Pedophiles will rape your kid, and use the DS to do it!

Godbless FOX news for being so damned crazy, we don't even need to defend ourselves.

I'd question what kind of lame ass kid's doing in pictochat to see if anyone's on in the first place.

I've never ever seen the point in the device. Even if your neighbour had one you could, you know, PHONE THEM instead of doing something this lame. I highly doubt any child molester's out there are this desperate.

Dear god, why aren't these people actively compaigning for a universal ban against home computers because they expose to dangerous content.

"YOUR CHILD COULD BE TALKING TO A HAIRY PEDOPHILE ON HER MOUSE RIGHT NOW, HERE'S HOW."

EDIT:
I'm actually lollin' more at what the mother is saying. As if you're ever going to even afford to be anywhere near an airport, girl.

That mall test they did to see how far the range was. Could they maybe have been connected to the net at that point? Plenty of malls in the states have wireless networks set up (or atleast all the ones i've been at have, i could be wrong, it's been a while since i've been to the states)

"A pedophile driving by could see your child in the backseet with a DS and send him or her a message, while you're in the front seat Totally Oblivious!!!!" lol, can you imagine trying to do pictochat while driving?

Also, that news guy has really bad hand writing.

OBJECTION!

TAKE THAT!

Oh this reminds me of a similar story from Fox News when I was growing up. Shook me up something fierce. I think it went something like this.

"Passing notes in class. It's all the rage with the kids these days and redefining the way kids communicate with each other. Kids can just use the available pencils, pens, and paper they have at their disposal every second of the day and with a few hand gestures they can share art, thoughts, jokes, or anything with each other, but put down that pad of paper though because it's also redefining how vulnerable your children are to child molesters.

Watch as I pass a note to Melissa asking for her address. She knew I was there, but she'd only met me 5 minutes ago. Look at how easy that was. Now what if pedophiles were passing notes to your kids in class? You can pass notes at a recommended distance of 30 feet. However, watch as I pass notes from 40 feet, 60 feet (nearly double the distance), 80 feet, 100 feet, 200 feet, and even outside the school! See how easy it was for me? Using this passing network a pedophile could collect information and find your child.

Even while driving in the car a pedophile can send notes by paper plane via the open-window passing network while you're in the front seat totally oblivious to what's happening. See, while passing notes may be fun you have to realize that it's more than that. It's a communication tool."

It's a good thing Fox News is still kindling that vigilante spirit.

Screw Pictochat, I'd be more afraid of what pedophiles are doing with that free hand Nintendo gave out a few years ago.

I have one of those! =O

The thing I laughed hardest about is that bit where he says "sure, she knew who I was, but she'd only just met me!" Yes, she'd only just met the guy introduced through her mother with the camera crew. RED FLAGS EVERYWHERE.

What IN THE FUCK is this free Nintendo hand nonsense? A silly ass joke right?

HAVING WINDOWS (the ones you look out of that is) IN YOUR CHILDREN'S BEDROOM EXPOSES THEM TO SEX PREDATORS.

"Hey kid, see you're using a DS"
"Yep"
"You wanna see MY stylus?"
"No"
"Aw"

Haha yeah, Nintendo gave away free hands just after the DS launched. The idea was for people to take photos or videos of them doing whatever and they could win stuff.

Infernals post proped for truth :D reminds me of that "wee for a wii" thing. The distance coverage for a DS was interesting since I've never seen it in use but other then that this was your usual "be careful with your kids!!!" crap

What a ridiculous article. Oh and..
