Councillor demands to know identities of sex offenders in Windsor
"Tom and Cat Bursnall are parents of one and are worried by the possibility of convicted sex offenders living in their neighbourhood.
THE names and addresses of paedophiles [sic] could be made available to the public after a councillor's demands for information on offenders living on his doorstep.
Councillor Tom Bursnall, of Clewer East ward, is writing to police to request information on all known sex offenders living in his and bordering wards.
The UK Independence Party councillor told The Observer: "I demand to know every single sex offender who is living on our doorstep.
"With respect to the police and the local agencies that are involved with keeping an eye on convicted offenders, I do not have the faith they can keep track of these people."
Cllr Bursnall added if police provided the information he would hand it over to community groups that work with children - such as Scouts, sports clubs and nurseries - so they are aware of any 'dangerous' isic] people living in the area.
Cllr Phill Bicknell, of Park ward, backed his former fellow Conservative's demand for information.
He said: "He has got a good point. I have been involved with Scouts all my life and I am very much on the side of youth and we should protect them.
"I have four children of my own and if a sex offender ever touched one of my children I don't think I would be responsible for my actions."
A spokesman for Thames Valley Police said: "Any correspondence with the councillor concerned would be a private matter and we do not think it is appropriate to comment further at this stage.""

UK - Councillor demands to know identities of sex offenders in Windsor
"So who is to decide if they are 'dangerous' or not? Mr. Bursnall? Just because someone is on the registry doesn't mean they are a danger to kids or anybody else for that matter. "

From Mr Bicknell's comments, it appears you may be just one step from the vigilantes, you feed with your poison.
