they have to do to snag those guys, I'm all for it.

Although I can see the point about "entrapment", but just to make it more fair, maybe any site like that could give people a couple of chances to back out before fully committing.

Example: "Are you over 18 and are you sure you want to want to view child sexual acts?" or however they want to word it.

That should take care of anyone who might have "accidentally" stumbled upon the site.

If people are given the chance to back out and they don't, I don't give a shit what happens to them after that.

But is it "abuse" when it's merely an animated image, not a real person? 99th_Monkey Nov 2013 #3

The perp didn't know that. He thought he was talking to a real human being..his intent was against a shraby Nov 2013 #6

That does not constitute any real abuse or injury to anyone, 99th_Monkey Nov 2013 #10
