I was doing research and the numbers and different sentences don't add up at all .
someone can molest 10 kids and he gets probation a man can be 2 points( meaning not by much) over the legal limit and to jail we go kinda funny ain't it?
Also i noticed that guys 18-23 who had sex with someone ages 14-17 and we know in some of these cases both were willing
the parents pressed charges But point being these men are being watched and the ones that harmed small chilren are not?

Some of the laws punishments are very stupid. If a child molester goes to prison more than likely that person is going to get killed by other inmates because no one tolerate people raping kids, etc. So most prisoner have a heart about children. They don't care if you killed an adult but if you messed with a kid they are going to do something about it.

Although I do agree that the penalties for child molestation need to be much, much higher, I do not want to see the penalties for drunk driving reduced. Drunk drivers cause so many highway accidents that result in tragedy, it's just terrifying.
Personally, I think a 23 year old who has sex with a 14 year old IS a pedophile and should be treated accordingly.

I think there are more child molesters in the law than anything else. They are keeping the punishment low just in case they get caught.
