They are both victims. They are both attacked. They are both sexually
assaulted. Did you even read the rest of the post that you snipped? As a
parent how am I to know which of the neighbors is a pedophile? How am I to
know if the guy who dates my daughter is going to drug and rape her? How
can I protect them from an enemy I can't see? One way is to have a registry
where I can see if they have ever been convicted of a serious sexual
offense. While it doesn't help in every situation since not all sex
offenders get caught at least it gives parents a fighting chance. Or would
you rather they were released in complete anonymity to harm someone again?
