    That's good trivia, but the headline of the story is, as most are these days, grossly misleading and basically clickbait. It's like saying I had a box of flour and was going to make pancakes, but my wife wasn't hungry for pancakes, so I made some biscuits.
    It's amazing what you hear when you take time to listen.

    Sorry, I wasn't commenting on your content, rather the headline Yahoo wrote...I liked the post and historical trivia.

    nope, I actually have no idea who is involved in that crap, if they're foreigner's or Americans ? but I would guess there are sick freaks all over the world.

    So when it happens in the US, it's not the fault of our culture, but when it happens somewhere else that you have little knowledge of, you attribute it to the culture. This is a good example of ignorance breeding prejudice.

    You stated an opinion, not a fact. I hope you know the difference. Blaming sex trafficking on one culture, but not blaming a different culture where the same thing happens is an opinion.

    Maybe you forgot what you just posted about attributing sex trafficking to their culture, but not to American culture when it happens here. And I think I've been pretty mellow in response to your prejudicial comment.

    Then read a little more about the fundamentalist LDS sects. In BC we just had three people convicted for trafficking underage girls across the border to LDS leaders in the US.
