Sex Offenders To Register Email Addresses

Thursday, January 31, 2008

Proposed legislation in New York would protect underage Internet users by creating an email registry of convicted sex offenders. What do you think?

Spencer Rimmer,
Pollster
"Don't they already have ways to distinguish sex offenders online? Isn't that what the winking emoticon is for?"

Ben Birtwistle,
Show Salesperson
"Underage kids shouldn't be on the Internet. They should be outside, enjoying fresh air, and getting into stranger's vans."

Lucy Pritchard,
Jewelry Cleaner
"But can't sex offenders just get new e-mail addresses? Nah, I'm probably just overthinking this."
