How much do you really know about Human Trafficking ?
Would you recognize the signs of a slave if you saw them ? Do you know what You Can Do to help stop this inhumanity ?
Take a moment today, think of those who hide in plain site; those who are silent and in bondage; those who will never know freedom. Commit to knowing the truth about Human Trafficking - and why there are more slaves today, than at anytime in history.
We Know your heart will bleed when you think of those 3 and 4 year olds sold into a life of forced bondage and brutality; never to know the simple freedom of being able to just sit and play.
Child Sex Slaves are the fastest growing segment of the abused population. unbelievable.. even the constant police stings, television show dragnets and numerous talk show set ups don't seem to deter these crimes. Why ?
there are children in America who are slaves, yes.
The Internet is said to have increased pedophilia more quickly than at anytime in history. there are more new registered sexual predators than at anytime in history; and many of them are children themselves. these children are the collateral damage because they were more than likely abused themselves before they became abusers. international child sex rings have proliferated so quickly that law enforcement agencies are hard pressed to keep up with even a fraction of their traffic and trade in pictures, movies and other items of exploitation.

If We Don't Talk About it Who Will ?

@BringBackPluto - I wonder how many of us look at these empty faces and turn off the eyes to our hearts ?
maybe we can reach just one, so that they free one. Thanks for your comment Pluto.
That's a reminder for all of those gullible souls, who thought that slavery ended over 100 years ago.
This was a compelling post. We really do need to be more aware that all of this is taking place. The Internet is rife with predators. Add that to sanctioned slavery and you have diaster upon disaster. We cannot afford to turn our heads away.
