Christmas Wishes Really Do Come True

Slavery, worse than ever

But the deal isn't done. Benavil leans in close. "This is a rather delicate question. Is this someone you want as just a worker? Or also someone who will be a 'partner'? You understand what I mean?"

You don't blink at being asked if you want the child for sex. "I mean, is it possible to have someone that could be both?"

"Oui!" Benavil responds enthusiastically.

If you're interested in taking your purchase back to the United States, Benavil tells you that he can "arrange" the proper papers to make it look as though you've adopted the child.

This article is adapted from E. Benjamin Skinner's A Crime So Monstrous: Face-to-Face with Modern-Day Slavery.

Rush talks about the most famous mugging in America

This is a crazy story, crimes like this happen every day to normal people and it isn't news. It doesn't mean anything, it doesn't mean crime is up or down, or tax cuts are needed or not needed. It is what it is, and what it is, is a man who wanted money for something and asked the first person he thought he could get it from.
What happened to Mika Brzezinski is exactly why we need permanent,
across-the-board tax cuts. If we cannot keep more of our own money, muggers are
going to have to work over time. This guy could have gotten everything he wanted
from one victim, but because Mika Brzezinski only had a measly six bucks, he had
to probably go hold up a couple or three more people to make his
take.

That puts that many more people in danger, and, of course, the
mugger risks getting caught with each attempt here at fleecing somebody. He
could end up in jail as well. I mean, how is it that Drive-By infobabe on the
road doesn't have enough money to help out a fellow citizen who's down on his
luck. This country is better than that.

How can this be correct behavior for police officers?


I find it hard to believe that anyone would think that this is ok. One for cops to attack someone, when they are unclothed - even if they said they were cops. If a bunch of people jumped out of a van and grabbed me, and said they were cops I sure wouldn't just take their word for it.

Two for them to attack a child. I guess there is some debate about how old she is. But she is cleary young enough they should not have been grabbing her from off her property.

Then they follow this all up with an arrest for assaulting an officer because she resisted. This is wrong from top to bottom.

Police Get The Wrong House In Galveston, Allegedly Assault 12-Year-Old Girl

As Dymond headed toward the breaker, a blue van drove up and three men jumped
out rushing toward her. One of them grabbed her saying, "You're a prostitute.
You're coming with me."

Dymond grabbed onto a tree and started screaming,
"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy." One of the men covered her mouth. Two of the men beat her
about the face and throat.

As it turned out, the three men were
plain-clothed Galveston police officers who had been called to the area
regarding three white prostitutes soliciting a white man and a black drug
dealer.
