There are 2 sex offenders living in our neighborhood. 2 despicable people that are too stupid to keep their dicks in their pants or hands to themselves. 2 morons that couldn’t figure out that for many years society has shunned the sexual advances of adults on girls under the age of 18. Basically these people are dumb as a fence post.
Here are links to the dumbasses:

Just go to Iowa Courts Online and search for his name under Trial Court – Case Search. Apparently Brandon doesn’t think very hard about what he does before he does it.

Now I realize that I need to talk to my children about hard subjects like good and bad touches, strangers, and that the world isn’t the ideal place that we wish it was. There are bad people in the world. I have to teach my children to recognize the bad people and I have to be there and listen to them when they think they’ve met a bad person. I have to be vigilant about my children and the other children in the neighborhood to keep them away from the jackasses mentioned above. Basically, this is a damn good time to talk to my children and start to develop open and honest communication with them without scaring the living crap out of them and making them hole themselves up in their bedroom for the rest of their lives (or until I kick them out at 18).
These people are on a sex offender registry. You can sign up to receive emails about changes in the sex offender registry as it happens in your zip code (eg. people moving and leaving). I actually saw one where the guy’s address changed from Apt. X to Cty. Jail. Hehe.
I do not agree with the new Iowa law stating that sex offenders can not live withing 2000 ft of day care facilities.
Here is what this law gives us.
1) A high concentration of sex offenders of all degrees living in a neighborhood that is usually low income and putting the children in this neighborhood at a very high risk of being abused by the high risk offenders.
2) Extra police work with shrinking budgets.
“This law is both poorly conceived and illogical, for it places burdens on police that do not enhance community safety,” said Ben Stone, Executive Director of the ACLU of Iowa. “Herding former offenders into penal colonies may help get politicians re-elected, but it is a poor use of law enforcement dollars. The unfortunate families who happen to live in the few areas where these former offenders can live aren’t too thrilled about it either.”
3) It isn’t beneficial to the mental health programs that treat the offenders. More people reoffend when put in a dead end environment with no chance of redemption. Sex offender penal colonies are exactly designed to put people in these dead end environments.
