They're pedophile hunters in the same way Saul Goodman is a criminal lawyer.

I feel like there should be some sort of obscure punctuation to make this clear: A hunter who is a pedophile or a hunter of pedophiles.
Maybe a semi-comma or something.

semi-comma

Would a semi-comma be a space in the same sense that a semicolon is just before colon?

In 1644, in Richard Hodges' The English Primrose, it is written:

At a comma, stop a little; [...] At a semi-colon, somewhat more; [...] At a colon, a little more than the former; [...] At a period, make a full stop;

Source.

Maybe like a tiny plus sign where the comma goes?
