Al Roker with the Video Vigilante (re: Child Prostitution)

[letmebegofindurself]

Well this i think is really bad underage girls being treated like this and taken advantage of this I have to say needs more notice. They need to help these children and get those pimps. That was horrible how that pimp hit that girl. Well this makes me understand a bit more of whats going on. Really be careful man it looks dangerous these pimps look like they are willing to commit violence so really be careful. all the best man.

[808Lana]

I think you're a wonderful man. I'm so glad that you are doing this.

[dnave21]

sex addicts

[Joewalshe38]

You are doing great work.

An inspiration for the rest of us.

[JakeSerpent]

I love Al Roker.

[Ritercrazy]

Too bad the victim is called a prostitute when actually she's a little girl being used by pedophiles. She's not a prostitute, she's a victim! Grrrrr Using the word prostitutes implies she has a choice. What? The law now says it's ok to rape little girls? All you have to do is call her a prostitute and it's not pedophelia? BULL!

[snickbick]

@Ritercrazy i agree

[ShoryoTombo]

This is a very interesting video. Although, I am not suprise or shocked. I'm so glad JohnTV is exposing and shining the light on this.

The question is, how does the police treat the girls when they get arrested? Just book them? They need guidance and rehabilitation.  They are victims. Want to get rid of prostitutions? Go after the Johns and Pimps. Those are the ones that need to be treated like criminals.

[ameliasera]

much kudos video vigilante for informing the wife of her husband's solicitation of prostitutes!

[comethat2car]

it is just wrong.

[Lux248]

This is just sick. In my opinion Pimps, Rapists, and Child Molesters should be either neutered or castrated ( CSS: Compulsory Sterilization Surgery). Human Traffickers should either have life in prison or be put to death. There is NO EXCUSE for these types of debaucheries. I DARE somebody to try to give me one. I DARE you.

[origen01]

i agree 100%. human trafficking should have an automatic life in prison penalty.

as for pedophiles--i don't think they should ever be put back on the streets once they serve their time. they should be kept in a special facility cause letting them out and trying to track them is not working.

[dlss87]

babies why? why?

[takomaguy]

I don't know Al Roker, but he just strikes me as a quality human being.

[champwagner]

most people on camera who train to be likable seem to appear that way huh weird

[JustMeTris]

I would like to Thank you for putting this on here. I am a survivor! Thank you! Awareness one by one brings change!

[yourtango]

Great work.

[DemNaReady]

[swede357]

[computermech]

I'd love to see these pimps shot to death.

[Meeks986]

[will79601]

what if she was your daughter or sister would you pimp her then

[DemNaReady]

its temping to pimp a lil bitch that you got no atachment 2, bt a real man wont do that

[bigleroygym]

THANK YOU, Brian Bates, for caring about these girls...people have got to MOBILIZE and come together to FORCE our elected officials to seriously attack this problem!

[BoZo85PL]

Well if the cops use the hookers themselves what do you think is gonna happen... Thats why they don't want to arrest them.

[LauchX1337]

child prostitution is cool

[HJW018]

You are a sick person.

[shadylpfan]

You sick fuck, I'd like to put a bullet in your head, burn your corpse and piss on your ashes. I hope you burn in hell you sick fuck.

[BamaBabydoll]

It is so disturbing what goes on out there!

[goldenzoltan]

I am filled with a terrible anger. Why arent people killing these pimps? The rape of innocence is sick. For the love of money a pimp will grind a child's life to despair and madness.

[buckeye5555]

Have you ever been threatened by a pimp? Do you fear retribution from any of them? Just wondering, I think what you do takes cojones, man, but I sure wouldn't do it without exercising my 2nd amendment rights either.

[Yetharius]

This film talks about 'underage' prostitutes, but the fact is, all those women shown in this video were in fact 30-40 years of age.

I wish people wouldn't make up stories just to toot their own horn and try to get famous.

Since when is sex with a 30 year-old being a 'pedophile'?

[videovigilanteokc]

Actually, you are wrong. Most of the footage used in this show was filmed by me. Many of the hookers were teens. However, because of liabilty, they only used footage of teens over the age of 16. We have girls as young as 12 walking our streets, but we have enough sense not to air those images.

[BamaBabydoll]

Unfortunately, the hard life of a prostitute probably ages these girls faster than anything a tanning bed can do to a Cali starlet!

[floatpool]

Local officials?? half of them are involved

[PA65000]

America activate! Take out your video camera's and expose crime to your local official's!!

[greenlightbandit]

keep up the good work

[mooker5600]

Its great what the videovigilante does,need more like this guy.

[byoll]

thats terrible if the guys get caught with a underage girl do they not have to register as a sex offender?

[JOLT711ML]

I say take Europe's stance on underage drinking and sex and drugs. Not legal but tolerated and controlled.

[Scheeser]

Here in europe there are still pimps controlling the hookers and using violence... gang raping them to make them do what they want - you don't solve a problem by legalizing it. The only thing here is that the act itself is not criminalized - I love the video vigilante - he is a hero - the good people ALL should stand up!

[coachbagqueen]

Now take it to Capital Hill. make stiffer laws for these crimes. preachers such as creflo dollar and eddie long others close their eyes on this problem because it don't affect them personally. I would like to see them actually Stand fro what is right. Some of these big time preachers and church folk are cowards and hypocrites. The political leaders turn their backs on the problem. War is at home in America.

[coachbagqueen]

Pimps are everywhere. they even tried to get me. Pimps are heartless. Snoop Dog pimps women. He is a rapper. The rap/hiphop industry traffic girls all the time. They rap about pimping. Boycott tv radio Macy's music stores etc.

[Rasputin677]

i wanna be a whore killer.

I'll start with the very young whores who do it for free

[mangazos]

why is it that all pimps in these clips are blacks? what's wrong with black men?

[coachbagqueen]

yeah y is that? N the rap hip hop industry and NBA/NFL this is overlooked or covered up. In the book Confessions of video vixen she tells it all. She tells how young girls are being exploited. Pimps are well respected in the rap culture. The rappers are making videos everyday. Check out Luda, BET Uncut,Snoop. Bishop Magic Don Juan is who they immulate. So don't buy/ listen to their songs. Boycott Macy's and stores that support this. Don't buy Sean John, RocaWear Phat Pharm Baby Phat.

[rushking84]

Nothings wrong with black men its just that area.... That'd be like me saying " why are all these hoes white women? whats wrong with white women?" thats not fair either....

[TakeItBrendanLSD]

exactly notice how many white 40+ guys are the ones paying

[expert2020]

it's because black men are blamed for everything no matter who commits the crime. they only show you video on black men. it's just as many white guys that are pimps. also their is just as many if not more white prostitutes than their are black. just true facts! and what about most of those johns that are picking up those young prostitutes? what color are they genius?

[goofymccoy]

just because more of the ones on film happen to be black, doesn't mean theres something wrong with black men. hell, they could outnumber other races OFF-camera too, its not about color. its about situation. these people think what they do is acceptable, and therefore they do it. thats the problem, not skin color.

[smartz100]

As long as it's illegal, it will be run by the underground. Legalize it, control it, and make illegal pimping laws more extreme. Have the girls (18+)checked, and protected, in a designated area. It wont go away, but we can take the control away fom the pimps, and be more humane to the girls. And give them education and a way out.

[coachbagqueen]

what is sad is that u have a lot of girls think that this is cool. we have to reach out more to the girls and promote self esteem in schools. Some girls our wild and think theirr bodies are their moneymaker. Moneymaker is a song by Ludacris.

[JaneCochran]

The government also acts as a pimp via fining. And kids who are desperate to escape severe problems at home find themselves underground when they run, where the pimps & pervs hunt them. Kids can't even stay in homeless & abuse shelters without parental consent. The laws hurt kids, they don't protect them. Which pimps and the system both appreciate.

[mybabyjames]

Your wrong about prostitution only exist in america. It is all over the world actually it is worst in other countries than it is here in america.. I think that if these women are out there doing this there should be an institution to send them to immediately. Don't even both with the courts. Send them there to get help an get away from some of those dangerious pimps out there.

[stracinsrt4]

he was being sarcastic

[kjkidd]

He was being sarcastic

[MapleJunkie]

This just makes America look more shitier then it already is. 5/5!

[chuckgriffith]

yeah because everyone in the world knows that prostitution only exists in America...get real.

[chasamo]

im in canada a city called oshawa. i live on a street that has hookers and crack dealers. and to top it all of i live 11 houses down from the hells angels head qurters

[slippyal2]

this is sick!!! Girls being used like this. I believe if you want to be a prostitue it's your choice. Just not for kids or by schools.
