I received an email with a link to this felonspy site. It is supposed to tell you if there are convicted felons in your area and what their crimes are. It's disturbing how many sexual offenders are in my "good" neighborhood, but I almost find this paragraph from their web site more disturbing....
You deserve to know where felons are and should have access to free public criminal background check systems. Remember, safety starts with good information, even if it ends with a loaded .44 caliber pistol. While FelonSpy.com can’t help you get a gun, we can certainly help you figure out which direction to point it in.
