For example:

Is not entrapment

Are you sure about this? Because I know if the conversation goes:

- Officer: Can I buy some crack?
- Defendant: Sure!

That does count as entrapment and it cannot be used to gain a conviction. Basically, I think the only justification they have is that an outside group is contacting the men and not the police, but overall I think the whole thing's on real shaky ground.

Honestly, I think they should just discontinue the whole thing. The men never committed any real crime since they were actually talking to adults the whole time and I think at least some of them were just bored lonely guys who would have never actually done anything like this if they hadn't been aggressively approached by these Perverted Justice people.

Besides, ultimately locking these guys up does nothing. If there's a slutty 13 yr. old out there that's looking for an older guy to bring home and have sex with, she's going to find one eventually, and if there's not, then there won't be anything to worry about.
