I keep seeing videos lately of grown men posing as children online and baiting individuals to public spaces and either assaulting them or recording/exposing them for content. While I don’t mind the idea of a predator being outed, the idea of grown adults posing as children online seems unsavory to me. Especially if their end goal isn’t to protect children, and is to provide content for views.

Obviously, being a child predator is wildly immoral and illegal and their actions are not what’s being debated.

    there’s a part of me that wonders if those predators would find another target if the decoy “child” wasn’t presented to them

    If these idiots are meeting kids to try to abuse at a Wal-Mart, they are more than likely not smart enough to entice actual minors in other settings.
