Yup. And the fact that a adult female cop was waiting for Ritter instead of a sexy minor is immaterial. Ritter initiated the come-on and set up the rendevouz with the idea that a teen Lolita would be on the other end. No one forced him to troll the net, post his fantasies and then try to act on them by driving his car to the pick-up place. Ritter was warned once by the cops not to pursue this sick stuff, but he couldn't control his urges. He deserves what he gets--the scorn and distaste from people who abhor this sort of behavior.
And I would still condemn Ritter about his sick obsession with underaged girls even if he were pro-Bush and not defending Saddamn Hussein by visiting Baghdad or accepting money from that twisted regime to produce a "There are no WMD here" video, as well as his co-authorship with the libelous liberal William Pitt!!!
... No one forced him to troll the net, post his fantasies and then try to act on them by driving his car to the pick-up place. ... Yep, and it isn't as if Ritter pursued a young woman only to find out later that she was underage. Ritter went after at least two girls knowing their age (14 and 16).
Anyone want to bet that Ritter has never tried (more than the twice documented times) to nail a few underage girls and had acted on that impulse to completion?
