• Summarize the argument made in this article.
• What evidence is presented to support the argument?
• State and justify your position on banning sex offenders from social-networking sites?

The argument in this article is whether or not to allow registered sex offenders to have a social networking site that they can use. A majority of people say that sex offenders should not be banned from social networking sites.

The evidence that is shown is that people all over the country who are on the sex offenders list does not necessarily mean that they raped a child or even touched a child. People had to be put on because of participating in prostitution and peeing outside in public. They had no contact with a child and being on the sex offenders list makes it a stereotypical thought.

I feel like some sex offenders should be banned from social networking sites because of the charges against them. There are sex offenders who actually have not done anything except pee in public and yes, of course that is wrong but that does not make them a sex offender. I feel like they should have the choice to get a facebook if they want one. Offenders who have been charged with touching a child or being on the internet and seeking attention from young children should be banned from every networking site there is. I believe that if they do it once they'll do it again.
