Every country in the world is affected by human trafficking! But in the United States we have elected officials coercing children to leave their families and country of origin in hopes of a better life. This coercion also makes it easier for coyotes to get their hand on innocent children who are then used abused and sold.
Children make up approximately one third of all human trafficking victims around the world. Trafficking can and does occur across international borders and also within countries. Children moved within a country for the purpose of exploitation are victims of trafficking. It doesn’t matter if the children are from a foreign country or a citizen of that country.
During the Trump administration elected Democratic Officials refused to acknowledge illegal aliens as being illegal but instead referred to them as undocumented immigrants. Democrats called for increasing the quota on refugee, approve a catch and release system, and propose protecting millions of illegal aliens, mostly from Mexico and Central America who have lived in this country for many years. Democrats fought against securing our borders and demanding identification and documentation of those attempting to enter the United States of America.
Biden states “Immigration is an irrefutable source of our strength and is essential to who we are as a nation.” What he doesn’t address is that the irrefutable source of our strength is from individual immigrants like my mother and then years later my uncle. Both came to the United States of America legally, jumped through all the hoops, learned the language (English) and proceeded to teach their children English with the option to learn the parent’s native language at a later date and by choice. My uncle served, fought and defended this country until the day he died.
Biden goes on to say “This is an important first step in pursuing immigration policies that unite families, grow and enhance our economy, and safeguard our security.” What Biden doesn’t address is the fact that if these individuals enter our great nation illegally they do not grow and enhance our economy, because the vast majority of illegal aliens do not pay taxes. By coming in to the United States the illegal has not been vetted, are they drug users/dealer? Are they pimps? Do they have a history of trafficking children? Are they really families?
During the Trump administration the news reported that “children” were being held in cages yet no one address the facts that:
- until there is a through medical examination we do not know if these “children” are truly minors;
- until there is a thorough medical examination we do not know if these “children” are healthy or careering a disease;
- we do not know if the “family member” they came with is actually a parent or their trafficker;
- it was actually Obama who started using the cages.
BLM and ANTIFA, both of which are part of and funded by the Democratic Party yell, scream and protest for the rights and betterment of African American individuals and demand that everyone worldwide pity their “race” for the plight of their ancestors and the fact that they were slaves in their country of Africa and sold as sales to Europeans and then shipped off to North and South America. These groups claim to know about slavery and the harm that it can and has done but these same people REFUSE to address the ongoing slavery of children and sex workers. Their actions during the Trump administration took the focus off the trafficking of children and allowed for tens of thousands of children to be trafficked.
TRAFFICKING OF CHILDREN
According to WikipediA the United Nations has defined “Trafficking of Children” as the “recruitment, transportation, transfer, harboring, and/or receipt” kidnapping of a child for the purpose of slavery, forced labor and exploitation. It is also believed that children may also be trafficked for adoption purposes.
Many children and young people are trafficked from third world countries, like Vietnam, Albania, Romania, Mexico, Venezuela, etc. The traffickers use physical, sexual and emotional abuse to control the children. Children and young adults who are being trafficked are likely to be emotionally neglected and sexually exploited. Third world traffickers often groom the children, families and communities before abducting the children.
Trafficking is an economic crime. The parents may be threatened that there will be violence if they go to the police or the parents may be promised that the child will have a better life elsewhere. Some parents even pay the trafficker for documents the child may need in the new country or for transportation expenses. Once the child leaves they may not be heard from again or what they hear may not be the truth. The child may be told that the money they earn is money used to pay off the debt of the parents, or the money is being used to pay for their living expenses. The only person who has a better life is usually the trafficker.
TYPES OF CHILD TRAFFICKING
Why are children trafficked? The intended versus the actual use of the child after the sale is made in not always known. Some children are trafficked for:
- Forced Labor – In most developed countries, around the world, the minimum working age is 14 years of age yet UNICEF estimates that 100 million children aged 5 – 14 in developing countries are involved in child labor. Child Labor can take many forms including domestic servitude, agriculture services, manufacturing industries. According to several researchers, most children are forced into cheap and controllable labor such as work in homes, farms, factories, and restaurants. Trafficked children may also be sexually exploited, used in the armed forces, drug trade and child begging. Children are cheap labor and depending on the country depend on the demand of their services. In Ghanan Children can release fish easier from nets due to their small hands; thereby their services are highly demanded. UNICEF reports that 31% of child labor is located in West Africa, where one in six children between the ages of six and fourteen are working. It was determined, through child labor scandals where major companies, the likes of Gap and Nike, were using industry “sweatshops” that trafficked children provided hazardous work conditions for the children.
- Sexual Exploitation – Sexual exploitation of children includes the use of girls and boys in sexual activities for cash or in kind (known as child prostitution); trafficking of girls and boys and adolescents for the sex trade; Child Sex Tourism; the production, promotion and distribution of pornography involving children and the use of children in sex shows.
- Children in armed forces – Children conscripted into the armed forces can then be used in combat roles with hostiles, used as messengers or spies and used for political advantage such as propaganda purposes.
- Children in Drug Trades – Children are often trafficked into exploitation as either drug couriers or dealers, and then “paid” in drugs, and they become addicted further entrapping them. Investigations in Afghan show that children are used in the heroin trade and children involved in the drug trade in Brazil are at a significantly higher risk of engaging in violence, particularly murder.
- Adoption – Disreputable adoption agencies have been known to charge high fees to prospective adoptive parents and the children delivered may have been trafficked via kidnapping, or the parents may be tricked, cajoled or coerced into relinquishing custody of the child.
- Child Begging – Forced child begging is a type of begging in which boys and girls who are under the age of eighteen are forced, through psychological and physical coercion, to beg. Begging is defined as the activity of asking for money on the streets. A UNICECF study shows that 13% of trafficking victims in South Eastern Europe have been trafficked to participate in forced begging.
THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION
In answer to the question are elected democratic officials trafficking children; I would have to say YES.
Trump attempted to educate those wanting to enter the United States by reporting the proper way of doing things and the fact that they could stop at any Embassy along their route and request political asylum. Biden, Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, etc., on the other hand, have publicly told residences of
other nations that they don’t have to follow our laws to enter the United States of America. These same individuals have publicly preached about what illegal aliens will receive upon entering the United States of America. The conundrum is, these same elected officials have set up a procedure for the children to be moved from the border to within the United States of America without a clear and convincing way of tracking them.
Currently the Texas border is seeing a surge in illegal aliens entering the United States of America and why not Biden/Harris and Pelosi invited them in. When these illegal aliens are apprehended by the Border Patrol they may be taken to a processing center and then put on a bus to a location further into the interior of the United States or taken to a holding center. With the number of illegal aliens who feel they have been invited the holding facilities are over capacity.
So now a trafficker can go to the parents and says look at this news article, your child will have a better life the President of the United States says so; they will get welfare, schools, health care, and public services; so the trusting parent pays the travel expenses and their little girl or little boy ends up a sex slave, in a foreign country and unknown state. Univision Communications, a Hispanic Media Co., reported that the coyotes are saying that business is booming due to Biden benefits. For more information on this report click here.
And all the while our democratic elected officials are taking political advantage of these children and these families are used for propaganda purposes and for a vote at the next election.
So in a nutshell Biden/Harris, Pelosi, Schumer, etc. are guilty of:
- internationally recruitment – these children and their parents are promised a better life;
- exploitation and propaganda – using the children via the media and news outlets;
- transportation – transporting the children to the interior of the United States of America;
- receipt and transfer – transferring the care and custody of the child without parental consent;
- harboring – sheltering and or hiding a person who has illegally entered the United States of America;
- child abuse – causing emotional harm to the children the coyotes are able to cross the border with;
- child abuse – causing mental harm to the children the coyotes are able to cross the border with;
- child abuse – causing physical harm to the children the coyotes are able to cross the border with;
