If you mean living in Floriday is gross, I agree, it would be (I don't
even like to visit). If you mean it is gross that they are arresting
pedophiles in an area you used to live in, then I disagree...it is good
that they are getting them.
At any rate, that show is scary, isn't it?

They aren't arresting pedophiles. They are entrapping people who have some
pedophile tendencies and destroying them so the police in some small town can
get on TV.
It's all bullshit.
Just look at how they effect the arrests. Guns drawn, get on the ground, big
production. They didn't think the people were dangerous just seconds before
when in the house? Why pretend they are dangerous just when the cops are on
camara and can show how tough and brave they are?
Do you really think the internet is full of 13 year old girls as easily
approachable as their bait? I don't really think so.
Are these guys they arrest problems? Yes, obviously? Are they a danger to
anyone other than themselves? I never seen any evidence of that.

Well, yes, but probably not in the way you mean it. The scary part is how these
cops behave and how we demonize people who havn't harmed anybody but clearly
need help.

You're right. They should empty the jails of all poor grown men
trying to have sex with young girls so they can make room for priests,
S.W.A.T. team members and other evil dangers to society.
Clearly need help?
65 yo man: It would be great if you would give me oral sex.
(alleged) 13 yo girl: i don't know how.
65 yo creep: I'll show you.
Show: why did you say that?
65 yo loser: I don't know.
Show: would you have had sex with the girl?
65 yo fuckhead: I don't know, maybe not.
I'm sorry Gary, he needs more than help, he needs bubba fucking him in the
ass every day for the rest of his life.

Actually, although it's apparent I am no master of the English language, I
meant it's gross that I was/am living so close to people like that. I am
certainly glad they are arresting them. Most of themdrove hours here from
other areas. It amazes me that all these guys seem to be aware of the
show, yet take the chance anyway. That are that derranged. Very scary.

yeah, i mean the drunk driver hasn't harmed anyone til he wipes out

damn cops

ATTICA!! ATTICA!! ATTICA!!
I agree, they clearly need help. This is the first time I've watched this
show. It's definitely entrapment. But if a guy is gonna drive 4 hours to
have sex with a 13 year old, even after watching/being aware of the
Dateline investigation, they need to be off the streets. While I think
the cops and Dateline are being a bit prefatory themselves, if the show
helps keep even some of these sickos from having sex with 13 year olds,
it's ok with me.

Sure.
But where's the evidence that any of these clowns either ever have or ever will
have sex with a 13 year old.
Do you know what the most frequent female fantasy is? It's a rape fantasy.
These men have fantasies about young girls. The same arguements that it's okay
to feed their fantasies works as an arguement that rape isn't a crime because
they fantasize about it anyway, rape just gives them what they want.
This Dateline shit does nothing but get cops on TV to prove how big and brave
they are. It's certainly not protecting any 13 year old girls.

How many of these guys have ever acting on their fantasies before? It's pretty
clear from watching these shows that 95% or more never have. I think most of
them never will.
Think about the corrallary with the fantasies of these guys and the typical
womens rape fantasy. One of them we say a fantasy does not mean a desire to act
on it, in the other case we say a fantasy does mean a desire o act on it.
Why don't we decide which way that works, then proceed.

But they shouldn't even be fantasizing about that shit. It ain't normal.
You would think that with our advanced technology these days that we could
somehow monitor and determine when people are fantasizing that sick shit and
then we could be proactive and arrest them before they have a chance to do
anything. People don't have a constitutional right to think about that kind
of sick shit.
Seriously. They need to be humanely and compassionately strung up.
-Paul Popinjay
I think the law already did decide, if you make the effort to actually
drive to a 13 year old's home to 'fantasize', then you've showed enough
intent to be arrested. I agree with them.

Hell Hellmouth might try it just to get more air time LOL.
As far as living near them I will be you $1000 right now there are at least 10
convicted predators living within 5 miles of your home (that is if there are at
least 10000 people in that area.)
The one thing you should know for sure is that what you're being told is phony
and false.
You should know that based on how the cops draw their guns and put them on the
ground when they make an arrest. There is no reason to do that if they aren't
dangerious and we know they don't really think they are dangerous because they
let Dateline do the interviews in the house before the arrest.
If they'll lie to you about the danger of these people, then it's a good bet
they are lying about the rest.
I dont' mean they make it all up and it didn't happen, but it's really clear
that the situation is being misrepresented.
They are taking weak, troubled people and manipulating them into TV ratings. I
don't like my government taking part in that kind of behavior. And I don't
trust people who behave that way and try to con me.

Yeah but when does the Flagler Beach PD ever get to model their
bitchin black paramilitary gear?
By the way, they are technically not considered pedophiles because the
decoy victim would have been 13 years or older.
I agree with Gary that the arrests are totally overblown, and may have
cost a man his life. I doubt they had that much firepower when the
cops arrested Michael J. Devlin.
Ken
I don't argue that point, I'm sure they are dramatizing it for TV
ratings, but so what? And if by making it look scary as hell that
prevents some scumbag from showing up at a little girl's house, then
great, I'm all for it.

There are clear rules about entrapment, it's not OK to trap someone into
doing something they would not normally be willing to do, but it is OK
to offer the opportunity to someone who is already predisposed to commit
the crime. If the 'weak, troubled' person wants to sit home and
fantasize about being with a 13 year old then that's his own personal
issue to deal with, but that is a far cry from actually making a date,
actually getting in his car, actually arriving at the house, actually
getting out of the car, actually approaching the victim, and actually
entering the house. Now it might well be that if the police and/or TV
host didn't intercept at that point that the guy might chicken out, but
it's also quite likely that with very little encouragement from the
little girl he could follow through with the statutory rape. But that's
for the jury to decide. And of the two or three shows I watched,
several of the rapists admitted to having done this several times before.
I don't disapprove of the police using deceptive means, as long as they
stay within the law, to capture people who are harmful to society.

It's likely that nothing would have ever happened at all, starting with the
internet chats, if it wasn't for Dateline and some small town police department.

I can tell you have a very strong opinion of cops, and it's not a good one so I
won't argue with you on that point.
The other point is that they committed a Felony, it is unknown if they are
armed, so they take the necessary precautions. If you don't think they have
cops with guns out and ready behind those walls, you are wrong. They are ready
for anything and everything, that's why they the decoy runs out of the room so
quickly.
I can tell you that many many more people than you would imagine end up armed
when I do undercover prostitution busts.
So yes, in your eyes, having guns out is overkill. But in reality, the one time
we do take down criminals and wait to pull the guns out and allow them that
split second, we are the ones that die, or your family members that are
innocently standing by.
On the other topic of the criminals not doing the crime without the illegal
bait, it happens in everything these days. Kids walking into liquor stores, us
selling dope to people, us buying dope from people, us offering sex, us buying
sex, etc. None of it would be there if we didn't offer it. So it's just part
of the never ending cycle.
I miss the ol' RGP days. Haven't posted much in years.
Hope all is well.

If they are showing them before they have actually been convicted then I
100% agree with you, if they have already been convicted based on the
evidence (which I am assuming is the case) then why should I feel sorry
for them? And why would you? If their argument during the TV interview
was that they were there to talk to some sense into the kid then they'd
probably have a pretty good case, but that's not what they usually say,
they usually admit they were there for sex, or to see where the meeting
would lead. Are you also against the common police technique of using a
hidden microphone (a wire) to get the criminal to admit to the crime?
> There is no victim. There is no 13 year old.
I understand that, but it's all about intent. If I see someone sleeping
and I shoot them in the head just for fun, but then it turns out they
weren't sleeping, they were already dead, do you still want me free to
roam around the streets?
> It's likely that nothing would have ever happened at all, starting with the

I readily admit I haven't researched it, do you have statistics that
show that these sexual predators are few and far between and that these
meetings would never take place without coercion, or is there evidence
to show that this is a fairly common problem?
>> I don't disapprove of the police using deceptive means, as long as they

What a crock of shit. Guys from their 20s to their 60s think they're talking to
a 13 year old and send them pictures of themselves masturbating while talking to
them. They tell the 13 year olds that they want to lick them allover, eat their
snatch and fuck them in the ass. They have shown up with weed, drugs, rope,
handcuffs, guns, tape, lubricant, condoms, etc. after driving 100s of miles to
get to them and YOU think they're 'innocent' 'troubled' people.... LOL

Bullshit!
They have arrested some that already had a record.
At one level it is entrapment depending on the state where it takes place but in
most states the intent is all that is needed.
Anything that gets these sick people off the streets is fine in my book.
You stand there and defend these turds because she was not really under 18
bullshit. These low lifes felt she was and their intent to do harm was clear.
by defending this scum you make yourself almost equal to them. One thing to
joke on line but it is a BIG deal when they get in their cars and drive to a
meeting spot. The follow thru says tons.
Also you have no flipping idea what it is like for the people that have lost a
child due to the actions of these sick types out there so many you should keep
your mouth shut and stop defending them!
I see the results the death of one child at the hands of one of these sick
predators each day. I know what it is to try and comfort a mother that lost a
small child more than 30 years ago but still has nightmares almost every night.
In my book anyone convicted above a level 1 offense should be locked away
forever. Simple fact level 2 and level 3 offenders repeat their crimes at
almost a 100% rate. The average number of victims for a level 2 is over 50
children and a level 3 over 100 children.
In other words GARY get your head out of your ass and fight to protect the
children not the predtors!
I was just reading this morning's New Orlean's newspaper and ran across this
story of one of your 'innocent' troubled' sex perverts:

This seems like a straw man argument. Most of the people caught in
these stings are not necessarily violent like you describe. I think
Gary would argue that a better use of law enforcement resources would
be to spend time trying to catch the violent type of offenders, the
very ones you are talking about. The only problem is it's more
difficult to predict who will commit these crimes and when these types
of crimes will occur.
I don't have a problem with the show (with the exception of the laws
in Texas and the show where the guy killed himself), but relative to
the danger to society, they seem to have too many resources to arrest
one guy at a time.

The reality is police behavior creates violent situations. Creating violence is
policy in US police tactics.
The routine use of SWAT dynamic entry is just ignorant and causes many, many
unneeded death of cops, innoncent people, and a very few bad guys. Just the use
of the term dynamic entry to describe what's essentially a home invasion is a
from of misrepresentation.
The cops on dateline are intentionally misrepresenting the danger these guys
present and they're doing it for a combination of political and ego reasons.
Their representation of realility simply can't be trusted or beleived.
Although I like you, I don't trust any of you sonsofbitches.

Gary's a cop hater and a criminal lover. I've had the pleasure of
exchanging comments in many different threads here with Gary and off the top
of my head he has defended the people who poison our country cooking meth,
and has pretty much said that most people in prison are non-violent and
should not be incarcerated. I kid you NOT. These are positions that Gary
has taken. I asked him before, if he thinks we have a bunch of hippies
locked up in our prison system who are there for possession of an empty
bong? Hardly. A person does not go to prison, not in California anyway,
for minor drug offenses. Every single one of these assholes in our prison
system has a long history of doing shit, and getting your ass thrown in the
California adult prison system is the result of doing some serious
'anti-social' shit, over and over, not just once. And in my opinion, 90+%
of them are violent.
Gary wants less prisons. I say we need MORE prisons. Why? I'll tell you
why. Because a lot of people are just no fucking good and belong in prison.
That's why.
-Paul Popinjay
Oh, yeah. We already lock up more of our citizens than anybody else in the
world and we still need more prisons. Obviously that's the solution to all our
problems. More prisons, less people.

Maybe they should change their fantasy to banging two women (of legal age)

No.
I think we should destroy however many lives we need to so you'll feel safe.
How many of those victimized 13 year olds have been victimized by the guys you
see on TV? Since they seldom talk about any of them having prior histories it
would be a good bet the number is very few.
But it's the American way to send 100 people to prison becuase 1 of them might
be a bad person.

So according to your definition of entrapment everytime you get a
ticket for speeding you are being entrapped because the cop has the
radar gun pointed at your car? Destroying them yes; which, if it
saves a few kids from being molested by the guy then that is just what
they have to do. I agree they are sick and need help, but I do not
give a shit WHO it is if someone showed up at my house after
soliciting a kid of mine online you better believe he would wish the
police were there to "get on tv".

WHO CARES how they arrest the guy? Let me guess you get upset when
you see the video of cops getting rough with someone when they refuse
to listen to the police(who by the way for the most part ARE there to
serve and protect)

How do you KNOW they have never harmed anyone? Did you do a backround
on these guys they arrested? Do you know them personally? And we did
not DEMONIZE? them they did that to themselves. Yes they need help,
but does that mean we let them do whatever they want while we try to
help them? Where is that persons family? Maybe they should take some
responsibility and try and help their family member. Why is it OUR
problem to "take care" of these creeps?
DAMN gc I really hope you are just trying to inflame people with these
posts.
BRAVO Pual finally a thread we both strongly agree on.
Where's the evidence that a drunk driver ever has or ever will injur/

HOLY SHIT what a bunch of damned whackos. How do you argue with
someone who is delusional?
Carson's argument:
"These poor guys haven't done anything wrong. Well, if they did do
anything wrong then it's still OK because I don't like cops, and
someone is exploiting the arrests for T.V. ratings."
I do agree it is way over done, but I had my 12 year old son watch it
just to prove to him that sickos are out there and he needs to be
careful, and I am not just being an overprotective parent, saying
scary things.
If it scares a few kids into being suspicious, or even scares the
pedophiles away from soliciting some of them, I am not willing to
totally write it off as worthless.
What freedoms has the government taken away from us? And before you
get all crazy and turn this into a war thread (which I am sure is your
intention all along) I HAVE read the freedom act.

If they'll misrepresent one part they'll misrepresent any of it.

RecGroups : the community-oriented newsreader : www.recgroups.com
Look at what's happened with DWI laws.
The really bad accidents are almost all caused by really bad drunks, with BAC's
on the order of .16
To combat that we lowered the BAC for a presumption of guilt to .08 from 10.
Attack the people who aren't causing the problem.
Presumptive evidence means that if you are .08 you are presumed to be drunk.
Theoretially you could still be acquitted if you could prove you had complete
control of the vehicle.
So, we changed the DWI laws to just be a violation (not presumptive) if you're
08. That means that being .08 is enough to convict, even if you can prove you
aren't drunk at that level.
So, MADD, and your government, made you afriad of the people causing problems,
the ones with .16 or more BAC, really drunk.
They used that fear to end up imprisoning people who really weren't causing any
problems, those that really just had a couple of beers.
So we fill up our prisons, even build some more, and nothings been done to
address the real problems.
When I was 18 you could drink a beer when driving in Lousisana or Texas (21 in
Texas, 18 in LA). You couldn't drive drunk, but you could drink one beer.
Today you can end up in prison for opening a beer can while driving.
Whats the point of sending people to prison for drunk driving when they aren't
drunk and we know they aren't drunk?
That's just one area. Do your homework. Look up things like the 4th amendment.

that crosses the lines as far as entrapment goes. That is something

guys contact the kids, but if gc does not believe that then their is

You would be VERY surprised gc. Girls mature faster than boys so when
the boys are still wanting to play GI Joes or watch cartoons girls are
thinking man these kids are ..... well kids. And start listening in
on the adult conversations and taking part in them and wishing they
could talk to someone who is older who "gets" them. I have 11 nieces
and nephews and believe me I have seen this happen.

Actually, that's the motto. But if you ever try to sue a ;police agency for

Just because someone was molested by a creep does not mean they were molested by
anyone similar to the ones you see on TV.
You're just assuming that because officer numnuts asserts it.
The bait wants the guys to come over, and they'll behave accordingly. I doubt
that the typical 13 year old will behave in the same way and it's likely that if
these guys were to approach a real 13 year old they'd strike out.
Don't you remember all those day care prosecutions with the tunnels and
spaceships and fucking nonsense? Many people went to prison based on
manufactured testimony from children who had been couched by weak minded,
frightened counselers with vivid imainations. Many innocent people.
We really should be careful with this stuff.

What have you done to close down the Catholic Church?
They have molested more children, actual children, then the total make
molestations on Dateline. And, the Church hid the molestors for decades.
Why aren't you yelling to put the entire church hierchacy in ;prison? Tell me
why.
It's because you're an easily swayed hypocrite.

Yeah well too bad! I like to have a few drinks (well maybe more than
a few) and go out and have some fun. And there were times when I was
younger I had no business driving and got pulled over a few times and
never got in trouble. That was when I was YOUNG and STUPID. If I go
out now with the intention of having a good time and drinking I take a
cab! Bottom line. I take a cab. How is that taking away my
freedoms? The freedom to drive around while drunk, well you know what
I NEVER liked that freedom even when I had it.
This thread HAS NOTHING to do with DWI, DUI or murder (which by the
way was not illegal like 200 years ago and I have a feeling that it
was a good law to put into effect)
The fact of the matter gc is that we as a society are evolving and it
seems like you do not like this evolution-too bad. Laws need to be
made and enforced to help keep society civil and to grow that society
into something better than what it is.
This thread is about protecting our children from sickos who now have
a HUGE platform in the internet to solicit these kids and take
advantage of them bottom line.
I have done nothing. Just like I have done nothing to imprison the
guys on dateline.
And I Hope the Catholic Church is next! I do not believe in organized
religion and am STRONGLY opposed to the way things are handled with
the priests and such. It apalls me, but like the guy that right now
is probably sitting online trying to find a 13 year old to fuck I can
do nothing about that just like I can do nothing about the priest who
right now is probably feeling up some altar boys leg, but agree
something needs to be done about that as well. If the church has so
much influence over the media or whatever agencies are responsible for
making arrests, inqueries etc then I will take what I can get, which
right now is the creeps who are using the internet to try and have sex
with a 13 year old.
Hopefully the church is next!
Your whole reasoning behind defending these perverts is because the show is
misleading you into thinking that they are horrible, dangerous people, which
you've said they aren't. Perhaps if you had watched the whole episode, you
would have seen that in the preview for next week, one of these "victims" that
they're portraying as a monster, came loaded with several firearms in his car.
Not his fault though. Dateline made him do it. Seriously, you've backed up
into a wall. There's no shame in admitting that you don't have a damn clue what
you're talking about. Regardless, you've got to be pretty fucking pathetic to
try and defend these people and perhaps without realising it, you're siding with
child predators over the people that help to catch them. I wonder if your
attitude would be different if you had a daughter.
What we really need is a show outside rehab clinic and have a pusher
pushing 'fake meth'. When the addicts inside bite we send in the swat
team to take them down. That would be much better TV.
How many soldiers have we sent to their death to get Saddam???

They're not dangerous before hand because they think everything is
fine. But after they realize they're going to be on national
television and have their lives ruined, well I think there should be
cause for concern. You can never be sure what someone will do when
they feel like they have nothing to lose. I'm just waiting for one of
these pervs to go apeshit on the host. lolol. What an awesome show.
I also love how they go for maximum embarrassment factor and bring not
just 1 camera man out, but like 10 dudes from every nook and cranny of
the house to shove a boom mic and 50 cameras in the guy's face despite
the fact they already have perfect audio and video of the whole thing.

Wait a sec, Gary.
If the woman tells a man her fantasy and arranges a meeting with that
man for the expressed purpose of living out that fantasy, that DOES
indicate a desire to act on the fantasy.
Back in the 80s I remember a case where that very thing happened, only
once they got started she apparently changed her mind. The guy
continued on with the fantasy, believing she was role playing.

It is the solution as long as people increasingly commit felonies. Don't
blame society. Don't blame the police. People need to accept and display
individual responsibility. You do a felony, you walk the yard. Plain and

Cop out. People are getting crazier and crazier all the time, and you know
it. I'm sure that decades and decades of the liberal's attack on our moral
standards and the atheists' war against God, is at the root cause. I'll

Are you suggesting he would act differently if he met an actual 13 year
old online and not one of the decoys?
You do realize teenagers at the age of 13 & 14 are very curious sexually
and are out there in internet chat rooms looking for answers. Is the
internet full of 13 year old girls as approachable as the shows bait? Not
full but they are out there and they are curious about sex. You say that
you really don't think so. Well if that were the case and all that were
out there are cops and TV shows posing as decoys, the perverts wouldn't be
cruising around chat rooms looking to lure in underage teens. Without
enough real 13 year olds to prey upon, there would be no incentive. Some
of these idiots even know about all the stings and the Dateline show. But
they still go out fishing for underage teens? Please explain why they
would do that if there were not enough real teens out there to fulfill
their perverted fantasy.
Yes, the cops doing the arrests are macho idiots. Do they hype up the
arrests for TV? Probably. Is that the reason for the Dateline show and
the sting operation? To allow small town cops be heroes on National TV?
I seriously doubt it. There are many other non-televised internet sex
predator sting operations going on right now in this country. What is
their motive?
Entrapment? Give me a break, Gary. They run these stings all over the
country. Don't you think maybe one judge might look at this and raise the
red warning flag if it were entrapment. Or are the judges in on it too in
order to get the local cops on TV?

Yeah, comparing civil rights infringments with laws prohibiting sex
with minors makes a brilliant point.
If you're able to discern an actual coherent point among Carson's
ramblings here then my hat's off to you.

How many of them were doing 8 balls with 13 year-olds they were trying
to bone?
You could start by reading your question and Susan's answer.
You asked "How many soldiers have we sent to their death to get
Saddam???"
It appears that Susan read it as, "How many soldiers have we sent to
their death to get Saddam who didn't volunteer?", because that is the
question she answered.
The correct answer to your question is, None who didn't voluteer to do
so if it was asked of them.

If it were entrapment, the courts would be all over this like stink on
shit.
If a cop dresses up like a hooker in order to get guys to offer them money
for sex, is that entrapment? That's about the extent of what the cops are
doing here. They are not offering sex to any guy in the chat room. They
are making themself available for chat just as a cop dressing up as a
hooker would. If the decoys were making the offers to give sex, the
courts would throw out these cases and the DA would probably be brought in
to file charges against the third party company, Perverted Justice and
even Dateline for their actions.

The .08 is completely arbitrary and I agree with Gary. I know people that
could kill someone driving if they only have a beer or two. People that
drink every day build a tolerance. Police sponsored roadblocks do not
save lives. They simply generate revenue.
You people crack me up. You're all about protecting the kids. Who's
letting them have unrestricted and unmonitored access to the
computer? Most 13 year olds don't have a job, therefore they can't
afford a computer, therefore they can't be lured online by some sicko
unless they are given access by their parents or at school. Also,
most child molesting is done by someone the child knows beforehand,
either by a family member or friend. While it's no great loss to have
the people on Dateline's show off the street, you're kidding yourself
if you think that makes a dent in the number of victimized children.
Most legal limits are arbitrary to one degree or another. Age limits
for things like driver's licenses and such don't comprehend each and
every individual's level of intelligence, experience, maturity, etc.
But for a law to be useful, some number has to be picked that is
deemed to be a balance between effectiveness and lack of over-
regulation.

Unfortunately you can't base useful laws on personal anecdotes and
individual experience.

That's a pretty sweeping generalization. Are you asserting that
catching a drunk driver at a roadblock, and taking him off the street,
does nothing to prevent him/her from killing/injuring someone? If so
then you're going to have a hard time squaring that with the
statistics for traffic deaths/injuries caused by intoxicated motorists.
Sorry. I guess my attempt at some minor (pun intended) humor there
was less than obvious.

Yeah, they had some coke in their pocket when they were nabbed for robbing a
convenience store and pistol whipping the clerk. Sorry, Raider Fan, but
here in California they do not send people to prison for 20 years for merely
having some coke in their pocket. If they go to prison, it's because
they've already done a whole bunch of anti-social shit, as I stated
elsewhere in this thread. Our prisons are filled to the brim, and it's not
the lawmakers' fault that scumbag troublemakers get caught and go to prison.
I say we need to build more prisons. And if there is an overcrowding
emergency then we need to consider what I have also recommended elsewhere on
this newsgroup. That would be a new and improved electric chair, that seats
FIVE. I recommend the Popinjay Model #5 (patent pending) which should be
available soon at my soon to be running website, "felons-a-sizzling.com".

The roadblocks maily catch legally drunk drivers that would not have been
caught under normal circumstances. This is because they are .08 or higher
but not noticeably impaired. Rather than tie up personnel in a roadblock,
why not have them patrol and look for noticeably impaired drivers? They
aren't hard to find, and then the police are potentially saving lives.
I'll answer the question. It's more efficient (revenue versus expense) to
set up a road block.

World's Leading Jailer: U.S.
The United States has a larger percentage of its population in prison
than any country on Earth. Over 1.7 million human beings languish
behind bars. WELL OVER SIXTY PERCENT OF FEDERAL PRISONERS, AND A
SIGNIFICANT FRANCTION OF STATE AND LOCAL PRISONERS, ARE NON-VIOLENT
DRUG OFFENDERS, MOSTLY FIRST TIME OFFENDERS. Due to the War on Drugs,
we have become the world's leading jailer. 1 out of 35 Americans is
under the control of the Criminal Justice System. If present
incarceration rates hold steady, 1 out of 20 Americans, 1 out of 11
men, and 1 out of 4 Black men in this country today can expect to
spend some part of their life in prison.

Beside the idiot cops outside with their takedown tactics, what are they
misrepresenting? Are they misquoting the chat logs? Are they putting
condoms in their pockets.
Let me guess, the asst. DA that killed himself on the show last week, it

You're assuming that an intoxicated driver has to be "noticeably"
impaired in order to represent a serious risk. That's simply not
true.
> They aren't hard to find, and then the police are potentially saving lives.
You're saying that the public should only be protected from dangers
that are easy to spot? That's a weak argument.

Now you're changing your claim. Originally you said that the
roadblocks don't save lives. Now you've abandoned that and are basing
your argument on resourse utilization. How many cops do you typically
see manning a single roadblock? I've never seen more than a handful.
Certainly not enough to make even a noticable dent in the total on-
patrol force in a city of any real size.
Might not make a dent but that doesn't mean you stop trying. People
are ALWAYS going to find reasons to kill wach other, but that doesn't
mean you stop convicting them or going after them.
I agree parents need to be more involved and need to understand this
happens online more than they probably know which is another good side
effect of the show. Parents see it and hopefully will keep a better
eye on what there kids are doing online.
Another thing is that they may not trully understand the harm a kid
can get into on the computer plus they are quite when they are online
which gives the parents time to relax (I am not saying I agree though
I do not have kids)
Well, obviously, this is just because Americans are the worst people on
Earth. Uh, wait. . .
Unrestricted/unmonitored internet access for kids is certainly ill-
advised. But are you suggesting that parents/schools are the problem,
and aspiring child molesters aren't?
> Also, most child molesting is done by someone the child knows beforehand,

And...?

How many children does it need to protect in order to be a good thing?
You tried inflaming me in another post where you called me a pussy.
Now all of a sudden you attack me on this issue which I would think
just about everyone should agree on.
Of course I express outrage at someone saying that the guys who seek
out teenage girls online to have sex with is not a big deal and it is
all because of the TV and some cops in a hick town to get on TV.
Why would I sit back and either not say anything or agree with that
crazy logic? I think I read a couple of your earlier posts on this
subject and thought you pretty much agreed with my stance on it. Why
would you try and turn it around on me? I don't get it. Oh well.
And the day we STOP thriving for a perfect world is the day the world
ends.

I'll bite one more time just in case you're actually serious. Only half
of the prison population is there for violent crime. That's half of over
2 million people in prison. Here's the link:

The point is they're not actually doing something that reduces the
number of victimized kids. The kind of guys who fall into this trap
aren't exactly the type to get away with their intended crimes. I
doubt most predators are stupid enough to participate in chat, leaving
logs full of incriminating statements.

That's a big part of the problem, using the TV or Internet as a
babysitter. But a bigger problem is the way everyone tells kids to
beware of strangers, while at the same time telling them to be nice to
Uncle Ernie or to trust Father John at the church or kindly old Mr.
Smith down the street. Arlo's post was the closest to the target when
he said he was willing to bet that chimp had a hundred or more sex
offenders living within 5 miles and here she is scared out of her wits
that Dateline ran a sting 15 miles away. The bad thing about a show
like Dateline doing what they're doing is that it allows people to
delude themselves into thinking the bad guys are getting put away, and
their family is safe. I personally know four women that were molested
repeatedly as kids or teenagers. All four were by family members.
But at least Dateline kept some Internet pervert away from them.

Why is that weak? Driver A is crossing the yellow line, running stop
signs/red lights, and speeding. Driver B is .08 but not violatiing any
traffic laws or showing any sign of impairment. I contend we're all
better off getting Driver A off the street.

I haven't changed anything. I said the purpose was to generate revenue.
Where on that page did you see only half of over 2 million inmates
were there for violent crimes? The 2 million prison population is
Federal. State and local. The 52% violent was specific to state
inmates (650K violent offense ate prisoners).
Those are interesting stats. Since they thought it important to report
the number of black, hispanic and white male prison inmates per
100,000 black, hispanic and white males in the US, it would be
interesting to know the what % of those 2.19 million prisoners were
black, hispanic and white, and what % of the violent offenders were
black, hispanic or white. Same stats desired for property, drug and
public order offenders.
Partial stats aren't nearly as useful at putting things in perspective
as complete stats are.
No child under about 15 should have unsupervised access to the
internet. Computers used by children in the home should be placed in
common areas without privacy.
