I really feel sorry for people who have unchangeable, harmful, and violent sexual urges and fight with them every day to not hurt another person.

But frankly, I don't know how much I care about the people who have been shown that they cannot control themselves and hurt others for their own pleasure. I am a lot less willing to forgive the crimes wheres you directly harm someone else: murder, rape, assault, etc. because that person's second chance is being weighed against the happiness, psychological stability, or even lives of those around them.

The reason sex offenders feel the need to hurt people is lamentable, and it isn't fair that they were born with it. But like it or not, that is who they are. Being good people might be harder for them than others, but that's the hand they were dealt. As someone who has been addicted to substances, I know that one taste is all it takes and an addict can never be truly trust around their drug. Only, if an addict relapses, they hurt themselves. If these people relapse, they hurt others.

I would be much more interested in prevention than rehabilitation for this kind of offense.
