicitm and perp because I work in the system and ahve seen so many 17-18 year old boys lives ruined because they had consensual sex with their 15 year old girlfriend (yes, I know 15 year olds should not be having sex) And the parents ALLOW them to date, but when they find out they have slept together the parents press charges for statutory rape, and on the register you don't see that. and by the way if the girl is 16 he canNOT be charged, The laws are for 15 and under when it is consensual. Now that does not apply to teachers, there is a special statute that even if the student is 17 or 18 it is illegal. but the others apply to 15 and under.

"That registry is deeply flawed."

Very true elcid. The actual regustry needs to detail age of victim and age of molester. So that if an 18 yr old boy gets caought with his 16 yr gf of 4 years he's not classified the same as a 40 somthing with a 12 yr old.

In the words of Ron White, we need to open a drive through for the exection of these monsters.

I never quite understood the comparisons myself. A violent act recieves little to no time while a person peddling pot on the street recieves years in prison. Boggles the mind.

The statutes themselves don't help the matter at all, as they are quite often deceptively labeled.

My personal favorite example of this is §14‑190.17A - Third Degree sexual exploitation of a minor.

On face, it gives the impression to the average reader that there was an actual victimization of a child, when in fact the statutes criminalizes the possession of images of child pornography, even images such as cartoons which do not depict an actual living child. The statute in effect allows for the criminalization of thoughts.

We've drastically overreached.

That is true elcid.

"Check out the NC sex offender registry. It's scary the types of people that have several convictions and got just probation."

It's important to also look up the applicable statute for each offender and educate yourself as to what it actually entails. That registry is deeply flawed.

What they don't understand is that there are always going to be someone wanting to make some "easy" money by either selling drugs or embezzling. There are always people willing to take someones place once they are gone i.e. locked up. Once some pervert molests a child they take something from that child that they will never be able to get back and they will always want to hurt more children. Lock them up and throw away the key. Our children are our most precious gifts, a gift from God and they should be treated as such. I'm tired of these people and they should not be breathing the same air as the children they once hurt

heck drug dealers get more time than those who hurt children.

all child molestors need to be dropped off an a deserted island, let them be pervers with each other and survive on their own, dont give them any comforts or food or water, let them make their own way

Check out the NC sex offender registry. It's scary the types of people that have several convictions and got just probation.
