Killing Sex Offenders

So we have today's version of the Scarlett Letter: the list of people registering as sex offenders. Great idea, right? Well some brilliant guy in the northeast decided to kill two people he saw on the list (before blowing his own brains out). "Great!" you say. "We should kill all of them!" Right? Think again: One of the victims, 24-year-old William Elliott, was convicted four years ago of having sex with a girlfriend who was only days away from her 16th birthday.
