Jenks, OK couple abandon old lives to fight child trafficking
Tulsa World ^ | 12/20/10 | Matt Gleason

Jason and Kristin Weis had a comfortable life in Denver. Two kids. House in a neighborhood cul de sac. Good jobs. Financial security. Nearby family and friends. Then a local TV news report "changed everything," Kristin Weis recalled.

Now, the Jenks couple in their early 40s work together to raise funds and awareness about the national organization Stop Child Trafficking Now, which "addresses the demand side of child sex trafficking by targeting buyers/predators for prosecution and conviction,"

The first comment after the article (about the Tea Party) is badly in need of freeping.

I don’t even know how to respond to that imbecile. That thing is dumber than a gnat.

Not only is it stupid but the thing doesn’t even comment on child trafficking. It merely implies that “slavery” is not being permitted to kill children. The hint is that it mentions women but not the children in the article.

This leftist thing expresses its evil in two ways:

1. child trafficking is not an issue

2. children should be killed when young

We cannot reason with these vermin. They are a viral agents which exist for the sole purpose of destroying Christianity and all non-criminals everywhere (particularly children and the elderly). They will continue to corrupt, kill, destroy, and torment until they are dead and buried.

These people are doing a great work. As for the comment, I could not for the life of me imagine how that guy’s addled, confused mind managed to work it all around to “corporate Republicans and the Tea Party.” Good grief.

Agreed. It is a huge leap to go from a story about two heroic people who changed their lives to fight for children to a snark about the Tea Party being all tied up with corporate interests. I thought the Tea Party were a bunch of uneducated knuckle-draggers. Get your story straight, leftists.

I admire people like this who are willing to give up so much to help others.

I just cannot understand the evil in some people.

I read somewhere that the majority of conservatives think leftists are just misguided and will eventually see the light. Whereas the leftists think conservatives are evil and must be destroyed.

IMO the leftists must be destroyed.

I can understand how these things think. They are hardly the most complicated organisms in the world. You must remember that this thing couldn’t care less about child trafficking. It isn’t a human being so human children are of no concern to it. It just saw the case as an excuse to present its message.

The core of its desire is to have consequence free sex with females. That is why it mentions “women”. It starts by mentioning what it thinks is the initial cause of anti-sex-positive hindrance (the Bible and its non-sex positive message). The next step in its primitive thought processes is to associate “slavery” with the existence of current sex consequences (i.e. unwanted pregnancy, child care, loss of money, etc). The final step is to associate these problems with the group that does not support and often fights against its primitive/selfish/evil viral nature: “corporate Republicans and the Tea Party.”

Like all primitive organisms/bacteria/viruses, it’s only ‘thoughts’ involve satiating its own primal appetite.

The thing that wrote the comment at the bottom is the reason evil is so widespread. The monsters who traffic children for sex and those who support their ‘business’ are very numerous.

The decent people like the ones mentioned in this article are a rare find.

There is a war going on right now.

We keep accusing leftists of being soft on America’s enemies and yet many conservative are going soft on the worst enemies this nation has ever known: the leftists!
