Pedophile-free zone a good law

Rockland County Legislator Ed Day's sponsored law, Rockland's Pedophile-Free Child Safety Zone Act, is great for the safety and security of our children. This law isn't flawed. I am outraged that Rockland County Executive C. Scott Vanderhoef feels that this law should be looked at - I could not care, and neither should any parent care, that an individual convicted of such a heinous crime cannot find a place to live.

Let's not attack a good law. The county government should enforce the law, not change it to place their needs over the needs of our children.
