Why do s*x offenders have to sign a register?

Question

What's the point in them signing it? Why can't we just put them on it ourselves? I don't see what it has to do with them.

Answer 1

For their own protection and they ******* need it.

Answer 2

s*x offenders must comply with the requirements of the Child Protection Register which is run by the police.  They are required to regularly report to police with their address and notify them of any work they undertake.

What you're proposing will lead to vigilante attacks and may aggravate a s*x offender to reoffend...to be honest with you, I couldn't care less if I saw a paedophile getting the c**p kicked out of him...but the law is the law.

Thankfully these days, victims are more likely to come forward to report the crimes.

Paedophiles don't believe they're hurting children, they believe they're loving children.  They don't have any understanding of the damage sexual assault causes to their psychological wellbeing.

Paedophiles may spend years putting themselves in positions where they have access to children egs  coaching sport teams, taking positions at local swimming pools.  They try to befriend their victims by gaining their trust and affection, which makes the victim less likely to tell someone what's going on.  Attacks in schools are also disturbingly commonplace.  Sexual assault is about power and control, which is why children are particularly vulnerable.

Child killer John Lewthwaite is fitted with a bracelet as part of his new parole conditions.  The bracelet is fitted with an electronic satellite tracking device that can monitor him 24 hours a day.  It must be worn all the time, even in the shower.  The bracelet is monitored via a satellite that sends electronic signals to Telstra towers and then to a control centre manned by Corrective Services.  It can track his every move when he leaves his house, including if he tries to enter an exclusion zone.  If found entering an exclusion zone, the bracelet sends alarm signals to those monitoring Lewthwaite's movements.

Answer 3

if I had my way they would not be able to sign anything  

Answer 4

I don't think they should be let out in the first place let alone sign a register oooh alot of good that will do  

Answer 5

The register is a legal document  containing a number of rules the offender has to agree with. Number one on the list is informing the police where he intends to live he must also inform the police if he intends to leave the country and which countries he intends to visit he must also agree to part in any medical treatment/therapy. He can also ask to be chemically castrated which would be the best thing for them

Answer 6

In most states, s*x offenders do not have to "sign a register."  Instead, when a s*x offender moves into a community he is required to register with local law enforcement, so that the cops know where the s*x offender lives.  There is not some big book that they come in an sign.  

Answer 7

they have to sign it and consent to being monitored like signing a contract so they cant sue the government for putting them on it without permission (p.s is this because of garry glitter? he has been in the news allot and i think he should be put in prison for the rest of his life)

Answer 8

There is no point to it really, whats a register gonna do...i think they should all be put on an island with nothing and left to rot....or they should be subjected to human testing for cancer etc and then killed at the end of it.... i think its disgusting that they sign a register and then get re housed in front of a school...ggrrrrr  

Answer 9

They don't have to sign it. They can go to prison instead.

The point is that those who don't sign when they are released from prison or move location are at risk of arrest so it is to their advantage for them to sign it.

Answer 10

because they are filthy scumbags that hurt people and need to put to as much shame as possible !
