HOW YOU CAN HELP

If you think you've identified a victim of human trafficking, call 911 or the national Trafficking Information and Referral Hotline at 1-888-373-7888. For information locally, contact the Houston Rescue and Restore Coalition at 713-306-0583. Here are some questions to ask a suspected trafficking victim:

• What type of work do you do?

• Are you being paid?

• Can you leave your job if you want to?

• Can you come and go as you please?

• Have you or has your family been threatened?

• What are your working conditions like?

Another heartwarming tale of Pro-Choice America. Planned Parenthood would be proud.

The American taxpayer might qualify based on that list of questions. Uncle Sam has us and he won't let go.

So much for illegal immigration being another "victimless" crime.

Apparently being a sanctuary city doesn’t benefit everyone. Oh well, as long as they are contributing to the economy and provide cheap labor we can look the other way.

Under the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000, victims who cooperate with authorities on trafficking cases are permitted to stay in the U.S. legally, at least temporarily while the case moves through the court system. Some victims meet the qualifications for a “T-visa,” a trafficking visa, which also offers a path toward legal residency. The rules are slightly different for children and teens, who are sometimes too vulnerable to be compelled to testify.

Put up a couple more red light cameras in the suburbs. That’ll fix the problem.

I have no dog in this fight, but I think you’re in a losing battle with the way laws are. IF a suspected “human slave” is reported to the authorities, guess who (if caught) is deported?

The importer, pimp and enforcer are all ignored.

I’ve seen it all happen in the little town of Woodburn Oregon.

Laws and lawyers make me sick.

Enslaving the people Americans won't enslave.

Gotta wonder if the media outcry would be far larger if these were African slaves.

League City, Just outside Houston has ordered the Police Dept. not to bother the huge number of illegals on corners in it’s city waiting for Houston-ions to come hire them. Galveston County has long been an underground rail way for illegals who are aided by the Roman Catholic church and housed in the church.Come election time city/county fathers in Galveston County should duck and cover as this issue will go nuclear.
