Argument
For my argument project I was asked to do a paper about a problem or situation in my community. I was looking for some ideas and came a across and article about a sex offender moving to our community. I thought that would be an amazing topic to write about. In Dec 2014, a sex offender by the name of Billy Dotson was going to be let out of prison. He was to move to Rose Hill. As anyone could expect not too many people were happy about that. Dotson was to move here as soon as his house on Harris Drive a ready to move in. When people caught word of that there were many complaints. Mr.Powell stated, “In the state of Kansas there are no laws that protects families, there’s nothing out there right now for families to be protected from …show more content…

I understand the fear and confusion, and the anger that our little community was facing.
Nobody wants a criminal next door even if he or she has done their time. We all want to believe that our community is above the rest. Dotson did not move to Rose Hill. Once he was released he moved to Sedgwick County because his house burnt down.
During my research I discovered some very interesting information. I was looking for some information on Mr. Dotson and I found that there are other offenders living in our community. There is another offender who lives here who has served time for the same crime.
Another criminal lives a block from me that is a registered felon and has been to prison for criminal discharge of a fire arm. Some people may feel offended or upset because it is not a very comfortable subject. Some of you may think that people should be able to live where ever they want. I respect your thoughts, but I do not agree with them. My goal is to raise awareness and keep as many criminals out of our town as possible. Keeping one criminal from moving here doesn’t make it safe. We have to be aware of who is living here and who is safe to be around. I am asking you for your help to search regularly for offenders in our community and pass the information on to your neighbors. Let’s all stay informed so we can have a safe town to live in. We have to protect one

Another inmate, Ernest Ray Willis, had a case that was freakishly similar to Willingham’s. In 1987, Willis had been convicted of setting a fire, in West Texas, that killed two women. Willis told investigators that he had been sleeping on a friend’s living-room couch and woke up to a house full of smoke. He said that he tried to rouse one of the women, who was sleeping in another room, but the flames and smoke drove him back, and he ran out the front door before the house exploded with flames. Witnesses maintained that Willis had acted suspiciously; he moved his car out of the yard, and didn’t show “any emotion,” as one volunteer firefighter put it.

The film Dear Zachary, directed by Kurt Kuenne, makes an argument in response to a very specific situation: the murder of Kuenne’s best friend Andrew Bagby and Bagby’s son Zachary, both killed by Andrew’s ex-girlfriend Shirley Turner. Kuenne argues that bail should be denied to anybody accused of a serious crime who also has custody of a child. While this argument is reasonable, it only provides a solution for very narrow circumstances. For the greater protection of society as a whole, an expanded version of Kuenne’s stance on bail laws is necessary. Bail should be denied not only to people accused of a serious crime who have custody of a child, but also to anybody suspect of a violent crime.

A new Georgia law forbids registered sex offenders to live or work within 1000 feet of schools, daycares, churches, swimming pools, and even school bus stops. However, according to Source D (Homeless Sex Offender Faces Life Term in Augusta), “Homelessness is not an acceptable excuse.” Now tell me, how do you expect a registered sex offender to even have a home after they get out of jail? Yes, some of them might live with family, but some of them don’t even have that option. Another law that was passed in Florida in October of 2001, required women to run ads in newspapers describing themselves and their sexual histories, if they wanted to put up a child for adoption AND couldn’t find the child’s
