You read his statement different then I did. He's not saying that people who makes these statements be labelled as sex offenders. He's saying that people who make these statements be brought to task. If a law has been violated, then charged, and if the court determines there is reason to label them as a sex offender, then so be it.

From grandparent:

> ...labeled as sexual criminals and placed on a register.

I understand you're pointing out the fact that grandparent said "if convicted," but parent's point is that _even if convicted_, being put on a registry for the rest of your life is extreme.

Nice misquote.

..and if convicted..

The case in point relates to harassment and threats of rape here.

What part of that isn't illegal exactly?
