stop human trafficking

edited September 2007 in A Moving Train
*edit* today in Trafalgar Sq was a temporary outside exhibition of human trafficking. It made me sad and disgusted, cause it reminded me about few things i learned some years back. Then i saw they did a petition, which i signed. And so should YOU if you live near Trafalgar Sq get your arse down there and sign the petition or just somehow get involved. Or just sign a petition in a link provided below.
about 3 years i ago i didn't know this was going on. we live in a 21 century, and people still get treated as slaves. They don't even know this is going to happen to them, until it's too late, their passports get confiscated and
they are kept under control!!!

i'm giving you a link

http://www.stopthetraffik.org/

please if you can get involved and sign global declaration

    Yes, I personally will end this human suffering, through the goodwill of my heart and the power of love for my fellow man.

    yep, it's quite disgusting :o . Apparently Ireland's seen as a bit of a haven for it in Europe :( and the government are supposed to be drafting up big laws to deal with it and to prevent it... I'll believe it when I see it though. It's very sad.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    I always think of this whenever I hear people talking about how far we've come as a race. This shows that we're still primitives as far as I'm concerned, we haven't gone anywhere. It's absolutely disgusting.

    Yes, I like to give a good first impression, then subsequently squash expectations like a mouse under a steamroller.

    sorry, but I generally don't sign stuff... anyone with an ounce of sense knows that this is despicable... a few signatures won't make it even more so. The media have been doing quite a good job over here of highlighting it and forcing our government into making new legislation.

    ive watched a couple of movies with human trafficking as a plot line, and it really disturbs me. The more awareness we raise about it the better. I think the scariest part about it all, is that it is relatively easy to do if you have a gullible person...it could happen to anyone really. And once its happened, it seems quite difficult to escape.

    Argh Genie! You wound me. I see I'm on your enemies list. That makes me cry.

    I wonder if that list actually means anything at all, or whether it's just a random banner of "alleigance", something that is irrelevant for any purpose other than to satisfy your ego...

    :cries:

    LMAO!!! at least it will appease your own wounded sense of dignity and empathy for your fellow man. :)

    slavery is as old as time itself. man does not love his fellow man. and he will seek every opportunity to take advantage of him.
    i imagine it is somewhat instinctual for some. you know law of the jungle and all that.
    hear my name
    take a good look
    this could be the day
    hold my hand
    lie beside me
    i just need to say
  • Alex_CoeAlex_Coe Posts: 762
    I better not piss off Genie again or he'll put me on his "extra bad enemies" list.

    Not he, but a she. Also you are already in my "wanted dead or alive list" lol, so it's too late, but you know what you can do to change that???

    how about you stroking my ego??? ;)

    I don't know what is more strange...the Genie keeps a list in her sig, or that you're on it....haha
    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.
