Sex offenders are a big problem. I mean, what do you do with someone who likes to fuck children? On one hand, the sex offender is probably a victim themselves, and they are probably in need of serious rehabilitation. Prison is not rehabilitation of course...but since rehabilitation is moderately effective at best, prison has the appeal of keeping these people away from the kids. It's just a thing, the whole mess of it.

Personally, I think this ruling by the Supreme Court is bad because it sets expectations and future precedence that could be abused. The current legal system already has dropped the ball on providing good legislation regarding sex offenders: you become a sex offender if you get caught taking a piss in public. It's pure insanity! But yeah. On one hand I see why this law could be deemed noble, but I think if people were willing they could come up with better solutions that waste less tax payer money.
