Here's your sign....

Neighbors weren't crazy about the idea of a sex offender living next door. And, they didn't like the idea that he lived so close to a daycare center and school either.
But some parents said knowing a convicted sex offender lives nearby is scary.
"It's very upsetting that someone lives that close to you and even across the school. You never know," Dunn said.

On Tuesday morning, parents passed out pamphlets at a nearby school warning people about Sloan and claiming that laws prevent them from protecting their children.


So, what are a bunch of upset parents to do when the law says that their children aren't worth protecting? They give him his sign.

A group of Coopertown parents placed a large sign in front of the home a registered sex offender.

They want to warn people that 57-year-old Charles Sloan lives near a school and a daycare center.

Of course, there is always one person who thinks that just be cause legally his dept is paid, society should just forget what he did... cause pointing out his sexual assaults is just "tacky".

"I think the sign's very tacky," said Carolyn Ellis, a neighbor. "If it were me, if it were up in this yard, I would have it down in a heartbeat."

She said Sloan paid his debt to society and it's not fair to his mother who owns the house.


Perhaps next the neighbors should get to together, pitch in and get her her own special sign. I've already got one picked out that seems more than fitting for Ms. Ellis--------->

Orrin Hatch's push to strengthen the nation's sex-offender registries and clamp down on sex crimes. The Senate Judiciary Committee gave quick, unanimous approval to Hatch's bill Thursday, clearing its way for consideration by the full Senate. But Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass., said he plans to try to attach language to a bill that would require tougher sentences, provide federal assistance and offer grants to prosecute hate crimes - those motivated by hatred for a race, religion, gender or sexual orientation.

Boyfriends...

I sometimes wonder if certain men have some sort of animal DNA breed into them. The type of DNA or whatever it is that makes animals ritually preform certain actions. Like lions, when a male lion takes over a pride it'll often kill the offspring of the previous male, before mating with the female lions and creating cubs of it's own. I only wonder this, because it seems like there are an overwhelming number of men out there that end up killing the children of their girlfriends, not all of them do- but on a case by case comparison between girlfriends killing their boyfriends offspring and boyfriends doing it, it just seems that it's a lot more common amoung men. NOT THAT ALL OF THEM DO THIS... there are some great boyfriends/stepfathers out there that actually take care of kids as if they are their own... but then we have cases like Christopher Thunborg and Kashon Scott. Thunborg was babysitting his girlfriend's 11 month of baby in March when police say he caused ...
