I disagree..she's a self-appointed moraliser who goes for the populist angle. She's tabloid TV.
People like her are the most dangerous-they have 'credibility' in the public's eye and they propagate myths and untruths and fear. She does more harm then she's ever done good and lines her own pockets at the same time.
I know a hundred real life workers that help and assist children in third world countries and despair of the those like Rantzen that make their job that much harder.
As for this ridiculous 'sex offender' status..just cast your minds back to the Profumo era where everyone involved would have been labeled a 'sex offender' in modern times yet Profumo went onto do more charitable works than a dozen moralising Rantzens.
You need no more proof of the dangers of the so-called 'sex offender's register' than the current case in the USA where an 11 year old kidnapped girl has just been discovered after giving birth to 2 kids by her abductor. So much for children being protected from a registered sex offender.
Those who support this permanent punishment are no better than those who agreed with Jews, political opponents, gays etc wearing coloured stars in the Nazi era. |

You can't be too harsh on Esther. I'm sure she means well. As far as she is concerned jk, you are a convicted sex offender and most parents wouldn't want their children looked after by a convicted sex offender.
What Esther and many others don't know is that the conviction was wrong (according to you). I can't say for sure whether it was wrong or not for sure as I wasn't there.
I just hope that the conviction gets overturned and justice is done.
I believe that Esther is a very good broadcaster and is naturally protective of children, like most women (often misguidingly). She can only give opinions on the information in front of her. Maybe if she read this website often she wouldn't come to such snap judgements. |

Her actual words are "no parent would like someone like Jonathan King let loose on their children"... she does, of course, believe everything she reads in the media. |

Kids should have a whole range of people speak to them in schools..it would probably be far more useful than much of what they are taught.
Police and soldiers etc should go in and talk about how they arrest, stitch up people or plot the murder of dozens by bombing etc..what it's like to kill..how they feel about etc.
Those who have been through the courts for whatever reason..whether fraud, shoplifting so-called 'sex crimes" (which covers a variety of things these days) should be able to describe their full experiences in the courts.
As it is they get their messages from tabloid newspapers and TV..both experts in the art of lieing for profit.
Yes JK..go and support Rantzen -wear a campaign T/S and hand out leaflets..drive the batty old fool crazy.
The one person who should be banned from schools is Esther..who would inflict that on innocent children ? |

I've had half a dozen e-mails about this; my friends are very protective but I'm worried by their listening habits!
One suggested I find God to repair my damaged reputation.
I answered that I prefer a damaged reputation to God. |
