Yeah, prostitution should be legal
Everytime I hear an argument for prositution being legalized, it makes me want to slap that person into reality. 99.9% of women do NOT check off prostitution as a career choice. Places where sex-for-sale is legal are hubs for human trafficking. Get your head out of the sand and think. Would you want your daughter/niece/sister/motherContinue reading “Yeah, prostitution should be legal”
Silence is not complacency
Apparently, the fact that I blogged against child slavery pissed someone off. They called me a curse word. I have a word to say. Whatever. I know I’ve been silent on human trafficking, child slavery and the sex trade for a while now. Frankly, I don’t know what to say. The subject makes me…emotional toContinue reading “Silence is not complacency”
It’s Friday night, and

I hope that one day I meet you. I cannot pretend that I can wrap my mind around why men think it is acceptableContinue reading “Hello my child”
Child slaves
I just watched Law and Order and I’m angry. I am disgusted that there are so many people in the world who are willing to buy children, bring them to the US so that they can have a “better life.” SERIOUSLY? I know that conditions in Haiti and so many other countries are absolutly horrific.Continue reading “Child slaves”
More questions than answers
I am becoming consumed with human trafficking. I want to make a difference. I want to be a part of helping to set the captives free. I have a lot of ideas to help families get out of poverty so that they have an option other than selling their children into slavery. What perplexesContinue reading “More questions than answers”

Where’s the justice?
Today I went into Philadelphia with my aunt, her niece and nephew, my sister, my nephews and my niece. I used to be the person who wanted them to be independent. I never wanted the kids to be afraid to walk alone into the bathroom. I wanted them to be open to new people. OverContinue reading “Where’s the justice?”
