How Can We Find or Recognize Victims of Sex Slavery in Kansas City?

Question by anjaba2: How can we find or recognize victims of sex slavery in Kansas City?

Best answer:

Answer by lillardlane
I think that all crack addicts, heroin addicts, and prostitutes are victims of slavery in the United States. I watched a show on tv about this and it was called 60 minutes. It was very shocking and disturbing as it is a hidden slave trade in America and few feel any pity for these victims. You can find this slave trade going on all over the major cities and I feel that the federal government should do something about it. These women are slaves to their addiction and a slave to their life style and there is no way out. It is really horrible that this exists in our modern America. Gross!
