Border kids

The problem with children at the border has brought sex trafficking into the headlines and this would be a good time to point out a report from the state department. According to the Department of State's statistics from 2000, there are approximately 244,000 American children and youth that are at risk for sex trafficking each year. Of these children and youth, 38,600 were originally runaways. If all of these victims could be gathered together like those at the border perhaps Americans would take action but that is not going to happen but this gives one an idea of what it might look like.
