Hudak still intends to make sex offender registry public

LEAMINGTON, ONT.—Ontario’s police don’t like the idea but Progressive Conservative Leader Tim Hudak is sticking with his plan to make the province’s sex offender registry public if he wins the Oct. 6 provincial election.

OPP Commissioner Chris Lewis has warned making the registry public could lead to vigilante action — even killings — by citizens against convicted sex offenders living in the community.

“I totally disagree with Mr. Hudak on this,” Lewis said recently in a television interview. “In the U.S. states where they do it, it doesn’t necessarily lend itself to greater adherence to the legislation. We have almost 100 per cent compliance rate in this province with our sexual offender registry because they’re not online.”

In Ottawa, Liberal Leader Dalton McGuinty said it’s a little rich for Hudak to be carping on crime given his proposal to put work gangs of prisoners out in the community.

“He wants to take prisoners who are safe and secure away from the general population and release them into our communities…it puts our communities at risk,” McGuinty told reporters.

“Our police…tell us this particular approach is not going to lead to more public safety so I’m with them,” he added.

The premiere has shown contempt for the physical safety of those living in Caledonia. Assaults have taken place and McGuinty will do nothing about it.

We saw just this week in BC how the justice system has neglected to protect children from obvious harm.

Enough is enough. At some point even decent people have a right to be very skeptical of those who have been entrusted to protect them. It is no longer acceptable.

The premiere is a Marxist

What bothers me is that the police in Canada could care less about the protection of society.

The people deserve to know who the perverts are because we pay the bills.

I'm telling you this. The government of Canada and every single institution is run by Marxist bureaucrats who could care less about the average Canadian.

These people live to "control" every aspect of our lives and until they are put down, this garbage will continue.

Vigilante justice has been around since mankind yet these fucking Marxist's want to change history.
