Keep "temporary" sex offenders of Socail Media and victims safe!

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I'm tired of abusers terrorising their victims through socail media. Although most people who are on this are only on it temporarily, meaning they have social media platforms. They use these platforms to bully the victims making justice invisible. Socail media is growing, it needs to be made SAFER.

The justice system has chewed and spit out many of these people but theres needs to be action taken even after they have "served time". There is not a switch on paedophiles where you can just turn off the idea of harming kids, serving time isnt enough and everyones children deserve to be kept safe!
