2x the sex offense, now, get away from our town! Options

Even though, parents and communities are against having double and triple sex offenders living in their neighborhoods, it's pretty impossible to do anything about them without having congress pass a law. So basically, the law will state that multiple sex offenders will not be able to live within a certain footage of school grounds and wherever children are. However, do you all agree with this statment? Should sex offenders be banned from living near schools and "children infested" neighborhoods?

--- i think they should be closely monitored my the government, because since they've done it twice or three times already after they were convicted and put out of jail, what makes them think they won't do it again?

That depends on what you mean by a "sex offender". You mean a rapist? Or do you mean someone who had consensual homosexual relations? That was illegal in Texas and a few other states until last year.

"Sex offender" is way too broad of a category. I'd have a problem with rapists and kidnappers trafficking schools; I wouldn't have a problem with people who watch porn or homosexuals doing so.

We shoudl abolish all these sex offender shield laws that help corrupt our judicial system. If someone steals from you, kidnaps you, assaults you, etc., and you press charges, the defense has the right to confront you, and cross-examine you. But if you report a rape, in some states, you're immune from being cross-examined. That, in my opinion, allows for way too much abuse.
