Sex trafficking

[Benevolent1991]

Personally I support this new law. But I wonder where all they are seeing all the minors they talk about. It is fairly rare to see minors. I have noticed that there appears to be more pimps around. Many of these criminals operate very openly. I have always disliked pimps. They drive up prices and cause a lot of problems. I have heard that the pimps are ones responsible for the high prices on the west coast.

Here's the problem, some minors are in on it. They see it as a fast way to collect money so they will willingly say they are 24 or etc, run ads, then of course when they get caught, they want to save themselves. I been looking at several cases and some are runaways, maybe forced, but others bring me to this conclusion. There's a case where a doctor was on seeking arrangements. He matched with a chick. Flew her out a few times and turns out she was 16. He was charged with human trafficking but later it was dismissed. There is a case in Georgia where a girl was a minor. Her mom worked overnights and left her with a friend. Articles say the friend would give her drugs and alcohol and pimp her out while engaging with her himself. They were caught during a vehicle traffic stop. The article said that went on for 3 months. So I mean for three months, grades aren't slipping? She couldn't tell mom? Friends aren't noticing a personality change? The article said he did give her some of the profit. Draw your own conclusion. Now all the men that thought they were getting a consenting adult become fucked.

I agree with what you say but I think prostitution should be decriminalized rather than legalized for obvious legal reasons (LIKE KEEPING GOVERNMENTAL REGULATORS OUT OF THE PICTURE).

Yes it should be.

I totally agree with Baltimonger. We really don't need to give these anti's any more ammunition to use against us. They are doing quite well without our help.

As I have said many times before, prostitution should be legalized and no stigma should be attached to those who procure sex or the SW's who provide it. I also believe prostitution should be a voluntary decision on part of the girl and she shouldn't be forced into it.

Regarding the argument that drug use force women into prostitution is not a valid argument since it was a free choice on their part to use drugs. Since women are paid for their service, I don't consider them victims either as many would like to portray them.

Personally, I don't like this thread. It inherently gives anti-sex trade adocates a platform.

Baltimonger again takes a complex issue and distills it to its essence in 100 words or less.

Almost all of the statistics and opinions stated in the story are dirtectly taken from Trafficking Victims Protection Act, H.R. 972 (2005), which was passed by Congress 12/14/2005. The support was bipartisan, led by the religious right and the feminist left. The bill is marketed as an anti-trafficking law, but the actual legal language reads as generally nothing more than an anti-prostitution statute. This affects all prostitution, not just massage parlors or illegally trafficked workers.

Also, the girl in the story, even if you accept it at face value (which I find most difficult to do - all second hand, supposedly You Mi's story, but almost no quotes from You Mi; the other main sources of info were LE here and in Korea, the huge bullshitters trying to "save" the AMP workers) was at the least extremely naive. Never heard of a credit card? In Korea, one of the world's most repaidly modernized, electronically dialed-in societies? MPs in Korea offer customers extras but those in America offer nothing? And her mother was involved in the industry?

What about the girl You Mi rode with, making a repeat (2nd or 3rd?) trip to America? Was she suckered again? What about You Mi's friends/co-workers who had paid their debt and were working for housing, clothing, food, etc? Do the rest of us work for something else?!

I did feel sorry for You Mi regarding her treatment by the border driver. What a pig. And some of the customers deserve to get beat to a pulp for abusing the women. Truly the scum of our earth.

But You Mi ended up w/ a green card and an American boyfriend (hmm... former customer... guess not all of those customers are assholes). Then she threw her friends, co-workers and her industry under the bus.

Sex trafficking & San Francisco story
(http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/articl...NGR1LGUQ41.DTL )

I am very disgusted by sex traffickers. This is one reason why I go with SW's. A SW has the option of quitting even if she has a pimp. SW's are always cheaper as well.
