Silly article today in the Star-Telegram on the dangers of MySpace.com. A teenager driving on 380 is in more danger than she'll ever be because of MySpace.And if a prosecutor that worked for me drove over to a citizen's house to warn the mother about her daughter's MySpace page, I'd call her into my office and tell her to cut that crap out.

Don't we all know where a bunch of teenage girls live in our community? Let's face it, myspace is not suddenly going to make it easy for pervs to find kids. It's easy enough already. The kid needs to be more careful, sure. Maybe the prosecutor should also pull up into the driveways of all the houses with "Kaitlyn the Cheerleader" lives here signs staked in the front yard or on the back windows of Suburbans.
hummm....i have to disagree with you on this one. Most teenagers do not have their pages set to private and anyone can look at them. It is cool to post pictures of you and your friends hanging out and talking about events going on at school between each other. It is easy enough to look up people by state, zip code, and even city. It is easy enough for someone to come across at page and find someone they like or find interested in. It is easy enough if you know an area to figure out what events at school someone might be at or where they hang out.
A Tip for All Parents get your own Myspace and take a look at what your kids are posting. You just might learn some new things about them.
you guys are nutz-don't warn the kids or naive younger good look'n wemen-makes em harder to stalk-I mean meat. Myspace and social networking sites are a perves dream come true. So many targets-I mean victims, I mean people-yea, friends, so little time.
