it's not illegal because he didn't actually take her anywhere.. kinda like if you scope out a place to steal something but don't actually steal anything then you're not doing anything illegal.
sex offenders have the same rights as everyone else (in the systems eyes) except for the fact that they have to register for 10 years( I think) and they have to inform the sheriff's department of where they live and have to get permission to leave the state.
vigilante justice can be an equal danger to society. for instance, the neighbors kick the guys ass and they end up in jail for trying "to protect" the child. there are loopholes in the system that need to be filled up but on the same note you can't get too drastic and end up on with a witch hunt.
