I understand your views, but my son was molested & his attacker is now attending B.S.U. while in prison -ON OUR DIME! I’m a single mother trying to go to college and wondering how I’m going to pay for my kids to attend also. Why not bring back the old fashion training…license plates, digging… Prison is a place of punishment why not treat it that way? Knowledge is power people & our tax dollars are going to empower the minds of the very people that destroyed our childrens!
99.9% reoffend (This came from our prosecutor, and the attorney general working the appeals case…just in case someone is curious) so why not use the funds for the children that were victims? Let them know there’s more out there than the dark world they’ve encountered!

Sorry, back to the topic.

The very idea that you can be “entrapped” into soliciting children is ludicrous. People like Ms Johnson are a big part of the problem. I wonder what it must be like to live life as a child molester apologist?

I still think we should ban them from the city via expanding the restrictive zones around schools and parks. Until the legal system starts locking these scum up for good it’s every community for themselves…

JQ,

“Either this country will become Chinaâ€™s financial whore or you will see your taxes explode. Of course once we become Chinaâ€™s whore the return a normal life will more then likely gone.”

Are we not already “China’s financial whore”? Or did I miss the signing ceremony where we paid back the $520 BILLION we owe them? All in the name of “free trade”…

I like the concept of letting felons earn degrees in prison: it’s a productive use of their time, college is actually cheaper than prison, and hopefully they can use their degree to obtain gainful employment rather than be a burden on the state.

But let’s apply some common sense:
1. There is no point in letting death row inmates and lifers earn degrees.
2. A terrorist in prison should not be allowed to obtain a degree in nuclear physics.
3. Sex offenders should not be allowed early release because of this program. I think that this program should be more geared toward finanicially motivated criminals. They need to learn that it is easier to work for a living than it is to hide from the police.

Robert, I know that and I find that unacceptable. We give them a free ride on our dime while those who play by the rules, pay their taxes everyday, and are middle class get the shaft.

Robert, you have not seen anything yet…. Wait until you find what your tax dollars will be going to in a couple of years….

Either this country will become China’s financial whore or you will see your taxes explode. Of course once we become China’s whore the return a normal life will more then likely gone.

I know this sounds like crazy talk but print this out and let me know in four years!

JQ,
Prison inmates, including child molesters, already can pursue college degrees via correspondence while still behind bars. In fact they get extra good time credit if they get a degree.

That sounds like a Bill Ayres line of crap. Of course he and Obama share the same belief that we should send these guys to school after they get out so they have their BS degree on our dime.

Does someone have a bucket, I feel sick!

you’re such an idiot. but since you have so much trust in law enforcement stats, check out the u.s. department of justice’s tracking of sex offender recidivism because it certainly contradicts your inbred thinking. by the way… i’m not a sex offender nor do ipersonally know any. not a liberal either. just an average joe who is tired of hearing people spew out “facts” they can’t back up. what studies do you refer to? what organization performed them? why not post their actual findings on your site? you try to project an image of yourself here but you’re just a semi-educated good ole boy who cannot construct an argument using fundamental logic whose comments lack any insight. my guess would be that at least kaitlyn’s iq is higher than her shoe size, which is more than can said of you.
