What are your thoughts on ...

As much as I despise these people the law must be upheld by the relevant authorities.

Think back to the medieval days when there were witch hunters. They murdered people on the say-so of others without any proof. Much the same thing would happen today and innocent people would be seriously injured or killed as a result. I agree these people should be taken out of circulation, so to speak, but it must be done lawfully.
 
It is lawful. The paedo starts grooming and then they meet up. If the police can't do the job - why not the vigilantes. Then the paedos dare not try to groom as they don't know who they are going to meet. Young girl or a group with a video camera.
 
If the 'group' lay a bait trail they will be prosecuted for entrapment.
Police are not allowed to do it so no chance Joe Public could use it as a defence.
 
Why is paedophilia always in the news now?

You never heard about it in the eighties. Society seems to be breeding a lot more low life's now.
 
They still can't take the law into their own hands.
As much as I hate these scum the only course of action the group can legally take is to 'rescue' the victim and effect a citizens arrest on the perpetrator.
 
They could pull out a sawn off shotgun and say "eat this".. :lol: :lol:
 
They gather evidence and then give it to the police. You didn't visit the link I provided did you?
 
Joe you seem full on in support of people taking the law into their own hands !!

Google "occupy pedophilia" for a Russian equivalent...

Whilst ridding the world of pedos (not speedos - they still have a place!), there is a way to do things, and vigilanteism isn't it unfortunately.

And Norcon, you say there wasn't the same years ago, well I beg to differ... you need to do some research.. it was just not reported, and there wasn't the internet.. things are quite possibly safer now than ever !!
 
Yes and in the link it is alleged he was also taken into custody for his own protection after threats from people and members of the group. To an extent the group did try to trap him, and I understand why, but they could only pass on their findings to the police who would then have to gather hard evidence. As it was the girl told them what had happened and luckily he admitted it, possibly because the group confronted him, but he could so easily denied it and their involvement could have led to a mis-trial because they posted about him on the internet before the case.
 
I'm with Joe on this one, maybe its the neanderthal in me coming out, I would have no qualms what-so-ever in using my baseball bat.

Which is the whole point. Most of us on here feel the same way about these scum but the law of the land is prevents us doing this, this in turn is what makes us civilised.

Sorry Conny but I have a young granddaughter and if something happened to her "civilised" goes out the window.
