Charlie Brooker on 'To Catch a Predator'

Video: youtube.com/watch?v=kQLlZZuosz8Article: theguardian.com/culture/2008/may/31/features16.theguide6>When a TV show makes you feel sorry for potential child rapists, you know it's doing something wrong.>It hails from America, where it's not some wacky bit of far-out cable madness, but a mainstream network broadcast; a staple feature of Dateline NBC (a sort of Tonight with Sir Trevor McDonald minus Sir Trevor).>Justice prevails - provided you overlook the several billion troubling aspects to the show. The overpowering whiff of entrapment, for one thing. The collusion between reporters, vigilante groups and police for another. And that "attractive young actress" who greets them by the door: make no mistake, she's hot. And at 18, she's US legal. Presumably someone at To Catch A Predator HQ sat down with a bunch of audition tapes and spooled through it, trying to find a sexy 18-year-old who could pass for 13. They'll have stared at girl after girl, umming and ahhing over their chest sizes, until they found just the right one. And like I say, she's hot. But if you fancy her, you're a paedophile.>It's a pity robot technology isn't more advanced than it is, because the ultimate To Catch A Predator show could do away with the actress altogether. Instead, the men would be greeted by a convincing 17-year-old android, who'd instantly start having sex with them. But oh! Just before they reached climax, a hatch would open in the top of her head, and a robotic version of Chris Hansen's face would emerge on a big bendy metal neck, barking accusations at them, and then the android's vagina would snap shut, trapping the pervert in position, and the robot body would transform into a steel cage from which they couldn't escape, and start delivering near-fatal electric shocks every five minutes to the delight of a self-righteous, audience, chanting Justice Prevails, Justice Prevails. Justice Prevails. Forever.Is he right?

>>135728321To catch a predator is kino, Euros wouldn't understand because they are all pedophiles.

>>135728321>his take away from to catch a predator was that they should replace the decoys with robot minors and add sex scenescould you make it any more obvious?

>>135728321Based and cunnypilled

Why do euromuslims defend pedos so much? Is it because they are brown third worlders?

>>135729694Yes and the elites are all pedos. However it will never be normalized for the plebs.

>>135729694what if I told you ten years from now you'll be trans?

everything he said is logical and accurate

>>135728321I'm a pretty steady sort of chap but honestly now I'm wondering if he's a Paedo.

Chris Hansen’s life went straight into the toilet after this show ended. I’m glad he had to fulfill his contract with the devil.

>>135729718It's going to happen. You'll get mad about it but no one will actually do anything about it.

>NOOOOOOOO THINK OF THE PEDOS :((((((

Did they seriously force the pedo to strip before coming inside? Did they seriously show the pedophile trying to kill himself with a pen? That should be a moment of self reflection for how fucked up your show is, not something you actually show on camera. What the fuck is wrong with mutts? Seriously.Pic related, me but unironically.

>>135729930The dudes in TCAP are not pedos though. Time to revisit Wikipedia boyo.

>>135729937Pedos deserve much worse, desu

>>135728321>raises valid criticisms of the fusion of entertainment, law enforcement and vigilantism>goes on weird tangent about how hot the decoys are>caps it off with retarded robot hypotheticalBravo Charlie

>>135729959You're straight out of a shitty dystopian movie, dude. You obviously don't need as much help as actual pedos, but you still seriously need it too.>In 2015, Hansen announced plans to release a new independent television show called Hansen vs. Predator, a spin-off of his original show To Catch a Predator. The program was intended to premiere online, crowdfunded via Kickstarter.[12] However, Hansen was unable to reach his $400,000 goal, only raising $89,000 by September 2016.[13] Hansen offered promotional memorabilia as part of the campaign that donors claimed to have never received, and he was arrested in January 2019 for paying for $13,000 worth of promotional items with a bad check.[14] After Hansen was unable to reach his Kickstarter goal broadcast rights were sold, with Hansen vs. Predator becoming a recurring segment on Crime Watch Daily.[15]And then the show got cancelled in 2018. Good riddance. Jesus Christ.

>>135729956Nice try. Sounds like you are personally offended, do you have something to hide...?

>>135728957tranny video game show will never have anything on the pure joy one gets watching a greasy pedo get fried on television for all to see

>>135729786Based Chris sacrificing his enteral soul just to give us kino.

>>135730020>not letting me fuck children is dystopian

>>135730020>You're straight out of a shitty dystopian movie because you want pedos to suffer horrible thingsok Ahmed

>>135730024There is Zero wrong with hebephilia. Read on Human Evolution. You Sound like a 40 year old soccer mom. OH NOES!!! NOT MY 14 YEAR OLD SLUTERINOS!!!

The trouble with things like this is that it is likely to have genuinely caused men who wouldn't have done it otherwise to go through with it. They've probably done more to encourage paedos than stop them.

>>135728701Gee who could possibly be the victim of letting pedophiles prey on children

>>135730112>NOOOOOOOO THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH BONING CHILDREN YOU FUCKING RIGHT-WINGERRRR

>>135730132This is america for you son. They also have stuff like bait car. With other words, the USA is one of those countrys that encourage their own population to comit crimes and then pit them in prison for it. I am honestly glad that the niggers are Burning that shit heep down.

>>135729567if you took 5 seconds of initiative you’d find both of those answers in the OPthis review is from 2008

>>135730020>Needing all this text just to be a weak little bitch pedo lmao

>>135730157If you are in puberty you are not a child anymore. Again, a basic book on human biology could work wonders for you.

>>135730200>excuse me, judge, but the girl is clearly in puberty so just ignore the 30-year difference between her and me, ok?

>>135730200t. predator

>>135728368Fpbp

>>135730233If you are in puberty you are not a child anymore. Again, a basic book on human biology could work wonders for you.

>>135730092>Pretending 16+ aren’t ready to fuck and aren’t already fucking or thinking about sex is dishonest>pretending most minors don’t pass as college students nowadays is dishonest>pretending humans aren’t biologically ready to have sex before their of age is also dishonest Pedophilia is basically a meme word now, and is used to shame something that is natural. Real pedos attracted to prepubescent kids are incredibly rare.I hate normies because they pretend that out of the billions of minors out there, they wouldn’t find a SINGLE one physically attractive. Most of the world is attracted to minors yet they’re in denial about it. i agree with the law tho and it isn’t a good thing to be trying to fuck minors

>>135730233Well, i dont live in the gigantic shithole called USA, so wont have that Problem (:

>>135730189Because it's easier for anons to give a quick rundown than read someone's entire wikipedia.

>>135730239Mutt logic: A 14 year old can perfectly consent to murder someone and get the death penalty for it but he or she cant consent if they want to have sex or not......

>>135730273>ok officer, listen to me: when she hits puberty, everything is permitted. This 11 year old girl is perfectly fine for breeding by me, a 30 year old basement dweller. I suggest you open up a biology book sometime.

>>135730346Yes.

>>135730305Googling a name and reading the first sentence that comes up or just a clicking a link in the thread is easier than typing out all that anyway and waiting for a response

>>135730301We know you don't, Mehmet.

>>135730346You literally cannot make a single post without strawmanning can youjust try to make one single point without resorting to fallacyi dare you

>>135730372Hey, at least i dont have to lick any nigger feet. Did you ever read your dumbass bible??? Plenty of your beloved prophets where fine with it too.

>>135730327>>135730291Seething predator

>>135730301>implying brazil is any better

To be honest you should feel sorry for pedos. imagine being born with an unlucky attraction towards minors. They literally cannot choose what they’re attracted to. They are the most cursed people on the planet. And as long as they aren’t breaking the law they should be shown sympathy.

>>135730394Ever heard of a magic word called CONSENT???

>>135730368>>135730377>>135730392>ALLAHU AKBAR AMERICAN KAFFIR WE HERE IN EUROPE CAN RAPE KIDS DO AMERICANS REALLY DO THIS INSHALLAHcalm down, third-worlders. Stop having sex with kids.

>>135730392Haha seething shitskin more proof non whites are pedos

>>135728321How does the age of the actor matter?The "kids" don't send pictures to "entice" them, do they? They go to a house for someone they know is a "child" and then suddenly this broadchested stubbly man comes out and talks to them about his mommy and daddy.In any case yeah it probably isn't a show that should exist, but it's funny so oh well

>>135730412I agree, Switzerland is though (:

>>135730431They should just be castrated. It's beyond me that such a simple solution to this hasn't become law and consensus

>>135730394The irony is I prefer adults as most “predators” and “pedos” do. Normies have no idea about pedophilia and how much it ranges.I’d fuck your mother while, finding a 17 year old hot. Luckily for me I’m not a person who prefers minors so I’m not a predator.

>>135730449As clearly evident by your beloved TCAP...……You know almost every so called Predator being white and all......

>>135730437I doubt any hot young girl wants or will consent with a obese sweaty shitskin theyll consent with a White Chad like me though

>>135730465Castration does not that good though. Plenty of Men that got castrated and still commited sex crimes. Again, Book reading would be good.

>>135730480You should learn the difference between jews and Whites dumb pedo darkie

>>135730492You know that giga chad (guy in your Picture) is turkic??? Aka a shitskin.

>>135730511Checked you cant prove me wrong either

>>135730465Castration is also a dumb idea, because like most sexual attractions you don’t go off and rape the shit out of people or commit crimes because you find women hot. I suspect many have self control, and a variety of things they find sexually attractive. There are pedos who are interested in adults too. I genuinely think therapy, and libido suppressants are the best solutions for non criminal pedos. However if they rape a kid castrate em, but you can’t cut a mans dick off for a thought alone.

>>135730511Maybe you have a point. I mean the USA is truly full of kikes and scum. Donald will deport them soon i bet. (;

>>135730523Thats nice subhuman, still doesn't change the fact no young girl would consent with a pavement ape like you

>>135730577They already have. (:

>>135730546Yeah he can give them to you

>>135730609The ones in your head? Lmao based schizo pedo

>>135730633Fucking CHECKED looks like youre getting BTFO hard here

>>135730620Why would the USA deport their rightfull masters??? :D

>>135730503>>135730543Castration massively reduces sex drive though, oftentimes eliminating it. There are some sick fucks out there so maybe it wouldn't end 100% of child abuse, but for the vast majority of pedos, who probably wish they didn't have that attraction, it would be a blessing

>>135730660Ask amerisharts you silly poof

>>135730633Nah, the real ones. (:

>>135730511>>135730577>>135730633Checked and keked

>>135730665There are literal libido suppressing drugs, which would be more of a blessing than losing your testicles.

>>135730682You are not a sharty???

>pro-pedo thread is also anti-american threadI wonder who is behind all this lol

>>135730685Lmao take your meds

>>135730728I bet, i am also an incel and should have sex, right???

>>135730721It is me!! Rabby Jeshua!! Now back to work muttlet!!!!

>>135730721Its always the way>>135730716Everyone isnt an american you schzio

>>135730710Which seems more efficient, a one-time, permanent procedure, or a continued prescription that could be reversed at any time?

>>135730721You should be anti American if you hate pedos. The aoc laws in America are retarded. They should be 18 all around the board and shouldn’t have weird fucking loopholes that allow you to have sex with minors so long as your in another state.

>>135730765I know, but i noticed that americans get extremly butthurt if you critizice theyr beloved TCAP.

>>135730774Nobody is gonna willingly castrate themselves. Libido suppressants make way more sense.

>>135730741Nah youre just a schizo fag but if you think youre a sexless incel then yeah sure

Attached: 1586578065353.jpg (720x568, 18.58K)

>>135730820>Nobody is gonna willingly castrate themselvesWhy not? If you were a pedophile why wouldn't you? It could be a painless, free procedure, and you wouldn't have to remember to take your meds to stop wanting to fuck kids. More finality too, would put people's minds at ease better, feel closer to being a cure rather than just treatment

>>135730882Because pedos still enjoy having a dick and would like the idea they can enjoy sexual pleasure in a healthy way at some point in their life.Castrations are too permanent, and you don’t have to become a eunuch.

>>135730838Mr. Mercury is not starring at me though. He stares besides me and there is not even anyone. You cant even meme right.

>>135730950But there's no cure for disordered attraction, you can only suppress sex drive. The permanence is the point

>>135730950I think you are confusing castration with the removal of the penis. They are not the same.

>>135731033I genuinely think most pedos could ween themselves off kids or develop different tastes.I know there are people on 4chan who has had their sexuality influenced by being exposed to trap porn over and over.I suspect the same could happen to pedos. They’ll probably always like kids but if they discover a legal fetish they could sexually engage in it.

>>135731110They need a role playing Chatroom dude.

>>135730132>is that it is likely to have genuinely caused men who wouldn't have done it otherwise to go through with it.You expect me to believe this? You sick kidfuckers are walking time bombs.
