Hey I have absolutely no argument with you! I mentioned the chocolate incident because that's what I referred to a few weeks ago. I am well aware of the different types of trafficking that goes on. In fact the link I gave earlier is not highlighting the chocolate issue. This is the topic of the page I linked to in my first post.

"Candy was 15. Her parents were persuaded, tricked, to let her be taken from her West African home to a new life in England. She was sold – ‘Trafficked.’ When she arrived, she was taken to a brothel and abused every hour, every day. Stories like Candy’s are happening all the time, making People Trafficking the world’s fastest growing illegal trade. We have to act now to stop it."

So, if anyone would like to add their names to the petition, please feel free to do so. The link is at the beginning of the thread.

All I am saying is people who use prostitutes and take drugs support this industry. They go hand in hand - and until the enormous organisations that support this industry (not just illegal ones - people in very "high places" make profit) are stopped, no amount of petitions will change it

Too much money is involved. People will fight to the death to keep it

oh, think of poor men who need thousands of candys.
if you stop the trade, men will suffer.

I made a simple request. If people agree with petitions they can sign. If they don't agree with petitions, they don't need to sign. People can always find alternative ways to support the fight against people trafficking.

I think we have the same view with regard to people trafficking AEnigma.

I see this thread is fast becoming something different to the original intention.

So, everyone, please read my initial post and decide for yourselves.

such a dishonorable trade,but pity this dirty moneys flying from country to another country by geeting more each new day,and pity innocent majority watching this dirty game as a watcher,so seems world needs new stronger civil or official organizations for keep humanity honor and for creat common ethic rules.Money musn't be the once superior while decaying all world with its dirty side or face....
