No, MySpace doesn't, idiots do. Idiots make it easier for the predators.

Predators use MySpace and idiots use MySpace. Predators approach said idiots and said idiots approach predators.

It's no different than a man saying "Come here, I have some candy." and a 14 year old following. In fact, it's more stupid.

If people were smarter, predators would have NO success online. In real life if you resist they can drag you into a van, what can they do online if you refuse to meet? Nothing.

Stop blaming MySpace.

So Predators and Idiots are the only kinds of people who use Myspace? Hmmmm.....

Broad Generalization.

Idiotic misinterpretation.

They do use MySpace, I didn't imply they were the only kind of users.

that was not a sweeping generalisation in terms of who uses myspace.

granted it certainly was in terms of only idiots being preyed upon.

It's similar to playgrounds, if a playground does not have a 24-hour police guard then it too is allowing paedophiles to prosper...or not, dear me there was a time people were expected to have the common sense to look after themselves...now a days no one takes responsibility.

or parents could just monitor their child's activity on the computer, instead of having to create a one-world-government just so we can have a world-police force to enforce the law on myspace

Exactly, Moff.

There's a child abuse commercial on TV and the tagline is: "Together we can wipe out child abuse.". Can't can we? Let's be realistic.

I didn't imply it's only idiots that are preyed upon either, just idiots who allow predators to be successful in most cases.

its a shame you didnt, because i would agree with such a generalisation.
reason being that idiot parents do not monitor their children's activity on the internet, and idiot parents tend to breed idiot children

Not really an idiotic minsinterpretation based on how you said it. And as I told you in the other thread. Stop with the blatant, uncalled for insults. You want an useless argument, go somewhere else please.

Carry on.

Or parents could teach their children to be responsible,I would never have met up with anyone of the Internet...if I had the Internet that is, saying that, I wouldn't have went with a stranger on the streets either... its all about upbringing.

Saying it's idiotic isn't an insult, it was. If you were insulted, that's your own problem. I was insulting your misintepretation, not you.

Stop with the blatant, uncalled for whining.

Just stop it now. 🙄

I'm not blaming anything, it's just a fact, myspace does facilitate online predators.

So does the outside world...a child could walk into the woods near where I say and never come out.

Thank you, I shall assume you have come round to my point, Myspace isnt to blame, its stupid kids. I blame the parents. Although, they will probably blame the government after all, noone wants to take responsibility for their mistakes anymore.
