    Pedophile Hunters Are Starting To Grow In Popularity. Some Are Taking Justice Into Their Own Hands | The Daily Caller

    Marty, according to Joshua Mundy and Jay Carnicom, allegedly arrived at in the Days Inn parking lot in Fort Wayne, Indiana, that day to meet a 13-year-old girl for sex. Instead, he met Dads Against Predators (DAP), an organization that confronts alleged pedophiles and films the encounters for social media.

    Public humiliation is the primary MO for the vast majority of vigilante pedophile hunters, but DAP is different. These guys draw blood, often releasing videos where they openly assault their targets. The Marty sting was brutal.

    This all seems good at first glance because we all hate people like this, but as the lust for clicks grows an innocent person is going to get misidentified. They also have a low arrest percentage.

    Why not just set the guy up and have the cops ready? The arrest is more important than the clicks because the guy is still on the street in most of their cases.

    Sadly this isnt about justice. It's about money and clicks.

    It's about 'look at me and buy a T-shirt for only $31.99!'
    This is nothing but trouble.

    Yeah, it's not the first time people took matters into their own hands... I remember Asian woman getting assaulted and even murdered because of people taking matters into their own hands...

    I remember the Bolshevik Loving Marxists and ANTIFA riots where those clowns took matters into their own hands... Many people murdered there too.

    That POS pedophile got off easy if you ask me.

    Even if it just saves one kid, isn't it worth it?

    Not if calling the cops first would have saved 50 kids. Many of these guys avoid arrest BECAUSE of the videos according to the link.

    Set them up. Have the cops in the next room. Boom. Problem solved.

    Or even assault guilty people that then avoid arrest. These guys dont deserve a shoe to the jaw. They deserve bubba in the bunk above.

    what exactly are you saying, Tilly? That this isn’t about enforcing laws and protecting children? That’s it’s really about three yahoos who want to play cops, beat up people, get attention and sell merchandise? Is that what you’re saying?:cool:

    Hopefully the Secret Service will get their crap together so they will be prepared for these guys when they take a swipe at trump.

    Some of these groups are better than others IMO. Any that are intimidating and threatening people make prosecution more difficult.

    My granddaughter had an incident last weekend, she is not a minor but an 18 year old. She was in Publix and some guy kept following her around making rude remarks and trying to get her to leave with him. He waited until they were on an unoccupied isle then lifted her skirt and snapped a picture. She ran to the restroom, locked herself in a stall and called my son and my wife crying her eyes out. They both arrived at about the same time and contacted the manager and called the Police. After while they sent her home and the Police stayed for a couple of hours to review the store video tapes.

    A couple days later they called Shelbie and asked her to come in and look at a photo lineup, they think they know who it was. He has done that kind of thing in other stores. I haven't heard how that turned out yet but I wouldn't mind seeing a little Police brutality if and when they pick him up.

    Sad actually that this even exists.

    Three issues. 1) parents not knowing what their kids are doing. 2) not enough law enforcement (tax dollars) to pay for enforcement and 3) the rise of incels in society because the war against boys and toxic masculinity. Boil this all down to social media and mass connectivity that didn’t exist 20 years ago.

    Why was she put thru the trauma of identifying the pervert? I imagine they had all sorts of good footage of him on the CCTV.

    Yeah. I told my son he needs to tell her if anything like that ever happens again she needs to speak up before it goes that far. I'm sure had she loudly protested when he first started hassling her there would have been a number of men and women in the store who would have confronted the guy.

    This story sounds a whole lot like any of the numerous accounts of Donald Trump allegedly committing sexual assault. Except thus account is absent the actual unwanted grabbing of genitals.

    Here, read for yourself:
