I 100% support your un-sexy issue. It bothers me that those who are unlikely to repeat offend are lumped in with the rest AND that somehow what ALL sex offenders do, that lump group, is punished for life to an extent that can leave them homeless and in many ways more dangerous than they would have been otherwise.
A bit garbled, but in essence I like! Would you mind keeping me posted?
