Also via Wildhack, woman breaks in to prison to have sex with boyfriend. Does this qualify as "unlawful oral copulation" and "unlawful communication with an inmate"? Sure, but should she be branded a sex offender??? According to court documents, she will if she's convicted.
So now having sex with a consenting adult means you could spend the rest of your life not allowed to be alone around children, driven out of your neighborhoods, etc.

Well, of course, because it's obvious that any sexual behavior just leads to "...obscenity, child pornography, and child sexual exploi-ta-tion on the Internet."
The sad part is that by crying wolf the schmucks who get these flawed systems put into place are just doing long-term harm to their alleged causes.
Not that this in any way mitigates the stupidity of this woman's behavior...
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your
comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel
they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine,
if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't
try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted
if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
