HOME Secretary Jack Straw's 'stay calm' appeal (LET, July 27) to people who have a sex offender in their midst is typical of the Government and ones before.
They listen to people who say they know more than the common man in the street.
They give soft sentences and release these animals back into society and when they re-offend, which is often, they come with enough excuses to fill a book, and never once think of the victims.
So may I suggest that to relieve pressure in this situation, this sex offender is moved next door to Mr Straw. Then he can stay calm like he tells everyone else to.
