Protesters Call for Restrictions on Sex Offenders in Korea
It seems like common sense to keep these sex offenders away from schools:
Last month, Park Byung-hwa, 39, a serial rapist who was released after 15 years of imprisonment for sexually assaulting 10 women between December 2002 and October 2007, settled in Hwaseong, Gyeonggi Province. He moved into a residential district where two elementary schools and one high school are located within a three kilometers radius of his home.

Residents have held multiple rallies calling for Park’s eviction. In response, the local government has additionally installed 30 surveillance cameras in the area and is distributing window locking devices and safety alarm gadgets to women living nearby, but such measures have done little to assuage their concerns about possible re-offending by the ex-convict.
Even though registered sex offenders are closely monitored by probation officers, an absence of restrictions blocking heinous criminals from residing near schools and child-related facilities is highly unnerving for residents in the neighborhood.

A simpler way might be to allow personal firearms. Then the parents could correct the behavior.
Teachers are more likely to sexually abuse children than those on the sex offender list. Cameras are a good idea, but if they are all pointed outside schools it really is missing the main threat. Also social media is the access point used to reach children in 2 out of 5 cases. A ban on sex offenders using computers would probably help.
– The details are not clear but it looks like there is some confusion between a rapist who goes after adult women and a child molester. Based on past history, children don’t seem to be the point of interest here.
– He was not a casual one-off date rapist. Have to look up the statistics, but with his record, reoffense is not just a possibility but perhaps a probability.
– I am a massive proponent of carrying a gun… but in a practical rather than dogmatic way. I like living in Korea because I have zero need or interest in a gun. It would solve none of the problems I can imagine facing in my current risk assessment.
In America? My answer to the Knock-out Game is the Glock-out Game. Too many 3rd world people with 3rd world values in America. Mix in sloth, dependency, envy, propaganda, drugs… and you have a crowd so dangerous it is best just to shoot first.
It’s not a popular opinion but the FBI crime statistics say the most expedient way would be to sort by color.
None of you are going to bite on that statement, are you?
How about we stomp the skull of Tantilla oolitica.
Well, CH, stomping endangered species is rather like my suggestion. No one said what age the parents needed to be. Or that they needed to actually shoot anyone.
But the fellow might stay “fully reformed” if he lived in an area full of armed parents.
