PLEASE LET'S NOT FORGET VICTIMS
It is very difficult for victims of human traffickers to
believe God exists or that anyone will ever be able to find them.
For them, there is no escape. Only moments of unimaginable torture. Please let's not forget them -

NO HOLIDAYS FOR VICTIMS
There are no holidays for human trafficking victims. No
Hanukkah, no Hindu festivals, no New Year’s Day, and no presents under the
Christmas tree.
No. For the victim only more torture, beatings, rapes, and
every other manner of humiliating and painful atrocities exist.
Children as young as two, teens, and women, and yes, even men,
captured and sold every thirty seconds. Traffickers lurk in malls, near
schools, anywhere and everywhere, tricking and luring their victims, or simply
snatching them off the street.
Don’t assume you know what they look like. They hide in
plain sight.
Please don’t forget these helpless victims. Please spread awareness.
Please share any and everything you can from this site and others. May God
forgive us, may the powers that be forgive us, if we are negligent in fighting
for these powerless captives held in chains by these brutal monsters.

386 CHILDREN RESCUED IN CHILD PORNOGRAPHY BUST
By Daniella Silva, NBC News
“Nearly 400 children have been rescued and 348 adults
arrested following an expansive and “extraordinary” international child
pornography investigation, Canadian police announced Thursday.
The three-year project, named Project Spade, began when
undercover officers with the Toronto Police Service Child Exploitation service
made contact with a Toronto man allegedly sharing “very graphic images” of
child sexual abuse in Oct. 2010, Toronto Police Service Chief William Blair
said at a press conference on Thursday.”

CHILDREN DON'T WAKE UP ONE DAY AND SAY "MOMMY, I WANT TO BE A PROSTITUTE"
PLEASE READ BELOW
Start
educating your children while they are young. Fear is not always a bad thing.
This kind of fear may very well save your child’s life one day.
“Half of the slaves in the world today are minors. Federal
law in the U.S. says that anyone under 18 used for sex in exchange for anything
of value is legally a victim of human trafficking. That “thing of value” might
be money, a sandwich, clothing, or a place to spend the night
Some young people are more at risk, like runaways and
throwaways, but anyone can become a victim. Traffickers are going into schools,
malls, theatres, game arcades, playgrounds – anywhere youths hang out – to find
victims. Some are kidnapped. Sometimes people they know and trust are actually
there to sell them and threaten their families if they tell. Sometimes their
own family members sell them.” (Source: bethejam.org)

When I was being tortured, raped, and otherwise brutalized,
I often spat with venom, "If you exist, God, where the HELL are you
now???” And I meant every word of it. I could not believe that love even
existed back then.
I have suffered immeasurably over the past 22 years because
of the rare virus I contracted (Tropical Spastic Paraparesis) while I was held
captive and sold for three years by traffickers.
But I no longer cry out, “God, where the hell are you now?”
My strength to persevere, my ability to smile, and my passion to fight and be
more than a voice for survivors and victims of this horrific crime comes from
this oft-times confusing Creator.
We all have different names for him/her … some of us don’t
believe in a Designer at all. Either way, that is ok. I am not here to preach.
What I have learned is that we are not robots. Evil men and
women exist and do evil things. But we have the power to stamp out these
spineless pieces of scum and wipe them off the face of the earth. This is
either our planet, or it isn’t, our choice.

IN OUR OWN BACKYARD
If it does not touch our lives, if we cannot see it; then, it must not exist – except it does exist in our own backyard.
