Regiment: "Entrapment"? As far as I know the law (i.e. not very well), isn't it only entrapment if the undercover cop suggests the activity? If the cop pretending to be a 14-year-old girl says "Let's have sex" and the other guy says yes, that's entrapment. If the other guy says it first and the cop agrees, it's a sting, right?

jaimeastorga2000: They don't probably mean "entrapment" in the precise legal sense, but the general idea instead.
