great thread...
the "white slave" trade makes me sick. Most people don't even know these things are going on or at best....think it's no big deal.
this is a huge problem globally but when all the major players around the globe are "partaking" in the trade in one way or another....
I fear there will not be any resolution to this problem.
In the USA...we ask where all the "missing" kids go every year.....the number is huge...like 800,000 (some of these are taken by family members) but most are not. And this is just in the USA.
I have always thought that it had to do with sex trade.
And.....why isn''t something being done about this?

Oh those horny Afghanis! when not trading women like cattle they are stool punching the neighbourhood boys....
Whats new?Just found out the world wont fit in your oyster?
Klassified
I have done a lot of research on this topic. Suffice it to say, trafficking in humans is MUCH more prevalent across the world than one can even imagine it is. And not all of it has to do with sex and slavery. Though the lions share is just that. Other purposes include...
Human hunting
Medical experimentation and research
death cages (gladiator style)
Mind control
and of course, abduction, illegal adoption, and re-education.
And btw. Men are not excluded. The demand and price is just lower.

Imagine if we could trade cattle for woman..... I would collect soooo many cattle........then trade for soooo many woman....
Imagine if we could incarcerate all those who traded in women and children and then dump them in a deep ocean. You could perhaps join them. You might want to think about what you just said.
I found it rather disgusting.
Edit - I can't believe someone actually starred you for that statement.
OP, great thread, look forward to the continuation of it. Sorry for the interruption.edit on 272am3030am122014 by Bassago because: shakes head further.

you know where this stuff doesn't happen too often?
NEVADA! why?
because it is LEGAL and PROFESSIONAL. the women that choose to do what they want with their body have the FREEDOM to do
Sex trafficking happens in Vegas too - it's just harder to detect due to it being normal - fake ID's and just under legal age is a huge problem. Why would the traffickers bypass one of the most sexualized cities in the world? They wouldn't and don't.
Thanks for whoever linked me to this thread - wish I would have found it before posting my own. Idea is to keep people aware.
the "white slave" trade makes me sick.

Meaning if the victims aren't white, you're good with it? You're kidding, right?

White slavery
...A term for human trafficking, used to distinguish it from the system of slavery that had been imposed on black people in the Americas.
...A euphemism for forced prostitution, especially in the context of human trafficking

Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. I do read a lot but obviously, not the same material you peruse. Had to look it up. Fortunately, I know how to do that too.
