Ya know, now that you mention it, my draft horse has been farting a lot more lately.

NO - rather, the UN and NGO leftists are "creating a new generation of sex-trafficking victims."
Its why “Climate Change” can be classified as a new CULT RELIGION.

American taxpayers should not be funding any NGOs, nor any religions group importing sub-humans into human civilization, nor any college or university that encourages uncivil behavior, nor any city or state that encourages illegal invasion.
Back in the 1700s and 1800s, before Global Warming took hold, prostitution was a lot less of a problem.
