This should have been in the "Ken Foster" category.

Dude, did somebody editing a video have a seizure? I don't get it. I think you found a clip that has some issues.

What I never understand is how each one of the predators asks the same question, "are you a cop?" and somehow thinks that the person talking to him will be honest.

I guess some people think that there are entrapment laws that require cops to identify themselves and whatnot, but to take someone at their word over the internet? It's sooo dumb.

Edit to add: I also find it odd that each of the predators is dumbstruck when he finds an actual girl/guy waiting for him. Most of the time he doesn't know what to say. In any other situation you'd feel bad for the guy's awkwardness.

when they're reading the chat logs, i wish instead of saying "heh heh" or "ha ha" that they would actually say, "lawl" when it says, "lol."

but yes, definitely a sick, sad thing to watch. quite addicting. every time i see a new episode, i can't help but imagine how many times these people have actually gotten away with it in the past. and then i think about what a bad ass chris hansen is.

I love the series, so much that my ex and I would have 'predator' nights where we'd eat take out and laugh our asses off at the people.

I'm with you on this MM. its kind of a guilty pleasure. Its sad that there are so many disgusting people in the world, but on the flip side, those buttholes desirve exactly what they get. Only really lonely sad dudes would think:"yeah this 13-14 year old hot chick totally wants my 35-40 year old sorry wrinkled ass! her parents are home and she wants me to come over for no strings attached lovin" WHAT ARE YOU THINKING? I for one can tell you that there is no such thing as no strings attached- there is always a string of some sort. but guys are you really that sad that A) you cant find a lady your own age? B) you cant find and attract a lady without use of the internet? C) you have to know you are gonna get busted, not to mention the moral implications. I hate these people cause they prey on the young and innocent and am glad that a group off peeps are willing to invest the effort into taking these dirtbags off the street.

Is it wrong that I get some sort of pleasure watching these men being taken down for their heinous crime?

I'd seriously be interested in purchasing all these specials in some sort of DVD Box set. I know thats wrong, but I cant stop watching these specials on Youtube.

I just can't get enough of these guys, and their B.S. pleas, their lies and then the look on their face when they get caught.

I love justice. Perhaps I can work with my police and set up a sting with them, I have little sisters, this makes me sick, and kind of worried. I wonder what it would take to do that, I suppose there are organizations I could contact.
