I'm not creating anything.
The Wheel has been around for ages.
Prisoner abuse of pedophiles is a well-documented fact.
As are incredible prison recidivism rates and the proven statistic of sex crim perpetrators having a very hard to adjusting to a society once they are released.
Just because the prison system is a fethed up mess that doesn't work in either concept or execution doesn't mean you should laugh and point at people in it.
What's that Shuma? That sounds like child-rapist-sympathizer talk to me!
I dislike it immensely when people get riled up and damn people that they've never met. That could very well not even exist. For crimes that they have no real involvement with and in most cases no actual meaningful knowledge about.
This may sound like I'm high horsing again but seriously. Get your jollies somewhere else, this isn't fething news. There are a dozen wars going on, the economy is in shambles, there are 20 countries I can list off the top of my head that institutionalize abuses of woman and childrens rights. Stop shouting over an ugly chick taking pictures of kids, media blitzes don't make police investigations more effective, they just get in the way.
Well said.

Fething great idea, let's encourage vigilanteism amongst those who are already incredibly unstable, violent, and have perpetrated crimes!
Now you wonder why some people deride and mock those who say that the USA is the greatest country on earth? And before you come out with some not-so-witty comeback, I was being rhetorical and over the top. You get what I mean.

Besides, at least in our case, we can still make a tenable claim to being the greatest country on earth. The sun has set on other's claims for quite some time, whereas our military spans the globe.
