High School and Middle School students living in the area are advised to REMAIN AT HOME until further notice THIS IS TERRIFYING. This was my little boy's school until January when we had him transferred...what's worse is this school is only 8 BLOCKS FROM MY HOUSE. My boys get on the bus right here in our driveway, and I drive my daughter (because of a level 3 sex offender that moved in just 4 blocks from us!! ) WTF?!?! We do not live in the gawddang inner freaking city or down on Broadway...this is suburbia, with kids in every other house...PTA moms, Girl Scouts, crap like that. WHERE IS SAFE?!? I'm moving my family to a 100 acre farm in the middle of nowhere... But for this morning, I am keeping my kids inside away from the windows and the doors locked. I'm calling my husband, and hoping the Army Rangers sticker in the window of my Suburban will be some kind of deterrent...~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

ACMESkydiver 0 #7 March 14, 2005 QuoteCan you call the authorities and find out what is happening? That was a good idea, Turtle...I called the non-emergency line, they said what info is out is on the news, and the situation is being 'contained'. I checked the news channel, they said more schools around us are being closed...apparently it is some kind of police stand-off...they have someone trapped and barricaded in a house or area, and it is still dangerous. Will keep watching, they said that buses may not be available. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sum1mom 0 #13 March 14, 2005 You can go here: http://records.txdps.state.tx.us/ Just go to the sex offender link and type in your city and zipcode, and it'll list the offenders in your area. You'll see complete names addresses and the offenses. I found there is one right around the corner from me. They are everywhere. What is a level 3?

I also don't know what the limitations on proximity to a school would be, but the Junior High is 1/8th mile from us (the end of our street is the junior high's sports field ), and the elementary school is on the other side of that. Sex offenders should be allowed to live in a free environment any way they choose...in the middle of all the OTHER sex offenders. They should be the ones that are freaking scared to walk down the sidewalk, not us. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

ACMESkydiver 0 #16 March 14, 2005 Is that Texas? Anyhoo, I'm not sure about a level 3, but I believe I remember it was a statatory rape situation...and whereas I wouldn't be so freaked out if it was a 19 year old boy with his 17 year old girlfriend and the parents freaked and charged him with rape, I think the situation was similar but there was a bigger gap in age...a much bigger gap. Edited to add: I think Texas deals with sex offenders differently than Washington. We have to worry about the asshole's 'feelings' here. ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sum1mom 0 #17 March 14, 2005 crap, I glanced at your profile and thought you were from TX. I see at the Washington site, that they do only show the blocks, but a good clean photo is there, with their last name and everything. Can you locate him in the white pages? I tried it on one of the listings and it worked. I even found a phone number!! Oh, and just in case, here: http://www.waspc.org/wa_sex/index.shtml It's good to know which house to look out for, as well as a photo. I saw the offender near me, and he looks like a regular-everyday guy. Good tool to use, to point out for your kiddos that these freaks aren't always scary looking...they could be just anybody.

wmw999 2,343 #18 March 14, 2005 It sucks that you can't make the world a completely safe place for your kids. But no parent has ever been able to do that. It's got to be worse when the kids aren't necessarily equipped to deal with the real world in the long run, either physically or mentally.

PhreeZone 15 #20 March 14, 2005 Harassment of a person is illegal. The person that moved in has followed the law because he has served his time in prison, he has notifed the local community of his status and I'm quite sure he is on probation with monitoring. Restictions are only on how close he can live to a school or other public place like playgrounds. He did not get moved there to spite the neighborhood, but he probally moved there because that was an area that he could afford to live in. Next time some one gets a DUI go picket out in front of their house since they are probally more dangerous then a lot of the people with sex crimes convictions.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,343 #22 March 14, 2005 He's not defending the sex abuser, he's condemning harrassment and threats. Big difference. True sex offenders are some of the most likely to repeat; apparently there is a strong physical drive, just as some people have strong sex drives vs. weak ones. They have an unfair burden to carry; that doesn't mean that we should have to suffer for it. But we should work within the law to keep people safe, and not simply vent rage at the system on someone who might be trying their damdest to go straight.

The person that moved in has followed the law because he has served his time in prison, he has notifed the local community of his status and I'm quite sure he is on probation with monitoring. Do you know how many probation officers are assigned per client? Tell me you honestly believe that the probation officers know where every one of their clients are and what they are doing. What if people gather on a public street in front of the person's house. Just sat there quiet, just to let the offender know he/she is being watched. Served his time? Well goody for him. What about the victim? They will serve time for the rest of their lives for what happened to them. I say the offender suffers for as long as the victim of the crime has to suffer. QuoteRestictions are only on how close he can live to a school or other public place like playgrounds. He did not get moved there to spite the neighborhood, but he probally moved there because that was an area that he could afford to live in. I believe the offender was moved from a place that didn't charge for room or board. I say let them stay there. QuoteNext time some one gets a DUI go picket out in front of their house since they are probally more dangerous then a lot of the people with sex crimes convictions. In a heartbeat I'd be out front of a person's house that did that. IMO, they too should be locked up and not released. I hate how the system works Most times a DUI will get a good lawyer and get them off with just a slap on the wrist. I say no second chance.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.
