I think he was going to meet a 14 year old. It's legal to marry a 14 yo with a parent's permission. Many, many military men brought back teenage wives from their Vietnam tours. Some are still married.

Would be interesting to see stats on the Nam wives. What would "many" equate to?

Please tell me you aren't condoning this behavior? I would like to hear what the many teenage girls brought back as wives think. Do you think they had a choice? Some think of this as legali. I think it is legalized rape. Rape is rape.

He has moved to an age restricted community where minors are not in residence. Is fair to shun and judge a new resident who may otherwise be an upstanding guy who is looking for a new start?
He is a registered sex offender and needs to be kept track of. He didn't get a dui or steal beer from the local store. I personally would not socialize with him or encourage his coming into my home or anywhere near me. He was going to meet a minor for sex so tell me how he is being judged on his looks.

forgive him and extend a hand of friendship.

I agree.

Oh, my dear. Please just continue to be vigilant and use the senses you were born with. Hopefully, this man will be looking to live his life in a low key manner away from kids. Not knowing the first-hand story, I find it a dicey situation and I am saying that I am not quick to judge him without merit. I suppose I would need to know the entire story before I formed an opinion of any sort. Right now, though, I would suggest that YOU go with your heart and if you have developed a 'hi and bye' relationship, so be it. if you have a 'come on in for coffee' relationship, you might let him know that YOU are aware of his record. It may be awkward to suddenly shut him down if you have him as your neighbor and you are friendly. Use your heart and don't fall victim to the emotions of others. Use YOUR best judgement.
Tough position to be in. As Gracie said, I am sorry.
All the best.....

Checking out some of the addresses on the list was an eye opener. What a cross section geographically.
