Very well put, Searlit! Too many people still see prostitution as a "victimless crime". Well, there is certainly nothing "victimless", in human trafficking! As I have previously said, their may be some justification for legalization, so long as:
1)All participants are there voluntarily.
2)This takes place in designated areas-"Red Light Districts"?
3)The gals get regular medical exams & treatment.
4)They, as well as the customers, are protected from assaults & robberies.
Yet, there are still issues to consider, such as the reasons which brought the girls to this lifestyle. As I have said, even a guy, who serviced women, told a reporter that his mother was never there for him, when he was a young boy. He works for a legal brothel, in Nevada, and was interviewed by a gal reporter for the New York Post. So, the question of legalization has cons, as well as pros.

That's an important video. I
hope it wakes enough people up to
the level of criminal trafficking of young women and children so that the money being sent to fight trafficking really goes toward ending trafficking. We really need to fight financial poverty, so it doesn't lead to moral poverty.

Grammar correction: "...increase in the amount of women..." should be "...increase in the number of women..."
