Go Behind the Scenes of a Massive Human Trafficking Raid

CNN is reporting on a three-year long human trafficking case in the Catalonia region of Spain that tells you about all of that. Due to diligent, covert police work, hundreds of Chinese immigrants illegally brought to Spain will no longer be forced to spend their lives in fetid, cramped sweatshops.

    Thank God for good cops!!! There is evil in every walk of life but this is the reason we have police officers and it AWESOME to hear stories like this when Police and the “system” works the way it was intended to. Three cheers to the officer in this story (I‘m sorry I can’t pronounce or spell his name) but Good on You Sir!!! True definition of HERO!!!

    This happens all over the world. Children’s sweat shops to work 18 hours a day sewing clothes to give their keepers huge profits. Children in impoverished countries forced into sexual slavery and some even offered up by parents, its been happening and will continue to happen. Just the way it is. Sick, ugly **** but still just the way it is. I wonder if anyone knows that but its own admittance Japan has the greatest number of pedophiles in the world. They thrive on young innocents in Asia and after using and abusing them just throw them away like garbage. Its a sick world ladies and gentlemen.

    If you think your are not a slave you are a fool. You are given the illusion of free choice but elites like cass sunstein limit your choices to what he wants. That’s just slavery with a little style.

    The bottom line is the profit made on the back of slaves. Those responsible for this horrendous crime do not value these slaves as humans, they are merely tools to used for profit and illegal gain. I do not have much faith that Spain will dispense with real justice. Death is the only true penalty befitting these vermin.

    We had better look out at 2012 for sure! If obama gets back in then he will try to finish his work of forcing us to be like these poor people. That is his goal, that‘s why Moochelle stated that they need to stay in power because they haven’t done all that they want to do. Making us work like this is what they want to do. NOBAMA 2012!!!

    On Atlas S. With fresh evidence of Hezbollah activity just south of the border, and numerous reports of Muslims from various countries posing as Mexicans and crossing into the United States from Mexico, our porous southern border is a national security nightmare waiting to happen. Vote Obama out in 2012, who wants what ever criminals he can get to build a voting base.

    Secure our borders, punish corruption severely. If CNN doesn’t release the names of the business they are part of the problem. No excuses of we didn’t know because of a middle man. It is their responsibility to know where their goods are coming from. Fishstx, nobody is saying not to do it here. We know there are criminals in all walks of life.

    Lucky the unions have forced our labor costs to skyrocket so high that companies send their garment manufacturing to sweat shops that force people to work and live in horrible conditions. It is time to bring clothing manufacturing back to the states and start up without union shops. Buy less and pay a bit more in order to put Americans to work. That ought to be a slogan for someone’s campaign. We want to buy American!

    Wish they would have the same level of dedication and success in the sex trafficking area!! The numbers are staggering, and the victims are children. Am glad that they broke this sweatshop ring, but sure wish the child trafficking could be shut down!!

    I suspect that if a huge raid like this were conducted here in the U.S. we’d be shocked and dismayed at who would be rounded up in the sting.

    Slavery is still permissible and practiced under Islam. In many Islamic countries, it is practiced today and their governments turn a blind eye. This is the legacy of Islam.

      Whites are easily “influenced” to change their ideas on topics, while middle easterners are not. Even this shows that differences in race are more than just skin color and physical attributes. There are mental differences as well, including the way that races think differently, and their strengths and weaknesses are different too. This is their strength, that they keep what they know, and are not easily manipulated to change their thoughts.

      Yhis is not a race thing or people think differantly it is a fact that man will not leave others alone and try to control others because it is a power thing that drives man. Slavery tgrough a tax code is the worse kind of slavery.Poeple are pushed into a imoral acts with the lie of it being moral. Good luck finding a true clear thinking man who clutters his mind with garbage.

      Gives new meaning to “Made in China”. I think we have had our heads in the sand concerning what is made overseas. Walmart, Target and others should put out a statement. I have heard also the possibility of this taking place here in the USA being linked strangely to a fatal bus crash in NYC recently. I hope someone is pulling on the “thread”.
