It has recently been reported that Attorney’s General’s from about a dozen U.S. States, including Connecticut, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Mississippi, Maryland, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania have demanded that News Corporation’s social networking site MySpace voluntarily deliver to the AG’s a list of all sex offenders who have registered for or used the MySpace social networking service.

It?s funny how the laws only apply to certain people. If this is such a big issue, why don't they just give pedophiles life-sentences? The laws are designed to oppress. By their very nature they put people at greater risk, not less.

Giving up those records would do nothing but give people a false sense of security. I'm not worried about the pedophiles that got caught. I'm worried about the one's that haven't.

It's nice to know these people are still using fear to push their agenda. I'm surprised they didn't argue that MySpace is a virtual hangout for terroists, but that would be the same as saying it's a hangout for republicans.

If thses asshats want to do something worthwhile, perhaps they should pickup a gun, go to Iraq and finish the war the started.
