In the Netherlands were it is legal, as many a tourist knows, they have a unique problem, more demand than women willing to go into that line of work, but hey the Russian mafia has a solution, they kidnap young girls from the refugee camps in Eastern Europe and force them into prostitution. Or a nice Dutch couple puts an ad in an Eastern European newspaper saying they want a housekeeper or a nanny and would pay alot, except when the girl shows up guess what?

Interpol and UNICEF put trafficking in human beings for sex slaves 3rd after drugs, and gun smuggling for profits. And point out that it might over take the other two, due to laws being slow to recognize the problem. The women/kids don't speak the local language and rarely can ask for help. And if they do are sent back home to were they are endanger.

Legalizing it, when there are not enough women who want to volunteer to meet the need - makes the illegal kidnapping more of a problem. Yes it happens in all of Europe and the US - but it is whose in the one country where it is legal, because the activity is hiding behind the legal. And it is hard if not impossible to make laws to deal with this that don't also impact legal prostitution.

So by legalizing it - the Netherlands has a worse human traffic problem than the rest of Europe. And while you're at it look at the rate of rape in Nevada - it is not bucking the trend that sexual violence against all women is higher in places where sex work is legal.

These folks are not really anti-abortion. They don't want young black women to have abortions or birth control -- because the percentage of the population that is black is dropping. They want to increase the percentage of black people. They are the elite of the black community -- they are black politicians, church and civic leaders - they need black voters to exist.

They don't care about young black women. They care about their eroding power base. They blame the lack of growth of the percentage of black people in the over all population on abortion and birth control -- and that is why they are against both.

They are not to keen on mixing the races either, or a kid with a drop of African-American blood identifying themselves with any other ethnic group.

The only racist issue, is the real reasons they are against birth control and abortion -- the one they call the genocide of their race, which is silly since it is the individual choice of black women of all economic levels - rich and poor to decide how many kids they are going to have -- that this group is against. If they could they'd force young black women of all backgrounds to have more kids in the name of God, Race or whatever else suited them.

Per the WHO (World Health Organization) for 2005 (most current numbers available) there were 117,000 maternal deaths in India.

The odds of a woman dieing from pregnancy related issues is one in seventy.

So how much money justifies this?

Just by the way, the death rate for garbage men varies by region in the US alot, but it seems to be 4 per 100,000. Its more dangerous to give birth in India.

The US maternal death rate is one per 10,000. So it is more dangerous in the US as well.

And it doesn't sound like the loss of your kids meant nothing. It sounds like it hurts so much, you are wishing your pain on everyone else.

If they only did a few of these a year, yeah they could find a few women who want to, and make good at talking to the press. But as foriegn adoptions become harder, and more women flock to India for this, do you really believe there are hundreds, possibly thousands of poor India women who really want to do this? Ask 100% here is they would no matter how poor they are, ask women on welfare -- the women in India are no different, they just don't have the same options.
