Bush signs bill to protect children from perverts. Amen to that!
Today is a good day, indeed. The President has just signed a bill into law that holds perverts responsible for their actions against children. Among the many positive things the new law provides, it: requires convicted child molesters to be listed on a national Internet database and face a felony charge for failing to update their whereabouts; creates the national child abuse registry, requiring investigators to do background checks on prospective adoptive and foster parents; establishes a comprehensive federal DNA database of material collected from convicted molesters, and procedures for the routine DNA collection and comparison to the database when someone has been convicted of such an offense; provides federal funding for states to track pedophiles using global positioning devices; allows victims of child abuse to sue their molesters; and imposes a mandatory minimum sentence of: (30 years for raping a child; 10-year penalty for sex trafficking offenses involving children and for coercing child prostitution); and increases minimum sentences for molesters who travel between states.
WOW. Sounds like someone FINALLY wised up and decided to take care of our children. Our children DESERVED BETTER from us and, before NOW, we had FAILED them.
