I know I'm going to be "booed" for this, but where should the line drawn for sex offenses and the constitution? When have they officially served their time? It seems as if they are under more than double jeopardy -- what if you're on a sex offender database for something considerably "less bad", such as having sex with a minor when there might only be a year or two separation in age (18-16)? I don't know if all the databases make any distinction whatsoever. Is there a sunset to a listing on a sex offender database? Should the person that commits that level of crime be punished for the remainder of his / her life? What happens if something that is against the law now becomes acceptable (or at the very least non-illegal) 40 years from now? Think of the south's laws against sodomy between consensual adults, etc.

I'm sorry, but it's just not as simple as "PEDOPHILE!!!!!" or "RAPISTTTT!!!"

I concur. There's some definite problems. A 19-year-old whose 17-year-old girlfriend of 18 months pissed-off dad files charges against is hardly a lifelong sex offender, but some systems don't see it that way. Need more granularity!
