Thanks to No Quarter for keeping me up to the minute on the ACORN funds available for prostitution rings and brothels: HERE and HERE.
Am I losing my mind? There is actually a taxpayer financed, government program in the USA that would help someone traffic in 13 year old girls from El Salvador?
At the time that the stories above were breaking... I was sitting in a bookstore reading Half The Sky. After listening to this interview with the authors, Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn. Their book is about the abysmal treatment of women, worldwide. Including the millions of girls that are trafficked into brothels every year.
I guess I was naive enough to believe that none of those girls could possibly be coming to the U.S.??
Shows what I know....

Speaking from the perspective of someone who helped abused children heal and recover some part of their lives from abusive families... I cannot imagine what these children might have scarring their souls and bodies...
ReplyDeleteI am originally from Baltimore and still a resident of Maryland and I think anyone whose head doesn't spin around at the mention of importing children for sex slavery ought to be prosecuted..but noooo the MARYLAND D. A. is looking into prosecuting the ciizen journalists for breaking wiretapping laws http://wbal.com/apps/news/templates/story.aspx?articleid=35357&zoneid=2
Where is our SENATOR BARBARA MIKULSKI NOW??
I'm thinking American citizens who are outraged by ACORN's obvious complicity in the U.S. taxpayer-financed sex slave trafficking of young women should push for ACORN and all of its Congressional and WH supporters to be charged under the RICO Act (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act). This act also protects whistleblowers from retaliation (e.g., the citizen journalists). Where is SoS HRC on this, since it involves young women from other countries? It definitely appears to be a matter that falls under the purview of the State Department. http://criminal-law.freeadvice.com/criminal-law/rico-cases.htm
