Have you seen Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator where they arrest pedophiles?
A lot of people are familiar with Dateline NBC’s segment To Catch a Predator with Chris Hansen. Its a show where they talk with creepy guys on the internet and bust them for showing up at a house filled with hidden cameras expecting to have sex with boys and girls ranging in age from 12-16 years old. Its all a set up but they are often able to prove intent to have sex with a minor and arrest these guys. (If you are interested, look on youtube, there are lots of clips).
My husband and I like this show and it just amazes me how many normal seeming guys get busted trying to sleep with teens and tweens on this show. Some of these are married men with kids, and some professions I have seen have included teachers, a rabbi, a cop, and a homeland security official.
Does it scare you how many creepy perverts there are that would happily take advantage of your child at such an early age? I think this show tells you how very important it is to discuss internet and stranger safety with your children as early and as often as possible. There are so many freaks out there, and if you’ve seen this show you know what I mean!
Thumbsdown you Whitswife? Of course not! I thumbs up you, your answer was much more creative than my simply cutting off his peepee and beating him with it. Lol…
Should Dateline NBC's "To catch a predator" should stay on air?
This show has proved to America that anybody, regardless of occupation, religion, or even apperance, is capable of being a sex offender. Moreover, "To catch a predator" educates parents on internet safety for their children. In my opinion, this show has done nothing but great things. It discourages those whose goal is to get young boys/girls to have sex with them. Just because one person committed suicide, this shouldn’t stop new shows being aired. Do you believe NBC should continue airing the show?
