These type of people define the term "sexual predator". The investigations normally involve older men 30's-40's and on, attempting to set up meetings with 11-14 year old boys and girls. The age difference I'm sure is one of the defining criteria for building a case. I've never worked on one of these but I know several people who have. These are no-doubt, slam-dunk cases involving people who actively seek out sexual encounters with CHILDREN. I worked as a sexual abuse investigator for several years, it was the most fucked up assignment I've ever had. It was the main reason I went back to uniform patrol. I could tell stories that would make most people on here vomit. Pm me and I'll expand. The guy deserves what he gets. For every pedophile they catch, several are probally successful in the encounter. I can't remember the exact stats, but the reporting rate is less than 20% ( I think) for child sexual abuse. I'd rather write tickets, fight drunks, or listen to people bitch (what we do in patrol) than deal with these sick bastards. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Wow, Not even worth a response,(but I guess I did) "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I still support GWB however I took my sticker off months ago. THE ELECTION IS OVER, so my wife and I decided to get on and look forward. I live in one of the most conservative areas of the country (greater Cincinnati). I still see plenty of W stickers and some of the classy ones from the other side, such as "Fuck Bush" etc. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Thousands of people DID NOT die, starvation did not and is not going on. THAT would be a colossal failure. The response was at the most, 48 hrs late. The bitching and finger pointing started much sooner. That is a failure at ground zero by the first layer of leadership. The head of FEMA screwed up and was replaced, valuable lesson learned. He perfomed acceptably during last years hurricane season. FEMA is legally obligated to direct aid efforts only after initial steps have taken by local and state officials. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

There was no colossal failure on the federal level. Bush took responsiblity for a slow federal response. There was a colossal failure of leadership at the state and local level from the very beginning. From the govenor crying during the storm, to the mayor of N.O. having a temper tantrum on a local radio station. These failures set the tone of utter dependence from the very beginning. Calm and collected leadership could have prevented many things from steamrolling into what it did, chaos. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

This would have been just as screwed up under ANY administration. Your agenda comes shining through. The main problems were with the local and state govts., your a smart guy, read my post. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I'm good enough, I'm strong enough, and doggonit, people like me!! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

This guy had an agenda from the beginning. I'm sure this whole situation was a cluster, disasters usally are until things get organized. There is plenty of blame to go around, but some people (especially the left) have WAY to much confidence in the govt. I like when he said "i guess we are on our own", gee, what a concept. Let's look at his time line, he was evacuated it appears on Thursday. I'm sure he wasn't comfortable but, he certainly did'nt starve and was evacuated in four days from the worst natural disaster in American history. We will learn lessons from this and hopefully not repeat the same mistakes again. The main screw-ups in my opinion are at the local and state level. Let's face it, N.O. has always had one of, if not the most corrupt local governments in the nation. This could not have happened at a worse location for several reasons. The finger pointing needs to stop and we all need to roll our sleeves up and fix the many problems. IMHO "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Where are you staying? If your staying downtown or near downtown, PM me and i'll give ya the lowdown on my hood. The cops know all the good places to drink and eat!!! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Run around in a war zone with a camera on your shoulder, looks an awful lot like an RPG....... I say reporting from a war zone can be hazardous to your health. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Whether it's in the air at 6,000 or on the ground at 2ft. I stand behind my clients so well it's scary......... "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Now come on, the media twisting facts to further an agenda. I find that VERY hard to believe!! Especially CBS News. The view from the ivory tower is so clear............ "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Penis: Heat seeking moisture missile. I haven't seen that one yet! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I'd look forward to finding OJ, I think he's still grieving at the local golf course. Oh ya, that picture of Frank you have, yep I caught him! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I wear double-knit polyester, drive around in a nicely decorated car (including colored lights), and put people in jail.............only the bad ones "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Two wrongs don't make a right. We will have to see how far he goes before he becomes the complete opposite of Mrs. Sheehan. I wonder if this man has already met with the president, but still wants another meeting for furthering his political agenda. There are extremes on both sides, these kinds of emotions bring out the fringe. Gosh Bill, maybe FOX News will back this guy like MOVEON.org backs Mrs.Sheehan, at least in your mind.......... "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Cyberspace I think................. Uhhhh...can't say anything else, under the threat of (gasp).........censorship............. Although greenies are the ultimate authority here, and I respect that. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Any Law Enforcement needed here 'Twardo? If not I can be contracted to kick his ass............... "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

I did control myself (sort of). I respectfully asked for the thread to be locked. I've let it go, heck I seldom post anyway. I'll be a good boy. My mistake. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

T-T-T-T-T-Troll............... Sorry, I just could'nt say it fast enough............. Blue Skies!! Just because you're paranoid, doesn't mean people aren't watching you!!! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Hee Hee.............. I've caught so many people doing various "things" over the years it's not funny (actually it is). The funniest is the (usually) male half looking into the flashlight with the glazed donut face. Found some girl on girl a couple of times

Hate to say it dude but, you may want to take a break until you are off probation. Many police brass I've run into have no sense of humor about jumping, especially if you get injured. After probation you can tell them to kiss your ass pretty much, when it comes to your (legal) off-duty activities. Good Luck! "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

The man is a fool looking for attention, plain and simple. Dipshits like him are best ignored. "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

HA!!!!! Who said us cops don't have any sense!!! Especially those of us who jump! Great story!!! Blue Skies "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"

Fiscal conservative- Let me have MY money, make others work as hard as I have. Liberal on energy policy- I hate to going to the desert so some fat-cat can drive a Hummer.............. I intentionally own two 4-cylinder vehicles, our next vehicle may be a hybrid. Conservative on many other issues, abortion, human genetic research, etc. I'm not a very religious guy , but I respect those who are, and share many of their values. I've spent just about my whole professional life working in an urban area. I see that many social give-away programs simply don't work. It takes a gentle push, sometimes a shove, for some people to take responsibility for their lives. IMHO Blue Skies "Just 'cause I'm simple, don't mean I'm stewpid!"
