Lee Enterprises Midwest Editor Marc Chase: Sex offenses are something our society just can't ignore

From The Journal Times.com:

The Wisconsin Department of Corrections has an online database of registered sex offenders. You can search by name, or refine your search to learn if there are registered sex offenders within a 1-, 2- or 3-mile radius of a particular address, then a map pinpointing registered sex offenders in your search area is generated, as shown above when selecting the City of Racine. The website address is: https://appsdoc.wi.gov/public/offenders.

What unadulterated horseshit.  Racine loves its sex offenders.  They are part of the fabric of government.  Multiply the map above by about 10X for a truer picture of the situation.  Want to get somewhere in Racine politics?  Molest a child to prove your worth.
