What are we going to do about the New Mexico Attorney General? At this point, I almost feel pity for the taxpayers who voted for these monsters. Look, the Internet can be a very dark place and sometimes its citizens have silly ways of dealing with it. Take for example Pedobear, who managed to make his way across Japanese 2chan boards, into American 4chan boards. There he became the identification tool to "signal moderators and other users that illegal pornographic content had been posted", at least according to Know Your Meme.
Over the past few years he has developed quite a rap sheet popping up on various government or law enforcement radar, but in the end Pedobear is still just trying make the world a safer place. Just like he did back when he was Safety Bear. I think that what we all need to realize is Safety Bear never wanted this job in the first place and now he is a criminal because of it. Shame on all of us.

I'm laughing so hard at this!

ok, i'm pretty sure the majority of you guys arent parents, i am very well aware that pedobear is dark humor but what about those that dont really know about it at all? all they see is a guy dressed up in a cute little bear suit, do you expects kids to know who pedobear is? are you going to go up to parents and tell them that dude in the bear suit might be a pedophile? the story isnt what YOU guys think about pedo bear, it's about what pedophiles are doing with Pedobear. It's not really dark humor anymore when the whole thing becomes a complete joke which appears to be what the main problem is

Angry parents and peta would get along graet together.

I find that report hilarious. Of course it's dark humor, you paranoid idiots! Pedophiles don't use the character to lure kids, what would be the point?

I find it irritating that news is willing to show a pretty much non existing threat such as pedo bear. But, refuse to warn people about places like walmart, where child ubduction is way more common and serious.

What's wrong with Pedobear? He's an early warning signal that "This F***** be Fucked up!"
