I’m going to be honest, I’m suspicious of every single ‘pedophile hunter’. They are going after a demographic that people will not rush to defend, even if innocent.

Also, these ‘hunters’ probably have something shady going on in their own lives, and this is some form of projection that they also profit off of.

Normal healthy people don't plan to commit violent offenses on other people, unless there is a direct connection to the 3rd parties actions. Hunting people they have no connection to for fame and fortune is sickening.

There is an excessive usage of the word 'hunting'. What all those people are doing is admitting that they consider people as animals, or an "acceptable" way of harassment. And just like people who where in the kkk they don't care who that person is, but that they're the most vulnerable minority.
