U.S. system to find, help victims of human trafficking is broken


Oh really? And what isn't "broken" about this country when it doesn't suit the purposes of defending criminals?

Personally, I'm not interested in their whining.

The majority of these alleged "victims" willfully enter into agreements with smugglers to be illegally transported into this country and they do so fully understanding that the risk to them is tremendous.

Is the person who enters into an agreement to, for instance, illegally purchase drugs, a "victim" when he's ripped off?

If the person who conspires with others to commit a bank robbery is shot during the commission of that crime, are they a "victim"?

Not hardly and it's no different in the case of those willingly being smuggled into this country, an act which alone, sets off a series of other
crimes knowingly and willingly committed by these "victims" in order to accommodate their illegal presence here.

How about they concentrate on the REAL victims.....the American people and legal immigrants.......for a change?
