Registered child sex offenders in Australia will be stuck in a giant penal colony (known as Australia) under a proposed law:

Australia's estimated 20,000 registered child sex offenders would lose their passports under a new law that government officials say is aimed at preventing convicted pedophiles from victimizing children overseas. Officials call the proposal a "world first" in the fight against child sex tourism.

"This new legislation represents the toughest crackdown on child sex tourism by any government, anywhere," Foreign Minister Julie Bishop said, adding that Australia is "determined to prevent the sexual exploitation of vulnerable young children overseas."

    I completely support this!

    Pro-active enforcement! We can eliminate all of those unattractive people who look 'creepy' before they rape! We can eliminate neckbeards anytime they leave the basement with one simple 'looks rapey' report! Perfect! The world will be a better, more attractive place almost overnight!

    This opens up exciting new business opportunities too. In fact, this one could start now! Want to partner? We'll need to divisions. The legit business charges to 'investigate' anyone you don't like. With the very expensive diamond level service plan, the remote arm of the company sends 'apparent' child porn to the target of the investigation and then reports them to authorities. There is no need to use child porn since images of slim adults that look young count unless the investigation target can prove the depicted people are adults (we'll use foreigners to prevent that). In fact to make sure the right people are jailed, even now some places deem porn of legal adults to be child porn if the prosecutor feels they look too young - so our business will success isn't threatened!

    Who is ready to invest on the ground floor with this amazing opportunity? You'll just need to install this pre-qualification app. * applicants agree to participate in our 'eliminate the betas' testing program if not selected.

    Because drug and sex crime laws aren't already used as modern 'heritic!' accusations. Drug law use is only more popular because of the asset forfeiture laws. That time I was threatened with fake harassment or rape allegations by a group of three co-workers unless I planted porn on another co-workers PC was such a laugh. You see, they hadn't knuckled under when threaten and needed to be taught a lesson. It was even better when I found out HR was in on it and they threatened me with termination if I alerted the 'victim' co-worker. It gets so tangled and messy when this happens, so giving these people execution powers will make everything tidy don't you think?
