The example of the 18 yr old guy and the 15 yr old girl and the angry father is no different than you or I having too much to drink one night, and doing something stupid like driving. You may have only done it once, you may not. Next time might be the time you kill someone. Does that make you an evil person? Did you calculate and plan on killing someone or even just hurting someone? Probably not. Now take a sex offender. Not the kid and his girlfriend, but the rapist, or the child molester. The guy who stalks women or little children. I sure as hell want to know where he is living, and if he was near my children, or near where they walk or play. He is worse than a drunk driver or a burgler. He is cold and calculating, and in his warped brain, he is much more likely in my mind to do it again. He NEEDS to do it again. It is exciting for him.
A child should never have to suffer in any way. A woman should not be forced into sex and made to suffer. That is why I think knowing where these people are helps.
