Okay, the part I am trying to understand here is why there were over 10,000 fugitives that needed to be rounded up in the first place and that could be rounded up so easily over a six day period? It's great that these guys are off the streets, especially if they are predators, but why were they being allowed to just roam around in the first place? Second question is in regards to just who these people were or are...it says that about 1700 were alleged sex offenders....who were the other 9000 people? Were they killers? Were they drunk drivers? Were they tax resistors? This is the kind of news story that scares the hell out of me. This is a huge number of people to be rounded up. If they were all wanted for sex offenses, that is one thing....but it doesn't seem that they were. Is this the beginning of the bigger round ups we can expect in the future in the US? cd
