Via MapSexoffenders.com, I produced a map of convicted sex offenders near the UM campus. 
Who would have guessed we’d have so many?

What’s “convicted” and what’s “sex offender”?
How about a map showing the location of convicted and/or arrested or suspected con-men, thiefs, DWIs, corrupt politicians, perps of violent crimes involving guns and knifes, war criminals, and writers of cheap, racy novels?????
Ok, I should be a bit more serious and professional about this. Do you now feel safer or less safe, for yourself and your family and friends, knowing where these people live? Have any of these people lived there for more than one year? If so, then they probably have not re-offended. How will you deal with these people now? Is it helpful to the community to have these people identified? Would it be equally helpful to the community to have con-men, thiefs, DWIs, etc etc similarly identified as to where they reside?
Feh! Whoda guessed you’d have so few!
Completely agreed to Doran.
