![Sex-offender registration has always bothered me — I gave a speech opposing Megan’s Law in eighth grade! — but wow:
The Scarlet Letter for Maryland sex offenders this Halloween will be a bright orange pumpkin.
That is the symbol on a sign they are required to post on their doors with a warning, in capital letters, to trick-or-treaters: “No candy at this residence.”
The paper signs began arriving last week in the mailboxes of the roughly 1,200 violent and child-sex offenders across the state with a letter explaining how they are to comport themselves on Oct. 31. […]
In addition to posting the sign, the offenders must stay at home, turn off outside lights and not answer the door, according to the letter obtained by The Washington Times.
I desperately want one of these signs. Will pay top dollar. (via Tapped via Simon)](http://24.media.tumblr.com/NU134Yj5of5p3j1pYB4xJ5vWo1_400.jpg)
