[Vision2020] Kevin Coe Didn't do his time

No, he hasn't done his time. And letting him out will only bring harm to countless woman and children.
 
I think spending millions on trying Coe for each crime he committed is a waste of money. He is mentally ill. You do not release the mentally ill and violent sex offenders into the general public.

You want to imprison somebody? Try them in court. He's done his time for what he's been convicted of.

I think you guys are incorrect when you say he did his time. Coe was actually only convicted on one of the 44 counts of rape. He still can be tried for the remaining 43, as well he should. Not to mention a whole host of other crimes he was never brought up on.

As much as I hate to say it, because I hate being tarred with the 
"defending rapists" brush, Kai's right on this one, at least as
far as 
his stance on thought crimes.  He did his time.  We can't put people in 
jail just because we think they might commit crimes.  We can't put them 
in jail even if they say they will commit a crime next chance they get.  
The government can stay out of my head, thank you very much.

What it boils down to is: if he is seriously mentally ill, they should 
be able to put him away for his own good as well as others.  If they 
can't show that, then he has to go free. We either go with the system we 
have or toss it all out the window.  We can't just make an exception 
because we really, really, don't like this guy.

I don't know if Kai was actually suggesting that we put rapists to 
death, but if so I'm against it.  Philosophical issues aside, it's too 
easy to convict the wrong guy.
