Registered sex offender wins a big lottery

[CurrentAffairs]

Only in America!

:slapme:



State records show Cowal is a registered sex offender and has an extensive record of arrests for alleged offenses beginning in 1993, ranging from burglary, lewd and lascivious or indecent assault upon a child, trespass, aggravated assault, driving under the influence, probation violation and high-speed fleeing from law enforcement. He was sentenced to 23 months in prison between 1993 and 2000.

So...I don't get it. Are sex offenders not supposed to be lucky? Are they supposed to live in poverty their whole lives? Should the government control how much money you have based off of how many laws you have broken? I have a speeding ticket, what's the maximum amount of money you think I should have?

Speeding tickets, eh? I'm sorry Kelsie, that limits you to receiving 10% or $1000 of any gratutious receipts of money. You should send the rest of such receipts to Iriemon, Inc., c/o Debatepolitics.com

I am all for sex offenders winning lotteries and then they should be made to give the money they won to the people they violated..........

That is ridiculous. He's already served his time in prison. Are you actually advocating taking money away from people for no reason? What kind of conservative are you?

Not really, a rapist in Britain won big not long ago.

I guess it's just one of those things . . . they play the game, they win, not much you can do about it.

Sorry, Iriemon. No money for you. We are talking about sex offenders, not speeders. Mark Foley already has that area sown up.

A not unexpected remark from one whose political beliefs are so right wing as to be very near to being Facist.
What amount of money can ever repay someone who has been subjected to a sexual attack?

Presumably NP has a particular pay scale in mind for such a compensation scheme.
With the number of Sexual predatory attacks committed in the US linked to the number of times a sexual predator wins a Lottery, I doubt very much whether any victim in particular would receive very much cash.

You call abusing a child not reason enough?

What type of liberal are you?

 

[talloulou]

I like to believe in karma and people getting what they deserve so crap like this makes me cringe. He has every right to win the lottery but man it's so hard to believe in a "bigger picture" and "meaning" in life when you hear this kind of thing. :roll:

The government does it all the time! In fact with our new congress I expect it to get much worse. Certainly if the government can raise my taxes because they want to do "nice things" for poor folk surely they can come up with a creative way to rob this a$$hole.

That is the most unfair assessment of someone's statement I think I have ever seen. Clever way to twist reasonable logic into something that it absolutely was not.

There have been cases already where civil penalties were paid for criminal acts. The Catholic Church comes to mind. I totally agree with NP...that kind of windfall does not belong in the hands of a sexual predator. It should be passed along to the victims of that offender's actions.

While it is true that the government does most often work to rob the people (and this is across political boundaries, both the main parties do this), I don't think the point is "well the government does it to normal people so they should most definitely take this guy's money". The government shouldn't come up with a way to rob this dude just because he won the lottery, nor should the government work in ways to take money from the rest of us either. This guy has already been sentenced and served his time. Winning the lottery is nothing more than dumb luck and just because this time it so happened to fall upon a child predator doesn't mean that we should work in a manner to take the money from him. With any luck, perchance he can use this money to move somewhere secluded and becomes a threat to no one else.

He may have served his sentence but he is not cured and the little kids he raped and sodomized will mever get over that for the rest of their life.....It is obvious you have never had children nor been involved with a family whose child has been violated in the most obscene way...There is no price to high for this scum to pay the victums.........

Shame on you Kelzie...........

Navy,

What kind of law are you proposing? Are you thinking maybe making it part of a person's debt to society to be taxed at a higher rate (getting progressively higher rate much faster than the regular code)? Making it a law that they should never be able to collect the winnings of any kind of gambling for themselves? What about inheriting large amounts of money?

I am just curious, not critical. I am trying to see if there is a proposal I could agree with. I am afraid they might use such monies to enable them to be more secretive and successful at perpetrating against future victims without getting caught.

I am for whatever it takes to help the victums of sexual abuse especially children......I don't know how to make it any clearer to you and I am shocked how you and kelzie can sympasize with the scum of the earth.....If it was up to me you would lock that scum up and throw away the key....The death penalty might even suffice..........

Umm, that defeats the entire purpose of having a lottery: A voluntary tax to raise revenue for the state. People would simply not participate in the lottery at all if they couldn't win any money, which means the rest of us have to pay more NON-voluntary taxes.

I am not against lotteries........Hell I play them myself but if a sexual pervert wins one then he should pay all costs to rehabilitate the victum he violated.........

You never consider the economic consequences of the silly things you propose, do you?

I'm sure you will provide evidence that this man is still a molesting children so that a statement as this one can be found to be truthful.

Oh my ****ing god, you are insane NP. If you read my post and saw in there somewhere where I am in support of child predators ending up with that windfall, you have completely lost it. You're seeing things!! Please read more carefully. You are at serious risk of making a further fool of yourself.

You're on the right track. No one was griping when the guy (or any other criminal) was buying losing lottery tickets.

As far as the other part about sharing or giving it to his victim, we already have a system in place for that, civil lawsuit. (Brown v. Simpson ring a bell?)

 

[Iriemon]

He may have served his sentence but he is not cured and the little kids he raped and sodomized will mever get over that for the rest of their life.....

"little kids he raped and sodomized"? Where did you get that?

NP demonstrating his classic manuever in the fine art of debate -- make facts up to make your point stronger.

You should be more than happy to pay more NON-voluntary taxes.....after all you and your type supported the tax and spend democrats which are now in control of both houses.......at least the so-called republicans gave us a tax break.........now whine and cry about spending our children future away......but say nothing about the families with children NOW that have to deal with the increased tax burden your party will impose on us...........

Cowal, who is a registered sex offender in Florida, was the sole winner of a $14 million lottery drawing.

registered sex offender and has an extensive record of arrests for alleged offenses beginning in 1993, ranging from burglary, lewd and lascivious or indecent assault upon a child,

maybe before you attack Navy you should take your foot out of your mouth......typical of the liberals here are DP.....accuse someone without proof only to have the truth shoved back in their face.............

and Caine.......I thought your were a police officer? Yet you don't even know the law or the definition of the above charges?............you should be ashamed of yourself for thanking Iriemon.......esp after him making a total *** of himself to attack a fellow member without even knowing the facts...........I thought you mods were here to control this type of behavior.....not jump right in to attack a member or thank those who would..........:roll:
