Far be it from me to ever take up for one of these guys, but the fact of the matter is the whole "paying one's debt to society" thing is supposed to apply to everybody.

Course, the reality is it applies to nobody, but hey.

how can they thing that blocking peds from social web sites is violating human rights? convicted peds should not have the same rights as a law abiding citizens. if they can not ban them they should come up with other laws that they can trace what they are doing. civil liberties are for citizens that follow the law not convicted offenders. when you break the law especially with violent crimes you should have to live under a seperate set of rules especially when released into the general public.

Then they are privileges not rights.

You just limit the "friending" to those you know.
