THIS ONE IS FOR YOU KOC. TIM WE DID IT.
i honestly didn't know it was a full show - i thought we were talking about the dateline specials

sure it's something to gawk at - no worse than cops or anyting else

i don't care what people get out of it - anytime you expose these people it's a good thing

also, many people don't fully understand computers and the realities of the online world - a lot of people didn't grow up with or really understand how to operate computers

:thumbup:

Yeah lame, Until someone pulls out a pistol. But since you dont watch it, Ill let you know that 2 people have had guns in their car. One had a shotgun and another had a 9mm

And one was a cop that had a whole arsenol and was packing on his person, actually... I forgot about that...

It's sensationalism designed for NBC to make money off the actions of pedophiles. Do we really need to hear those disgusting email transcriptions? And here's something I bet you haven't thought about.....how many creeps out in TV land get inspired by hearing those emails?


Yes we do need to hear about the transcripts. Some parents out there think the internet is all video games and email. I guarentee when parents hear what is being typed on the internet they will control what their child does with their computer or where they go. I know my sisters kids were allowed to go into chat rooms unsupervised until my sister saw the show.

Let's not pretend these are public service announcements. So you don't think creeps watch the show to get off hearing the email transcriptions? You don't think some creeps out there get inspired hearing these transcripts?

I'm not against the concept of this show. But the sensationalism starts to feel counter-productive.

Well lets just ban the internet, tv, movies and books then too because some pervert might get off to the information in all of these sources as well.

amazing.

I wish they had a channel like CNN for this show. 24/7 creepy weirdos getting busted and crying that they are innocent.

Whats better then lighting a fire, snuggling up on the bear skin rug, munching on some freshly popped pop corn, and laughing to tears of these jerks and their excuses. :grabs:
