Chris Hansen: Hey look everybody! This guy is a scumbag! We lured him in here by acting as a promiscuous 14-year old girl on the internet who was willing to have sex with him! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Look at the poor man cry!

Everybody: Wow! What a piece of shit scumbag! I'm glad there are people like Chris Hansen in this world to protect our children from online predators! Now we don't have to do anything to protect our children! We love you Chris Hansen!

Chris Hansen: (to himself) Yes! I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo awesome. Everybody loves me.

Seriously, fuck off.

Oh wait, did you say that or did I?

It appears you miss the point of the show.

Sure a major part of it is entertainment, just like everything in TV. Entertainment and education is all TV is. When it started the main point of it was to show how unsuspecting pedophiles can be, considering everyone just thinks they're creepy dirty lookign guys. The second point is to actually capture them, which is much bigger then the show. Much more are captured then appear on TV, and the only reason the show goes on is because, RATINGS. People watch it and like it. People like seeing bad people loose. So obviously that will continue to air.

And you know what? I like seeing them loose too. I've seen firsthand children break down from being victim to such perversions, so honestly, I take pleasure in seeing what goes around, comes around.


Thanks for the laugh.

Vercetti, you might want to try posting things that are relevant to the thread instead of building up your image as the messiah who tells us it's okay to follow up on our sickest of emotions. It gets old.

As for your question, yeah, if someone molested my daughter, I'd fuck them up badly. Difference is, I wouldn't be proud of it, I wouldn't talk about it, and I sure as hell wouldn't fucking televise it.

I mean really, anyone recall the braniac who was caught TWICE on that show? His only answer being "oops".

I feel some sexual innuendo coming on.

That is just one way of protecting our children. Parents have to teach their kids about the scum that is out there who will hurt you. Monitor the kids internet use. When my 10 year old is on the computer I am right there seeing what sites he goes on.

So wanting a child molester arrested is a sicker emotion than feeling sorry for one and bashing someone who helps catch these people?

Alright.

Wow. Just wow.

If I cought some sick pervert molest one of my kids I would bash their brains in and I would be proud of it. I would tell the world that there is one less piece of shit on the face of this earth.

Wanting a child molester arrested is not a sick emotion, and my problem with Hansen is not the fact that he catches these people. It's the manner in which he does it, the way he carries himself, and how the audience reacts that makes me sick. And the people they catch are not forcing themselves on anybody, they're being lured in.

OK. That's it for me with this thread. You're fucked up.

Obviously you're lost if you think I'm irrelevant, and trust me buddy, the only one using an image on this board is you. You're a pseudo intellectual-artistic-contrarian. Your posts resonate against-the-grain punkesque attitudes just to show you're different.

It's just evident in how you usually try to be cool, collected, and calculating in many of your posts, but if I really irk you in an argument a handful of times you IMed me with an extreme polar opposite of a personality, raging at me. You're entire post history on this board is a charade, you're own personal Tyler Durden.

Go ahead, throw what I say back at me and say I'm the one putting up an act. I'm the hard ass guy being honest and in touch with myself. Burn! Or, tell me to fuck off.

DVC, honestly, I've wanted to tell you this for a long time but lacked the energy for the inevitable bitch-fighting that would ensue, but you're a pretentious twat.



Yeah, and that Mack truck driver on the show didn't mean to bring condoms and cocaine with him, Chris lured it out of him.

Lured in, yeah, by their own perverse desires.

Plain and simple, if you're ok in the head and not a child molester, you don't agree to meet with 14 year old girls to have sex.

And, again, that's my problem with this entire subject. When you commit an act as heinous as violently beating another person to pieces, and then boasting it with pride, where's the fucking line that separates you from them?

Come on, people. I'm supposed to be the BB's immoral agnostic who walks around not believing in God. Why am I getting this?

In addition to that, child predators and molesters are obviously acting upon impulses they cannot control. I just saw an episode where a man was caught once, and then proceeded to get caught again the very next day. That just shows how powerful of an addiction that can be, and that these people really do have serious problems. But that doesn't mean they're not human beings, and exposure on a national level can ruin someone's life, or cause them commit suicide.

The entire thing is repulsive.

I agree.

I didn't know I meant that much to you.

Exactly, and that's why I simply cannot enjoy the show.

Great contrarian reply. Finding satisfaction in someone having a strong distaste for you.
--------

Anyway, for a general sense of the subject, if someone can't help harming people, they belong behind bars. Let Gerald bother Bubba.

I personally don't enjoy it -- it's really just uncomfortable TV for me. Very awkward and all that.

I could enjoy the idea of child molesters (or potential child molesters) being put in prison and out of reach from children.

Let's agree to disagree on this one ok?

I believe you meant, "quite fucking true."

I think that's the point DVC is making though. He's not saying, "Child molesters are perfectly OK people who should be left alone." He's saying that we should give it are all to arrest these sex offenders, but there is something wrong about holding them as inferiors, and taking pride in their dismay.

Really, I don't care what anyone does, whenever you take pride in anyones dismay, something truly fucked up is occurring. We can all agree that when a group of terrorists decide to go out and carry on in a scheme that will potentially kill innocent people, something fucked up has occured. But I think it's just as fucked up to take pride in getting a hold of those people, and causing them pain... "basing their brains in". Sure, maybe that's the route that ultimately had to be taken, maybe not... But either way, it's still really fucked up that we, human beings, one of the most sophisticated species on this planet, have to bring ourselves down to a level in which we are causing one another intentional pain and suffering. There is nothing to be proud of, it's a giant step back in civilization for both sides.

The question is, can these people be rehabilitated? I don't think anybody knows that for sure, that's the tough part of this whole thing. You don't know if they're attracted to young kids exclusively, or if it's simply a fetish they need to be snapped out of through consequence.

Exactly.

You are teh greats.

I would say the 'f' word but I'd be considered illiterate by some.

Fuck it. Quite fucking true!

hahaha... I almost posted in that thread, but ended up deciding it wasn't worth the waste of my fucking time.

DVC loves child molestors.

I haven't seen the show, but it sounds like it's just another form of garbage television for mindless minds to watch in order to make them feel good about themselves and bad about society.

DVC has a good point: this Chris Hansen dude is in it for the fame as much as he is for the common health of society. It's a sad state of affairs when we live in a society that needs to pay for water and make a spectacle out of putting harmful people behind bars. And that's what it is. Propagandising, phony spectacle. Hooray hooray!

That said, this thread was posted, it seems, with the typical intention of not only putting forth an opinion, but doing so with a hyperbolic, teenage need to be shouted at and pissed on. And why? Because DVC knew fine well that even if his opinion was a valid one that others would agree with, the argument that came with it, which lay behind it, was a vacant, empty one, an embodiment of the "OMGLOLZ" generation. Teenagers always rebel, of course, but only morons do it with such shallow haste. It's like me making a thread saying The Godfather is rubbish, and then getting a hard-on once people ask why.

The thread-starting post, in all its vacant attention-seeking, should have at least been in the Post Whoring thread. But of course, DVC knew fine well that he'd ruffle the right feathers and that he'd get replies like "and why is that," " " and all that other shallow garbage.
