2. Video
In this video an Online Predator is being interviewed. This video shows statistics and explains about why being safe online can keep these Predators away. The children are talked to about the internet and internet safety. This also talks about the Think You Know campaign.
3. Web Site
This website is a website that has over 400 listed online predators. You can contact the website, make donations, and learn about the online predators. Here, you can see where they are from, their convictions, and basically who, what, when, where.
Overall, my opinion is that there are online predators everywhere and people need to keep their kids safe. I believe that children in our society need to be taught how to use the internet in an intelligent way. Using websites such as facebook, myspace, msn messaging, aol instant messaging, and many other social networking places, I believe that many children are vulnerable to these Online Predators. If more people began to teach online safety, I think this issue would become, less of an issue. Although teaching would help, it would not stop the people who do these types of crimes. Its a horrible thing and is a big problem in our society today that needs to be dealt with somehow.
