TV: Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator

[amead]

Interesting stuff. If you're not down with the creepy dudes on the intarweb showing their pork to 13 year old girls, check out http://www.perverted-justice.com

One of their admins, Del Harvey (the female on the team during the Dateline shows) is a friend of mine that I actually got turned on to that site.

They do some real good work, gratis, as these slime buckets are completely and totally not gouda.

Edit: Hopefully this doesn't violate any forum rules linking this. It's actually a real good public service type of thing. Get involved if you aren't down with that stuff. It'll make you feel warm and happy inside while you're taking a break from multitabling.

One of the older shows, they busted a dude who worked for Homeland Security.

I'm pretty sure it was Tom Ridge.

Is there any sane person in the world who doesn't think all these guys should be castrated upon conviction?

Pretty much what I said out loud when I saw the preview. It seems that's how Dateline/Law Enforcement reacted as well.

Tune in next Wednesday night for the trainwreck!

I would be in favor of much worse than that, but it's a good start.

What's scary is the number of predators the show is snagging in just one week, one town, in one county, in one state....... [img]/images/graemlins/shocked.gif[/img]

What are the odds someone from OOT gets busted on this? I guess since half the people on here are under 18, the odds go down a lot.

Since this requires the perp to leave his house, the odds continue to slide.

Since "all these guys" probably lumps a lot of garden-variety pervs looking to pick up high school girls together with genuinely sick and dangerous child abductors, I'd object, yes.
