To Catch a Predator
« on: July 21, 2007, 11:06:25 PM »
My favorite show on television is having a marathon on MSNBC tonight.

Christopher Hansen, you are my hero. Saving children from internet predators, one horny pervert at a time. Your witty one-liners and epic "popping out of the woodworks" make me smile and happy inside.

Some great quotes from tonight:

INTERNET PERV (from chat): I'm using my noodle so that later on, you can you my OTHER noodle!

[internet perv sits down and eats cookies on table]
CHRIS HANSEN (popping out from behind the wall): Would you like some milk with those cookies?

DECOY GIRL (to perv): I have a surprize for you!
INTERNET PERV: Oh hoho!
CHRIS HANSEN (popping out from behind the wall): I guess I'm not the surprize you were hoping for!!

I still like the episode with the guy they catch again at McDonald's the next day. Though even better is the one with the asian guy who tells the decoy her house is decorated like a restaurant and told her ' I would touching you all over ' (I can't help it, I'm an engrish.com fan, so I had to laugh at him saying that)

Didja hear the one about the perv who got caught, who turned out to be a big-shot politician from the next town over, who was so embarrassed that he killed himself, and whose family is now suing NBC?  (And, of course, the cops and prosecutors who cooperated in the setup are suddenly distancing themselves from the show.)

Really?
After the first two shows I was sick of it.  Why do they have to keep airing this as television, instead of just doing it to catch criminals?

I love this show. Especially when predators see him and are like OH FUCK I KNOW WHO HE IS!

It's nice that they're catching people, but it's sick to turn it into entertainment and to sit around and relish in the anguish of others, whether they're fucking pervs or not. Imagine yourself walking into some shit like that; then imagine millions of people laughing at you. I can't sympathize, but I can empathize, and it keeps me from lighting my mob torch.

Dear To Catch A Predator, I have missed you so. It is pretty disturbing, but sometimes its hard to believe it's real.

I really enjoyed the one with the guy who's screename was something along the lines of CanIRapeYouAnally. Those idiots.

What would they do if a minor solicited them online, and then showed up at the house?
Still illegal?

I assembled this team for purposes of a League of Extraordinary Gentlemen thing, but in reading this thread it occurs to me they're all highly bangable. Yeah, even Spider Jerusalem.

I understand, and this has crossed my mind several times. Legally, this can't really be right. From the impersonation, the luring with intent to arrest for something which NEVER occured---like when they are charged with sending "harmful material to a minor" even though a minor was NEVER on the receiving end of the chat---seems very...deceptive.

Then again, I feel better when they're unable to lure more children.

But it still seems shady.

And I keep watching. For those one liners. And how utterly rediculous the actor's renditions of the chat logs are. (When it says "LOL" the actors giggle awkwardly. I love it.)

I read in the paper that a shitloed of those cases are getting kicked. Entrapment. The judge was not happy that catching thses guys was a result of private enterprise... entertainment, no less.

I predict that this show will be derailed.
