Unfortunately, if you allow thousands of people into any one place at any given time, there are always gonna be a small percentage of, umm, undesirable people there, whether they be thieves, paedophiles, gang members, whatever. I guess a lot of parks, particularly Disney and the like, are prime targets for people who want to look at/abduct children, simply because one of the primary audience groups is families. At least the guy was unsuccessful, thankfully.

It really can't be that hard to kidnap someone from that park, all you'd have to say is "hey little kid, you want to go some place that's actually FUN?"

 

Guess Jimbo here couldn't come up with a clever enough line to draw the kid away. He should have fun in prison, with that purdy long hair and all.

It doesnt suprise me that this happened at WOF, they have pratically NO security. When I went, I gave the people my ticket and just walked in, no metal detectors or ANYTHING! I didnt believe I was in the park already, I was like "there has to be more than that!" As for the six year old, its a good thing they ended up safe.

^ But, I've seen parks with no-one at the gates...like they trust you have a ticket to get in the park.

I think not having Metal Detectors is a good sign of the park. Even if the park is in KC, it's at least in a good part. The signs must work, because I don't see anyone carrying gats around at the park.

^Yes, and they do search bags quite thoroughly.

This is scarry. I hard stories like this about kids that almost kidnapped at Disney and thought it just stories but now I see things like that happen.

^Didn't you know that there's a civilization of pedophiles living in Space Mountain?
