   I'm sorry, as much as I loathe law enforcement infiltrating activist groups through any means whatsoever this is just ridiculous.  "The Honeypot" is a classic intelligence technique, and a good one. It normally relies on a woman to seduce a male target.  If that were the case here you'd have some group screaming about how making female officers engage in sexual relationships is sexism.
Puh-fuckin'-leeze.

True as that may (or may not) be, there's definitely something pretty creepy about these guys apparently being in very long-term relationships, just to spy for the state. Pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty creepy.
