What like the Portsmouth paedo hunters who cant tell the difference between a paediatrician and a paedophille?
Twats.
Don’t know much about them but they’d better be right every time!!!
These guys seem to have at least one GCSE between them and have had a successful prosecution today.
Is that for real Cob ? … only in Portmouth
… fuckin’ idiots the lot of 'em

Allegedly - I seem to remember a news story from way back, but just googled it to check and it may be a myth. With similar stories across the country. / world.
Anyone know?
Maybe people in Portsmouth are saying the same about Southampton?
For real.
Edit (sort of):-
I have a beef with those vigilantes who take the law into their own hands. Many seem obsessed and non too stable.
Giving surveillance info to the police and getting them to act fine.
Taking the law into your own hands, not too sure about that.
If my kids were groomed by a sicko then my answer is likely to be different.
From what I understand this group just set up the paedos by pretending to be young kids then when the “mark” turns up at the arranged meet the police are there to carry on. They do talk to the “marks” about what they are doing and that their targets are just children but they dont get involved beyond that.
There was a lot of discussion about entrapment when Fat Sam was taken down and a lot of people were against the principle. It seems to be an effective way of finding and prosecuting peados, perhaps the police should use these tactics themselves?
I think you’ve hit the nail on the head SOG - perhaps the police should be doing just that. Vigilantes won’t go away until they do.
Trouble is, is that there are so many things that should be done but the govt want to spend our money on things that suit them, not what will help society
I’m going to stop now - it’s Friday, can someone start a thread where we can tell knob gags and other bollocks please…
