[QUOTE="JB Books, post: 1285324, member: 6889"] From the tulsaworld.com website The Tulsa Police Child Exploitation Unit released a warning Wednesday that apparently originated from a California law enforcement agency in response to what some say is a world-wide internet joke. Police are warning people to beware of "Pedobear," an animated photo of a bear that internet users associate with pedophilia on discussion boards -- without actually being involved with pedophilia. According to the release, the image is used as a way for pedophiles to communicate with each other. In addition to millions of internet users who use the photo regularly as a sometimes vulgar joke, police are warning the public that the photo is a sign that a pedophile is somewhere nearby. Since Monday numerous internet blogs have reported the warning as a hoax. Regardless, Tulsa Police recommend the public be aware of the image, which according to the release, "his cute face and non-threatening appearance negate the truth of his sinister, much darker side."
