So registered sex offenders can't make a living? Would you rather have them on welfare?

A wide variety of innocuous crimes and misdemeanors, such as public urination within range of a school or park, or allowing lewd content to be visible on a screen near a child, can land you on the sex offender list.

I doubt anyone doesn't want them to have a job. But a government job? Definitely not a good idea.

lewd or lascivious acts with a child under 14

So immediately my first reaction is fuck that guy and that will remain my stance unless more evidence comes forth. If he is a child rapist, no I dont think he should be able to work. In fact he should be thrown into the middle of the ocean with the rest of them. Personally I think if someone with these charges works for the public the details of their case should be well known and publicly posted.
