CMV: It makes sense for organized crime members to register like sex offenders.

In the US, sex offenders are required to make their presence known in their neighborhood. They are not allowed to live certain places and their information is readily available to the public. 

This is all after they have served their time in prison. They continue to pay for their crime. 

It makes sense. They tend to target those who have a less chance of protecting themselves from them.

Sex offenders also have a recidivism rate between 12%-39% depending on the time and treatment. 


I think the same measures should be taken for those who are known members of criminal organizations. 


The numbers are not precise, but a cursory search shows that possible 80% of crime in the US is the result of gang activity. 

Some prison systems vary, but the recidivism rate of gang members is **~80%!**


Many times, the unsuspecting & innocent are the victims of gang violence.

So, to better be aware, I think it makes sense for the public to be aware of those who are more likely to commit crimes.

Registering *sex offenders* doesn't even make sense.

The goal of the criminal justice system should be (at least in large part) rehabilitation. The goal should be to prevent recidivism. So let's think on this.

Why do you think most people join gangs? Because they are black hearted thugs? Not likely. The primary reasons tend to be things like protection and (sadly) economic oppertunity. If the ladder of success doesn't reach down into Harlem, you will find your own way to scramble up the buildings.

So you take people who have bad economic options, and you subject them to a whole host of brutal and pointless restrictions that make it harder for them to find a real job, a safe place to live or otherwise live a normal life.

What the fuck do you think is going to happen?
