> Legally it is not entrapment I think the law is a bit more complicated than that. Anyone who commits a crime has some propensity. Entrapment is meant to draw a line between encouraging a person to commit a crime, and simply giving them an opportunity (i.e. a sting operation). Most sting operations (not entrapments) aim to catch habitual criminals - drug addicts, dealers, thieves, etc. Habitual criminals have a propensity to commit the offense, people who were talked into it by an agent do not.
