While pointing out that McClellan is not a convicted sex offender, Mr. Tsai might have mentioned what McClellan *has* done: not only as McClellan taken pictures of "LGs," but, as I understand it, McClellan has written a blog on which he rates public places and events based on how well stocked they are with little girls.

The fact that McClellan is not a convict is no trivial distinction, that's true. But he is not a convict for the sole reason that the legislature never imagined this crime. How many pedophiles as McClellan informed? Spurred on?

I wouldn't go as far as to call Mr. Tsai an apologist, but by omitting the gruesome fact of McClellan's blog, he flirts with the line more than I imagine he--or anyone--would want to.

McClellan also allowed a feature story to be written about him in which his face was shown a couple of times -- rather akin to a suicidal death wish. He's "rubbing the law's nose in it," and this restraining order seems to be made to order. But outlaws just might find him first.

He lives on public assistance, out of his car or with his parents. How'd he get a blog going?
