Ohio officials are thinking way too far “Outside the Box”
A controversial bill to require sex offenders to display neon green license plates is making waves between Ohio lawmakers and law enforcement officials, MyFoxCleveland.com reports.
Prosecutors, sheriffs and police chiefs oppose Kristen’s Law, named for 14-year-old Kristen Jackson, who in 2002 was lured from a fair by a paroled sex offender, murdered and her body dismembered.
They say the perpetrators are smart enough to find other ways to corner their victims and fear the plates will cause vandalism and harassment against the offenders, as well as road rage and traffic hazards.
Why not just eliminate the problem of identifying sex offender’s vehicles by not giving them licenses to drive because they’re locked up for life?
That is “Inside the Box” thinking. Keeping the sex offenders “Inside” the box they cannot be trusted out of.

Why lock them up for life? What is wrong with a dull needle or a short rope and a tall tree? If they can’t be trusted in society they should be removed from the gene pool.
I just have a problem with the government having the power to take away life. Sometimes I get over it, but “in theory” and in the quantity we’d have to do it in to get rid of all the pervs, I’d much rather just give them an island.
