And classic lib-solution, don't punish the criminals but put chips in kids' heads to track their whereabouts.
Amen.
I've had conversations with many people on this matter, and I've come away with the idea that we do not really "want to go down this road".
It
sounds good from the standpoint of safety where children are concerned, but the uses of such a "chip", especially in the hands of well-meaning, but over-zealous people could mean danger to the rest of us.
Oh yeah, just like tracking a kidnap victim, you could be tracked everywhere you went, whether it was a trip to Dominoes for pizza, a late night visit to "Choo-Choos".
Even which church you go to, video stores, grocery and other establishments.
I'm not that eager for my predilictions to be fodder for anyone who wants to do a search out there; yet.
