Do you claim the country the child rapists were intending to travel to and rape children do not have laws against raping children?

I don't know the answer to that, however, it is the responsibility of that country to prosecute.

This is a slippery slope and can have a lot of unintended consequences.

The slope is not slippery at all.

The only thing slippery or a better term would be"slimy". is your bending over backwards to equate personal freedom with criminal predatory actions.

Perhaps the FBI should have just informed their counterparts in the foreign country destination of the rape plans of certain USA citizens to target their nations children, and wash their(our) hands of the whole repugnant incident?

I could live with that, as long as the rape plans were squashed prior to implementation, and you don't also demand the USA "do something" to help these noxious citizens avoid the cruel and unusual punishment the foreign country deems fit to meet out.

Is that a deal?
