    Stupid California Police Warn Parents of Pedobear, the ‘Pedophile Mascot’ (Updated)

    “As funny as the police warning may be, it’s scary that people who simply enjoy Internet humor could be branded as pedophiles by the police or by people in their community due to one overzealous sheriff’s department and the tone-deaf news outlets that have picked up their warning.”

      I can understand this, but I feel bad for the few poor suckers that bought a pedobear suit/car sticker/etc. simply because they’re Internet-y or thought it was funny, and are now going to get arrested and labeled a sex offender for life.
