    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.

    my wounded sense of dignity?? what are you on about?

    i want to live through this life not to just bitch on this message board or make jokes like some, but to also help the world however i can

    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??? ;)

    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:

    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.

    Me being on it isn't strange at all. Genie and I have a long, storied history of bitter hatred. Like Finland and Mexico.

    i am resurrecting this thread
  • 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.

    in the 70's i knew a guy that would get girls wacked out on angel dust and sell them into the white slave trade.

    glad you agree. but no it wasn't chocolate that did it, it was walking in Trafalgar sq and seeing a que of people lining up to see a something on human trafficking, including images. I personally wouldn't go to watch this sort of thing, because i would feel very upset....i also don't think they need to have pictures, all they need to do is talk to people and tell how it affects victims.

    when i found out i fired him. and told his current girl what he was planning and she ran. i hope he's dead by now. i saw him a few years later and he was standing on corners in chicago playing his guitar for donations. (or so he said). he actually came to ask for his job back.
