You're tellin me. He taught 3rd grade at my school. My family caught him breaking into our house and looking at porn on our computer. It's a relief to know he's locked up, at least for a while.

What a perv? He represents a growing minority in the country, much like the gays, whose abherrent behavior begs for normalization and societal acceptance, not ostrisization and disenfanchisement. They are people too! They just want to live a quiet life with equal rights and an acknowledgment that, while it's morally questionable to get frisky with the little ones, child molestation laws should be widely accepted as an archaic notion from the Victorian era reuiring mass revisionwith a view that favors reasonable liberties.

Then the law should follow with an ammendment that any and all taxpaying citizens with at least one good eye should be at equally liberty to shoot them in the nuts.

oh ya lets defend the rights of the perverts and forget the victoms. Interesting you would compare child molesters to the gay society, sounds like you have some simular issues. Child molesting is abuse! And those who vicitmise deserve to be punished.

Are you seriously going to compare a pedophile to a gay person? Pedophiles deserve to be shot/tortured! Gay people are only human & going off of their own sexual instinct. Pedophiles are sick & will NEVER get "better". There is absolutely NO help for a pedophile at all!!! My question to you is, are you a pedophile too? Do you really think it is ok for a person to have sexual encounters with a minor/unwilling minor? What if it happened to your child, mother, sister, brother, father.... WOuld you still have the same opinions? Honestly, I think you are in serious need of some psychological help!

I have two children that were abused almost 2 yrs ago & the P.O.S. is still free! My babies suffer on a daily basis because of that sick, sick man! THe worst part was that we knew him very well. We lived with him & my babies called him "daddy" not their biological father, but they loved him just the same. Our justice system fails children every single day, so let's hope that all victims of child abuse get their justice like they should!

Nixon Thurman is not in jail. I cannot find him registered as a registered sex offender. Is he a registered sex offender?
