I recently read an article by John Whitehead with the Rutherford Institute titled, "Evil Walks Among Us: Child Trafficking Has Become Big Business in America." The facts listed in this article are horrifying. This is what's happening to our society—children are being targeted and sold for sex in America, every day.
Every two minutes, a child is bought and sold for sex. Hundreds of young girls and boys, some as young as nine, are being bought and sold for sex—sometimes as many as 20 times a day. Adults purchase children for sex at least 2.5 million times a year, in the U.S. alone.
Every two minutes, a child is bought and sold for sex.
In Georgia, it is estimated that 7,200 men, half of them in their 30s, seek to purchase sex with an adolescent girl every month, 300 times a day. On average, a child will be raped by 6,000 men, during a five-year period. It's estimated that at least 100,000 to 500,000 children, girls and boys, are bought and sold for sex in the U.S. every year. 36 percent of the children in the sex slave trade are boys.
This is happening in our society. Our society is corrupt and broken.
Adults purchase children for sex at least 2.5 million times a year, in the U.S. alone.
Moreover, our children are being targeted for sexual exploitation in our homes, in our schools. Anyone who has a child, who has been exposed to porn online knows that it spins their heads like crazy. Now they're being introduced to this porn, in our schools packaged as "sex education" that is a Trojan horse for the progressive left's radical ideology—from a trusted teacher. Our youth are in trouble.
The growth of porn and sexual indoctrination in our schools is making our kids more at risk of being trafficked. The number of kids at risk of being trafficked or have already been sold into the sex slave trade would fill 1,300 school buses. This is happening online. It could be happening in your own home to your kids, where they're being groomed through gaming or through social media. One in five kids online are sexually propositioned over gaming platforms and social media.
It is big business—for girls and boys.
This is happening here, in our homes, in our schools, along our borders, on our turf. We Americans are consuming and buying it. We are responsible for our children, and we can't stand for this. We have to do something.
