Mail I Don't Like!

No, I'm not talking about bills - although, I don't like those either!

Today we received a notice from the Kitsap County Sheriff's Office notifying us that a Level 3 sex offender, convicted of assaulting children, has moved in down the street. They even state that he is at high risk for re-offending.

As a mother and as a woman, this bristles me. I mean big time, BRISTLES! I'm sorry if I offend anyone - but if you're convicted of child molestation (and you're not an 18 year getting busted for knocking up your 16 about to be 17 year old girlfriend) merely being put behind bars for a few months or years isn't enough. When is this country going to wake up and do something about it? How come the sentence for first time sex crimes is on par with smoking pot?

Would someone please tell me how come Martha Stewart had to wear an ankle alarm and this guy doesn't??? Um, if you're considered high risk for molesting a child again, you should be supervised 24/7 as you are still sick and can harm others, just like anyone placed in a psychiatric home.

I am so upset right now. At least he's not moving in across the street from me, but he's still moving across or next to someone else who more than likely has children or grandchildren!
