For all of you that have had your person stung by vigilanties please be prepared. I'm certainly not.



Facebook have now decided to start deleting any live videos older than 30 days, that's great you might be thinking, but nope there's more!!



regardless if it was last month or 10 years ago the vigilantes are re uploading their stings. This seems like it will be a constant thing. every time one is deleted they will be re uploaded. There will be no rest for families of those stung. Regardless of you remain or not.



just when I felt life was going to get a bit better for myself and my children this hits. Worried beyond belief.

It infuriates me how these groups are allowed to carry on - it doesn't happen with other crimes! Yes protests of awareness go ahead and I see that - we live in a democracy after all.

but....

The police and judicial system are paid to maintain the law and order of this country not these groups that just focus on ruining lives with their witch hunts.

Us family/children/friends that surround the guilty ARE innocent and should be treated so, not tarnished and bullied with the same brush. We've been through enough - leave us alone.

These vigilantes are very very strange people. I think they should be outlawed.

I noticed that the group who streamed my persons went to being a private group on Facebook not public. So you have to be a member of their group to view. It just sickens me. I didn't know they were doing this. It's soul destroying. X

Personally I wouldn't object to their activities if they just passed any evidence gathered straight to the police & let them take it forward, but the livestreaming etc is very very weird. I have no idea why anyone would want to upload or watch something like that. I think it must appeal to the sort of people who enjoy seeing others humiliated, but want to pretend their enjoyment is virtuous. I'm mystified that it's legal given the risk to innocent family members, including children.
