So much is happening to our children in today's world. Education areas teaching inappropriate, political, ideology. Drag queens invited to schools. Porn easily available on social media. I do not believe God is pleased with the innocent being treated so.

That's not saying much. I doubt God was pleased with.chattel slavery or nearly wiping out the natives, but here we are.

Always has, some of us have been aware of it for a while.

Education areas teaching inappropriate, political, ideology.
Examples? Based on the rest of your points I would think it is a caring open to everyone ideology.

Drag queens invited to schools.
I don't have a problem with that, an in the right environment it can be educational.

Porn easily available on social media.
This has been the case since the 90's. The best defense is talking to your kids, getting involved in their online life and setting safety rules.

The innocent has always been in danger. We do disagree on what is the danger.

THERE IS NO "RIGHT" ENVIRONMENT FOR SUCH AS THAT IN ANY EDUCATIONAL SITUATION.

Mark 10:13-16: Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.'"

Matthew 18:2-6

6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

Anyone hurting a child will be punished by the Creator God.

confessions are anonymous, and someone who is a predator isn’t going to confess anyway, that’s counterproductive. That bill is just an attack on the faithful.
I'm sure a voice can be recognized. And I'm sure predators, that don't think, that they did any thing wrong will brag about it. This bill happenend for a reason.

Again, how would they know who confesses it? It’s a moot point.
As soon as they confess go out and confront them. Boom. Caught a diddler- go to police. Done.

It will be around no matter how much you crack down on it or make it illegal. It is better to teach children to report it, talk about it with parents, and learn how to navigate around it.

Denying it and banning it does not address the issue. It is up to parents to be involved in their child's online activities and give guidance when needed.

Porn will always be there. But how we teach our children how to handle it is what can lessen its effect on them.

It’s still an attack against the faithful since confession as a sacrament is anonymous.

It won’t pass in SCOTUS regardless

So much for anonymous confession.
If it’s outside the context of the sacrament, it’s no longer anonymous, you know? Then it’s public.

The situation described, that you said you were not opposed to, involved confronting them just outside the confessional. That would require the confessor being involved.

Yes, but the actual sacrament is already finished. Therefore, it’s no longer part of confession. That tiny difference makes all the difference.

I will further add, I doubt predators will confess in the first place because they don’t think they’re doing anything wrong, but that’s just my viewpoint.

No one is talking of bugging the priest's sin confessing closet.

It's ok so long as they step outside after hearing the confession and confront them over what they just heard? What then is the issue with mandatory reporting? It would take place outside the confessional.
