It happens. We all from time to time get into fights on the internet. Especially in sports card trading groups as it often has the added burden of money changing hands.
A true sign of despotism is when you shift your attention away from the person you are arguing with and onto their children. Especially when one of these children is obviously very underage and your comments are sexual in nature.
Meet Brandon LaFrance of Warren Michigan.
The image on Joseph’s profile showed him and his 9 year old daughter. 9 years old! This “man” had the nerve to say to another man that I’m going to come over and visit your young daughter. The context clues leave his intention to be easily implied.
Fellas this type of banter has no place in any sports card group whatsoever. When we allowed this to be posted in Sports Card Scammer Tracker we got replies like “How is this a scam” and “16 is the age of consent.”
These two statements ignore a few key points as the group isn’t only for scams and the daughter is 9 years old and there is no consent here. In my opinion the threat is no different then oh yeah? Then I’m going to come over there and rape your young daughter.
It’s absolutely disgusting and should be called out every single time it happens.
As a father I hope I never meet this guy because I’ll end up losing my freedom.
