Fact:

At this point in history, there are more than twenty-million human beings enslaved. They have been stripped of all their rights, freedom and happiness. Their reality...their future, is slavery and they can only dream of the freedoms we take for granted every single day. Most of these slaves, a majority of those being sex slaves, will either die in bondage or be left to die on their own.

 

The American populace has been apathetic and idle for too long. WE MUST DO SOMETHING to help the oppressed. If you think it has no affect on your our your country, you're wrong. HERE is a source of statistics regarding our nation the human trafficking involved.

 

THIS IS REAL.

 

Annually, according to U.S. Government-sponsored research completed in 2006, approximately
800,000 people are trafficked across national borders, which does not include millions trafficked
within their own countries. Approximately 80 percent of transnational victims are women and girls and up to
50 percent are minors. The majority of transnational victims are females trafficked into commercial sexual
exploitation. These numbers do not include millions of female and male victims around the world who are
trafficked within their own national borders.
