Vic, Rudeness is a sorry resort in any debate. However, that aside, according to you then, you'd advocate the death penalty for those classified high or medium risk, but not for those classified low risk? So when people classfied low risk are released, society must take its chances on whether on not they continue to prey on children - and that's ok? Personally, I'm not interested in risk categories which is why I didn't read the rest of the report. If something tells me initally that paedophiles have been released and have re-offended I don't need to know any more because the authorities can have no excuse for putting children's safety at risk. People who pose any threat whatsoever to children should be removed from society. Full stop. If that means locking them up for life or executing them, then so be it. Rather their lives than a child's. Who knows what that poor child in Portugal has been subjected to - it doesn't bear thinking about. I say again I have absolutely no sympathy for paedophiles - none - whatever category they're placed in.
Your question on mentally ill people is irrelevant to this discussion.
