To Catch A Predator Sting gone bad

Do you think this might stop this Hollywoodized Entrapment show?

http://blogs.abcnews.com/theblotter/...ch-a-pred.html

Sure, pedo's are scum and deserve what they get; but it seems to me that they go too far for entertainment purposes.

I have a question though....

what if the "predator" is a man that is a preacher or motivational speaker and he pretends to lust after a 14 year old online. But his intentions are to go to the house and make sure the girl never trusts an adult to interact with her like that?

Just as Chris Hanson and crew are "pretending" to be a 14 year old girl that goes along with ANYTHING. And when the predator comes over, the girl asks each guy if they have condoms. Not the guy, most of these dirtbags would bring it up in a minute or two ....... but she beats him to it almost every time. Just saying that they are doing the same thing kind of and egging on eachother. I think it is possible for the TV to send a stupid but innocent guy to jail sooner or later.


lmao at the 37 year Asian dude who fell into the table.

lmfao at the cops hidding behind walls and bushes and jumping out for dramatic effect. Why wouldnt they just stand there.?

I was hoping they would bust summersalts and sh!t before they handcuffed them lol

They play the Internet game like its real life - as if everyone in a chat room (or a sports forum) represents who they really are... The Internet is and always will be Fantasy Land. I'm not going to say I'm glad this happened, but something like it was bound to happen eventually. I would have rather seen someone stab Hansen right in the f*cking eye though....

Heavy smug alert over Chris Hansen's house - holier than thou f*ckwad

You know, I'd be misrepresenting myself on the Internet if I didn't say it, but a small part of me was hoping that was the case when I started reading this story.... horrible thoughts, I know....
Time for some spirits...

nah, "hoping" is not what I was feeling - that's too evil even for me... More like "anticipating"

I understand that, but at the same time they are chatting the guys up to get them there; its different from the pervert at the park pouncing on the innocent little girls. These girls that they are representing are far from innocent.

The girls go online looking for that shit too...
Don't get me wrong, I'm not defending the pedos; just saying that this is entrapment for entertainment purposes. They don't give a flying f*ck about saving innocent children - they just want to sell air time... all about the ratings. And now someone is dead. Way to go Dateline.

Hey, didn't Dateline rig a car or SUV with an explosive years ago or something to demonstrate the fact that they blow up under some sort of condition? (I don't remember and I've been drinking, but something like that happened)

I dislike entrapment on many levels

I mentioned this before but there is a COPS episode where they leave a truck full of electronics in the hood and what for underprivileged youth to take the bait.

I hate that crap

Of course they are going to rob a truck fool of goods
