In the U.S. we had ...Oh dear, Oh dear, Oh dear me! In the U.S. we had a Civil War from 1861 to 1865 which ended in freeing the slaves. I thought that slavery was done with. BUT last night on the radio, I heard a man speaking of "human trafficking" and I almost fainted. I vaguely knew that 'something' was going on, but his commentary gave the full story. The 'trafficking' consists of kidnapping, child slaves, and all sorts of humans bought and sold for sex and pornography. Sorry to shock our readers so, but so it is. I think I shall go have a good cry now, and pray for help from Above. My little corner of the world is so neat and tidy, and it makes me sad to hear such things.<br /><br />Yrs aff'ly,<br />Linda the LibrarianLinda Fernhttp://www.theloiterer.org/noreply@blogger.com
