So because of one mistake you're going to take the selfish route?
Me thinks you're just looking for a justification in not signing up and this fit the bill. As with most things in life, mistakes happen but if you constantly focus on the few mistakes and ignore the huge amount of correct decisions, you're going to make some very dubious decisions.

Sometimes, Sharia law has it's benefits, if you know what I mean.
In all, Bell was sentenced on 12 charges. The charges and respective sentences are as follows:
Count one: conspiracy to commit sex trafficking: 360 months’ imprisonment
Counts two and three: sex trafficking: 180 months’ imprisonment on each count
Counts four through seven: coercion or enticement to travel in interstate commerce for prostitution: 240 months’ imprisonment on each count
Count eight: conspiracy to transport in interstate commerce for prostitution: 60 months’ imprisonment
Counts nine through 12: transportation in interstate commerce for prostitution: 120 months’ imprisonment on each count
All the sentences were imposed to run concurrently.

What we are seeing is the price people are willing to pay for mortality and the people who are willing to make a profit from either maiming or killing a child in the process. It's horrific and I don't see this going away unless an alternative is allowed.
Scientists can grow headless mice in laboratories by removing a single gene. Why would you want to do that? Well if you can grow headless humans then you could organ harvest their bodies without seemingly interfering with religion and human rights. No head no soul kind of reasoning. Maybe this would and could help with eliminating the need for human organ trafficking.
It's a harsh reality combating another harsh reality but it's the only option I got.

We have a whole lot of prisoners who could be harvested, instead of wasting good quality euthanasia solutions. Why not? At least they would be contributing to society..

Prisoners CAN be rehabilitated and become contributing members to society. I don't believe harvesting the organs from people who may have made a mistake a time in their life is the way to go... I say, back to the drawing board...
Now death row is another conversation....

Say you work your tale off, paying all the bills, your wife stays at home. You come home early one day because you were laid off, you are beyond stressed cause bills are piling up and you find your wife upstairs with your close friend. You snap... You put both in the hospital and end up in jail... Mistake... Justified... LOL... I tried to put together a fun hypothetical for this discussion... Just saying, mistakes can happen....

As if you wouldn't do it to save your own child!
The parents don't probably even know about it though. They have probably just gone to some back water medical people who said they have access to organs.
Though a 50% rise year on year is very troubling isn't it?edit on 20-10-2013 by DaRAGE because: (no reason given)
My God you would have another child killed for their organs to save yours? i can't even believe someone would think such a thing besides say it openly. You should give your own organs to your child. Yes someone elses child is as precious as my own!

Little girl sold for ‘organ harvesting’
A young girl has been smuggled out of Africa and sold for organ harvesting, authorities have revealed. It is the first case of a child being trafficked into Britain for the express intention of providing organs for people desperate for a transplant, reports the Telegraph.
The girl, whose identity has been protected, was taken from Somalia and smuggled into the UK so that her organs could be removed and sold. A British government report revealed human trafficking has reached record levels, rising by 50 per cent in the last year.
This has got to be the most despicable thing I have ever heard of. If there ever was a case for the death penalty this has got to be it and that's all I'll say about it.
