"to be sure, protecting society from violent sexual offenders is certainly an important end. Sexual abuse is a despicable act with untold consequences for the victim personally and society generally. … But the Constitution does not vest in Congress the authority to protect society from every bad act that might befall it."Traditional intellectual conservatism. Weak on crime, strong on rights. You can't be jailed for something you might do, you can only be jailed for something you have DONE.
(Unless there are CIA/FBI spies who watch you plan to do something bad...that's different)
