I'll highlight a few of his own comments for you and then you can come back and tell me that society has no cause to put some restraint on this guy.....
Yes, let's all uphold this fuckers "rights".
Like I said earlier, if he wanted to be treated like anyone else and have his rights and freedoms maintained maybe he should have blogged about something other than little girls, maybe he shouldn't have basically stalked people's kids and took pictures of them and put them on the wab talking about how much he is attracted to them.
Just a thought.
Sorry, his current predicament is a product of his own making. He is a risk, period. What, parents are just supposed to take him at his word that he won't offend?
Some fantasies really are best kept to oneself. I haven't the least bit of sympathy for this slimeball. He can count himself lucky that at least he is free to move, and move to a different country if need be. If he were a convicted criminal on parole there would be far more restrictive measures in place for him I'm sure.

I did read the whole article, which is exactly the reason why I oppose this restraining order.
Of course, parents shouldn't take his word for it - they should keep their children away from strangers, and they should tell anyone taking pictures of their children to fuck off.
But precisely because this guy is so open about it, he's not much of a threat. He doesn't hide his desires, and he knows he's being watched, so he knows that the moment he does something - anything - he's going to get caught.
This guy would be much more dangerous if he didn't speak about it, or if he moved to a place where people didn't know him, because then he would probably get the chance to get in contact with children.
And not only does this restraining order have the potential to force this guy into (dangerous) hiding, it might also prevent other pedophiles from seeking psychiatric help. Making it clear to pedophiles that if their desires are outed, they're going to be cast out by society as a whole will drive them into hiding, making it harder to track them and protect children from them.
In my opinion, the government should encourage pedophiles to get psychiatric help, and track them at the same time - all without instilling in them the knowledge that being exposed would ruin their lives.
After all, what would you rather have, a pedophile who's under psychiatric treatment and is being watched by law enforcement, or one who's hiding his true nature, is not being treated and might very well get a job that involves dealing with children on a daily basis?
