    corner a pedo

    And since these are internet vigilante kids with no oversight, they will inevitably corner some non-pedos too.

    Put yourself in that situation- a couple teenagers with cameras approach you on the street and start accusing you of some of the sickest crimes imaginable. Even though the accusation is false, this has the potential to ruin your career, your relationships, your entire life.

    I’m not sure how anyone would respond, or should respond, but I can definitely see how people might resort to violence when falsely accused of this horrible shit on camera.

      Exactly. Vigilante justice is not the solution here, it’s only going to get a lot of people hurt.
