Those are some really intriguing statistics. I didn't realize that sex offenses were the largest percentage of crimes/arrests. I can't believe how many offenders there are in the country!

It really is scary! i was thinking about moving up by Michigan, but now that I see that it is one of the states with the most sex offenders, I may want to reconsider that.
