You bet they are! There are more and more people added to the registry every day, and many don't belong there because they're no real threat to anyone. Politicians and the media have got the public believing that there are predators hiding behind every bush when, in fact, children are far more likely to be sexually abused in their own homes. Also, the term "sex offender" is NOT synonymous with "predator" or "pedophile" or "child molester," although the way registries are set up and the way our politicians talk, it's no wonder so many naive people think so. Finally, treatment actually does work for many low-risk offenders. It's just not cost-effective for states to remove people from the registries as our government pays them for each offender on the list.

Yes. They always use other people to get votes. Like Immigration, Sex Offenders, Meth Cookers, the list is endless. Just look at Mark Foley, he is a hypocrite who was saying he's against all this, and he's been hitting on young kids for apparently awhile now.

Yeah the government is using lots of people and things to try to gain votes. Once the elections are over the gas prices will go back up too.

I think that's been going on for a long time.
Watch gas prices start to go up to 3$ a gallon when the election is over. The only reason they have dropped is so the republicans can try to stay in office.

Absolutely!
Anyone who thinks these stupid laws are for the general good, does not understand what politics have become.

yes and I aggree with Neptune.
Also these bad things NEED to happen in order to get people to "THINK" and do something about the issues rather than let them sit.
They should let Foley go.
