Title: Calling our Nederlands friends
Post by: Aussie Mark on March 17, 2011, 02:36:18 PM: At 1:53 into this disturbing news story, a bass guitar is seen in the home of the 37yo Dutch ringleader of this global peodophile ring. Rob/Chris, if you meet this local 37yo bass player, kick him in the nuts for me, thanks >:(

Post by: Basvarken on March 17, 2011, 03:32:23 PM: As far as I can see this 37 yo Dutchman wasn't living in the Netherlands as the police cars in front of his house look Australian (or English)?
So you are going to have to do the nutkicking yourself ;)

This week the big case against a paedophile who worked at a kindergarten in Amsterdam has started. The arrestment of this guy shocked the entire country as he seems to have made a lot of victims...

Slowly lowering them into lava pits by cheese wire strapped to their tackle is far too good for these types...

Worst job in the world - reviewing the evidence; no, strike that, the legal representation for the defence... how could you live with yourself after that...

No doubt there are bass owners who have committed other crimes. We can't expect every bass brother to be a decent person.

Killed an innocent man who was by all accounts a gem of a human being.

There are some rumours there are even lawyers among us.... :o

I can't stand people having a go at people (or animals) who can't defend themselves, like babies, kids, disabled people. Makes me sick.

Post by: uwe on March 18, 2011, 06:19:11 PM: I don't think John meant to advocate it - it was more a social commentary.

This is treacherous ground, say you don't like this type of public branding and next thing you know someone says "Uwe defends pedophiles". He doesn't, but he defends having a second chance for people who have erred, even gravely. And I don't see this helping that second chance. I know, repeat offenders, but nine repeat offenders can't justify the naming and shaming of one who has changed his life. If you want to see a good movie on a touchy subject that avoids obvious answers then see The Woodsman with Kevin Bacon. It will make you think.

I tried that site out of curiosity and checked the closest four listings to my location - not a single one of those listed is still here (if they ever were). IMO the site isn't worth much.

Additionally, I checked out some places where I know some felons live and they weren't listed.

Post by: Pilgrim on March 19, 2011, 09:52:21 PM: I'm generally a proponent of people having more access to information rather than less. However, in today's world the lines between providing access to information and excessive butting into people's lives are getting very difficult to draw.
