[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The world has never been safe but it's obvious to me that so many posting on here are either[b] unaware, or indifferent, to the rampant human trafficking that is going on.

No matter how responsible and intelligent a 17 year old 'young woman' is she lacks the practical experience of someone 10+ years older and is absolutely more vulnerable to those who would do her harm.[/quote]

PP, I've lived extensively in Eastern Europe and been involved in human rights issues, including human trafficking.  Right now, the girls at risk of being trafficked in Europe are Syrian and other refugees coming thru the trafficking pipelines via Turkey and Libya and thru Greece, Italy and the Balkans.  A employed American 17 y.o. working in Warsaw and living with her father is pretty much at zero risk of being trafficked.  Human traffickers don't kidnap well off girls on their way to work.  They entice poor, marginalized, non-citizens with offers of employment in other countries.  They target parents who feel like it's better to sell or marry off their girls before they are raped or starve, or parents who believe the promises of employment and the good life in another country.   Have you done anything in the past month to support the women at real risk of being trafficked in Europe?

BTW, Warsaw is probably a hell of a lot safer place to run around than DC, when it comes to being vulnerable to someone who would "do her harm."  [/quote]
