Yes, this kind of thing has gone on forever; however, the internet and phones now make it infinitely easier to spread images around.

Saying "Old news" as a way to dismiss it just helps normalize what is genuinely gross behavior, PP. Before you leap in to say "But it's LEGAL!" like some PPs here -- yes, it's not illegal, but it's still invasive and gross, and should be called out every time.

Make sure that your DD is never alone, parks safely, carries a pepper spray, has her location sharing on.

OP here. Exactly what I thought as well. One man = pervert. Two together = potential human traffickers

Location sharing is critical. Verizon can take up to 24 hours to provide that if not on.

Human trafficing? Are you a qanon nut? Tell us honestly. You are a drama loving nut job.

That was confirmed in Website feedback.

Q'Non. No. Never go to their site. I do know there's human trafficking in FFX county and it seems police were aiding and abetting. I'm simply interested in answering my DD's texts when she feels unsafe.

Thanks for verifying the bolded.

Can you please give me three positive reasons why two 50+ year old men would whip out a cell phone to film young girls they don’t know?

Since when is a 25 year old woman a “young girl”?

DP from much earlier. Is this OP replying immediately above? You mention "answering my DD's texts" -- so are you OP?

I ask because didn't you say at first you were teling her to call the cops, yet now you say police were "aiding and abetting" sex trafficking--? I'm confused and suspect this PP isn't OP.

Whoever this is, it's pretty irresponsible to toss out "police were aiding and abetting" sex trafficking in FFX county, without any supporting links or details whatsoever. I have no doubt trafficking goes on here but if cops are complicit you need to point us to some objective account of that or you need to stop spreading rumors. Rumors like that make people less likely to call on police when police might be needed. Support it, please. Citing DCUM "opinions" does not count. Not defending all cops here, just noting that baselessly saying stuff like that can influence people to fail to ask for needed help.

What was confirmed in Website Feedback? That the OP is a troll or that the OP is dramatic? Np here.

Nice way to dismiss, or even normalize, the idea that people filming other people in public is worth merely a shrug.

Don't pull out the "But it's not illegal" card. Just because something is not illegal does not mean it's fine to do, or that the subject of the "it's not illegal" filming should just suck it up and be OK with it.

NP here but you need to calm down the hysterics. It is legal. Think about the other side of the issue. Lots of those horribly behaved racist people were filmed and that isn't a bad thing. Many of them thought like you and demanded people erase video or assaulted people filming them. Guess who was arrested?

Frankly I would have filmed the guys back and let them know I would post their creepy behavior on social media.

Where did I say we needed to stop all filming? I didn't. I said that it's wrong to dismiss filming of unwilling participants as OK. Not the same thing. Yes, it's legal; that does not make it any less invasive, creepy and inappropriate. Many actions which are invasive, creepy and inappropriate are still technically not breaking the law. Or is that just "hysterics"?

"It's legal" is a VERY low bar for behavior. You're fine with shrugging and saying nothing because "it's legal"? The barista was right to intervene and the young woman was right to be creeped out. The police could have done nothing because it's legal, of course, but that does not mean that people being filmed or those who know the situation is clearly skeevy should just stand there and say, oh well, it's legal, so I won't say a thing. Sure, I agree that filming the pervs is a good idea, but an upset person who feels threatened in the moment might not think of that.

Comparing this situation to the filming of "those horribly behaved racist people" (you mean the Capitol rioter idiots) is nuts. If you can't see the difference between pervs filming a woman in a Starbucks and people filming the obviously public events of a mass riot -- you really don't know how to think subtly.

This site has turned into a juvenile’s dream. Hope Jeff makes a lot of money!

It is really disturbing that a 25 year old’s first instinct when faced with a troubling situation was to text her mother. What has happened to this generation?

Also, it’s creepy and gross but not a crime to film in public. Calling the police was not the right advice.

Incorrect. These guys were likely involved in sex trafficking.

OMG. You need therapy. Now. Do you have daughters and teach them this nonsense? I hope they are smarter than you. Tell me all about Comet Ping Pong.

Tell me about CNN employees

Hahaha. Human traffickers don’t look for victims in suburban Starbucks. They look for economically vulnerable and isolated young women, not 20 somethings who are so spoiled and coddled that they call Mommy when someone looks at them wrong.

OP here. She knows Mommy takes no f-ing prisoners. LOL. She alerts me so I know what’s what and can work from my end while they work things from their end. Police loved that she called me.

Did everyone applaud?

Didn't have to. Police like involved parents

ROFL

Really? Not a chance anyone is abducting white women from a Starbucks in Reston.

You are correct. They photograph them, get their license plate number, get someone to look that up, get an address then abduct them while they are getting into their car. The photographs are to shop them around to prospective customers.

You are insane. This is hysterical qanon type lies.
