A predator hanging himself. What’s the problem? Sounds like good news, unless I missed something.

Malcolm honked twice as he sped away, driving 30 minutes back home to his parents’ house in Torrington, where he hanged himself.

CongressFrontHole Rashida Tlaib was saddened.

The article is trying to make readers feel a connection with a predator of underage (teen) boys. Expect more articles along these lines. Age of consent laws have long been a sticking point with many gays. The MSM will join in the attempt to garner sympathy, painting such predators as mentors and even protectors of “gay” youth. Many saw this coming.

Wonder what the media reaction would have been if this guy was going to meet a 14 or 15 year old girl? Betting it wouldn’t have been nearly as sympathetic.

“Long article about the increase in various amateur investigative and quasi-vigilante organizations and their rising popularity on social media.”

People are getting frustrated and fed up by the inaction of too many law enforcement agencies and worse, their sometimes active protection of criminals such as illegal aliens.

Technically, is this legal? There is always the “Lead us not unto temptation” clause. Even formal police stings are quite cautious nowadays.

As C. S. Lewis put it, playing the role of Satan is not to break God’s plan — God already knew — however, it’s also to earn Satan’s wages.

Nonetheless, many law enforcement officers object to the groups and consider them dangerous vigilantes.

The corrupt government doesn't like competent competitors enforcing the laws they won't enforce.

This might be the IDEAL way to deal with the Uniparty and its illegal aliens.

This is what happens when there is no justice: people take matters into their own hands.

As far as NBC is concerned, well, how many times have they aided and abetted pedophiles and pedophilia.

After an inquiry from NBC News, Facebook temporarily suspended several predator hunter accounts, removed some individual posts and deleted at least one group entirely. Some groups voluntarily removed their own pages to escape what they saw as a purge. POPSquad appeared to be unaffected.

If you thinking you are chatting with a woman online, it is a man

If you are chatting with an underaged girl/boy, it is the police

They could actually go to the target rich public schools for female predators. If they seriously wanred to make a dent in female predators.

Police in Jacksonville run these stings all the time. Like shooting fish in a barrel, men are lined up around the block. In each case the sting is to meet who they believe are underage females. Always females. Never boys.

They never try to catfish gay men. I suspect they don't want to deal with the optics and accusations of homophobia.

Of course, they're lauded for their efforts.

You didn’t miss nothin . . .

Some quotes:

“It’s not easy to be black, Jamaican, a Jehovah’s Witness and gay in Torrington, Connecticut,” said Allie Morrissey, a friend of Malcolm’s.”

” . . . he wholly subscribed to the idea of the American dream”

But why? He was black, Jamaican, a JW and “gay”? How could such a victim ‘Wholly” subscribe?

And if he did “Wholly subscribe” then why was he chasing children on homosexual sites? What part of the “American Dream” was that, Malc?

“Starting in high school, Malcolm used apps like Tinder and Grindr to meet men from around the state, friends said. On that October night, he had come to Bristol to meet someone younger, purportedly a 14-year-old boy “going on 15,”

Damn, if that’s not a reason to allow more immigrants, esp from Jamaica, then I don’t know what is. I mean, just look at the contribution Young Malcolm made in his short lifetime

NBC really is pathetic.

You could almost hear the violin playing in the background as they described the perp.
