I don't know if 'sympthetic' is the word, but aye, one or two of the videos have left me feeling a bit weird.
Take the 'bald nonce', for example; a guy who clearly has a learning disability, is more than probably socially excluded, and let's face it, a complete loner who had no chance of getting anywhere with a female his own age. He's an easy target for these groups because of his, erm, lack of capacity of making an informed decision, naivety and desperation. One of these groups has made an incredibly vulnerable guy, far more vulnerable by plastering him all over the internet and turned him into some bizarre UK internet sensation, for all the wrong reasons. By all means, catch the guy in the act, submit the evidence to the police and let the justice system run its course.
