it was maybe 8 years ago when i’ve heard on the radio about traffic jam in one part of NYC because drivers were looking at underage prostitutes/children standing on the busy street. so unfortunately this is NOT going on only in the south…i hope that these citizens who have will and ability are going to take a very strong stand and help these children get out of the iron grip these criminals have over them. How can this be happening in the United States?!

This is extremely sad and I am so glad there are people out there who are standing up against this problem.

This is the child RAPE trade, not child “prostitution,” which implies it’s like regular (consensual) prostitution. And for heaven’s sake when discussing child victims it should never be referred to as the “sex” trade when it is so clearly rape.

Disturbing to see how many “men” pay to harm young girls. That is true misogynistic bigotry right there. They don’t do it for “sex,” but to violate a girl, to hurt her.
