Missouri has always been known as the “Show Me State”, all thanks to the expression of Congressman Willard Duncan Vandiver’s expression, “I’m from Missouri and you’ve got to show me.”
Although this is something that set’s Missouri apart from all 50 states, it is still not an exception from the existence of sex offenders, a national and worldwide problem. Another known fact is that these individual are a little difficult to tell apart from the rest of the people, which is why many registries and databases are offered to aid us in doing so, as a safety measure.
Then again the safety and security of a person and his/her family all comes down to what they decide to do about it. They can take a great risk and do nothing, or they can “Show them” sex offenders not to mess with them.
