This kid was TWELVE years old when he was playing with children…..I knew “they” punished adults 4 THE REST OF THEIR LIVES….even after serving their full sentences and “paying their debt to Society……” Why don’t “they” just KILL THEM so they….the perpetrators of the crime” don’t have to suffer the humiliation, degradation and downright ABUSE of SOCIETY that will haunt them for the rest of their lives….their CHILDRENS lives….some of whom have comitted SUICIDE because of the “sins of their fathers….”
It would have been BETTER if he had just MURDERED somebody….that’s a crime that they can “get past.” Subjecting people to ETERNAL PUNISHMENT….will just eat away at them until they “go Postal” and pull an “Aurora” type of crime…..is THAT what people WANT???
The real problem with the Political climate nowadays is “they” have “enhanced” the Laws soooo far that in many cases, “sexual assault” can even include urinating in public behind a tree and some kid walks around the corner and says: “Oh look Mommy….look at his peepee!!!” And he becomes ostricized FOR LIFE…………forced to do time with real criminals and when he finally gets out….can’t get a job…has to wear an ankle braclet for the rest of his life…..used to be an old saying: “If ya can’t do the time…don’t do the crime….” Nowadays it’s….”If ya can’t do the time (& you have to take a leak) WET YOUR PANTS(?)”
The World is going waaaayy too far on this “Witch Hunt.” The rate of recidivism on these cases is EXTREMELY LOW, too……..
Yes I did the crime and now I am paying for it and I regret it badly I wish I would of killed myself after I did what I did but you guys who judge me god will judge you I have asked for forgiveness with him now God lives in me I have been forgive.
Oh and what do you guys say when I say that I was molested and raped when I was 5 and 6 years old and when I grew into puberty I did what was taught to me when I was a baby myself so don’t be so damn judgmental towards all of the sex offenders I am not making an excuse for what I did I am paying for it everyday of my life most of my family has turned against me and I can’t ever find a job because of my record. I went through treatment center after treatment center for 11 years cause none of my family wanted me at that time.
