As I walked out of a post office today a guy in front of me dropped a magazine out of his bundle...I tried to catch him & return it, but he drove away before I could catch him...might be a good thing, the magazine was "kiddie porn", all about how to "BUY" a child for a certain amount from other countries, and some address were here in this country, with pictures attached...fortunately the post office called the police for me and I turned the magazine over to the, with the guys address on the manilla folder it came in, he will get his...someday! I PRINTED THIS IN RED,BUT AD SAW FIT TO CHANGE IT, NEEDS TO BE DONE IN RED... AS I FEEL IT NEEDS TO BE DONE SO AS IT SAYS WHAT I SEE OUTLOUD...THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED THIS PROBLEM, FORGET THE REST, THIS IS SICK, THIS IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN WARS IN OTHER COUNTRIES...ed

SLAVERY… Yes, it surely does still exist, Mostly in other countries, where poverty lives, Usually children sold by parents, to be used however, These children grow to be adults, the cycle continues… Children forced into sexual slavery, We must wonder why, at least, herein, do I, Better off they should die, Before giving up their lives, Or being sold into humiliation & torture, Both boys and girls, sold into indenture, Age does not matter, the younger the better… Is not the reason we all live, yes you and I, To help to end this blight on humanity, To end something that gives the human race a black eye, How can we stop covering up all the lies? © ed – 3/18/04

Bravo to you Ed, You are right, we all should be seeing red, but the problem that I see that does exist, is that some will read or hear of tales like this, will with a nod of their head say, "this is bad, oh so very sad" and the next day, they will forget, and go on their own merry way...lip service is the sacrifice they make....excellent write Ed.

I so do agree with your statement regarding, "they would be better off dead," To them, inside they are dead! They have no feeling, they have completely shut down. So very sad! For someone so young, to feel this way!

Ed, thanks for bringing this up. As long as there is poverty, there will be slavery. As long as there is ignorance, there will be poverty. As long as 65% of all taxes are spent on "defense", there will be ignorance... Franz
