The 1,000-foot rule

OK, show of hands. How many rights do you think a child molester should have?

"He is a convicted child molester whose frequency of attendance and atypical behavior while in the park justified the concern of those public officials charged with ensuring the safety of members of the public who visit the recreational site," the judges said.
The Indianapolis ordinance, passed in May, prohibits sex offenders from coming within 1,000 feet of parks, playgrounds or pools when children are present. The ACLU sued in that case as well, contending that the city's configuration of streets and highways makes it impossible to traverse Indianapolis without violating the law.
Child molesters might have trouble traversing Indianapolis? Sorry, can't work up much outrage.

this is what is wrong with this country-rights for child molesters?? They already get barely punished for their sickening behavior. Today a man had sex with a 14 year old he met on the internet. He got a year in jail which he had already served waiting trial so he is out now. Half the time they just get probation. ACLU has went overboard and now so called victims have taken rights to extremes. In that they have them and no one else does!!
