Myspace has been getting alotta press lately [most of it being NEGATIVE though]
b-cuz sexual predators are using it as a tool to arrange dates & meet teens they've met online.
Last Friday night, Carly & I watched a 2-hour special on DATELINE NBC
about this sick trend [where they collaborated with the Riverside, CA police department
on a sting operation setup on Myspace to catch these sick fucks who prey on teenagers].
I wanna commend their efforts to get those assholes off-the-streets & outta our communities.
They nabbed dozens of predators of ALL ethnicities [a high school teacher, dirty old men,
college kids, rich folk, some single, others married, gay bees, straight cats, convicted felons,
registered sex offenders, & even somebody that worked for the Dept. Of Homeland Security].
1/2 of me was laughing @ these idiots, while the other 1/2 was frightened by their intentions.
Carly contemplated becoming a psychiatrist [like my grandpa was], in order to help them....
but, on the other hand, I feel that sick fucks like them CAN'T be rehabilitated.
Personally, I think that the people who REALLY need rehabilitiation & counseling
are the teenage girls who put themselves in a position where they can be victims of this shit!!
As I get older, I must admit that it NEVER ceases to amaze me how increasingly STUPID
teenagers come off to me.
Last night, on the evening news, there was a segment about sexual predators using Myspace
& they interviewed a group of teenagers, to find out their attitudes about this site....
listening to them made me realize how FUCKIN' STUPID kids nowadays are!!!!
And [having been a teenager before] I'd be an idiot to think that the small segment of kids
being interviewed WEREN'T representative of the teenage population as a whole.
These kids admitted that when they log onto Myspace,
they DON'T even think about the fact that adults are using the site too.... & I'm thinking,
"Duh???? How jaded has somebody gottabe to think that it's ONLY a teenage hangout"!!! 
These little teenage hoez even have profiles with risque pictures of themselves on them,
b-cuz they want guys to tell them THEY'RE HOT as a FAKE boost to their self-esteem!!!!!
Now, it's NOT like I DIDN'T know that this was going on....
but, shit, it's also NOT like I ever go looking @ teenagers Myspace profiles either.
What's amazing to me is how many teenage girls are doing this shit!!!!
I remember when the innocence of being a teenager was something to treasure....
but, nowadays, it's sumthin' that could lead to your premature death [as we've seen].
@ least 2-3 girls on Myspace have been murdered by people that they met on this website.
As much as I wanna blame EVERYTHING on the sexual predators....
I can't help but put PART of the blame on the idiotic teenage girls who allow themselves to
become a victim & put PART of the blame on the parents who DON'T monitor their kids.
And then, when I think of Tom & his Myspace buddies....
I can't help but feel sorry for them, b-cuz I know that they DIDN'T expect sexual predators
to use this site to lure victims & I'm sure that [in a sense] it's gottabe difficult for them to
sleep @ night knowing that they've given those sick fucks this kinda power.
I have ALOT that I wanna say about this subject,
but I'll wait till the responses start rolling in for me to get into any further commentary.
