Yes they are out in plain sight; there are signs up in virtually every airport I have transited in the past year.

Once upon a time, a cop could stop and talk to anyone or any couple, or any small group, for just about any reason. Today, we have a screen of court mandated "rights" that the criminals are able to hide behind. Women, children, or men being trafficked are seen by law enforcement persons every day, but without a good, plausible, probable cause, a judge will throw it out. The time honored sense Jesse Stone called "Coply Intuition" no longer cuts it, and the slavers thrive.

It is horrendous, but it is important to know what the scope and definition of trafficking is. It is more than smuggling and involves a variety of people. Furthermore, many trafficked victims have preexisting relationship with the perpetrator.

This is true and tragic. Parents traffic children, siblings traffic each other, "boyfriends" ingratiate themselves to vulnerable young women and groom them for trafficking.

When it comes to slavers (aka pimps and traffickers), I am in favor of the solution the band Steppenwolf had for pushers, "Cut them if they stand, shoot them if they run."

I have no daughters, but I have granddaughters, and I loathe all these types of people.
