What an excellent young lawyer. May he go far.
I’m trying not to stereotype men and label all men as bad guys.I try to remind myself that there are still good people out in this world.
ted talks about funny/ positive talks , millions of views. Ted talk about hard truths, next to nothing.
I've found this to be soberingly and consistently absolute.
I'm afraid that like is typical with humans, until a problem is so bad it literally cannot be ignored, it probably will not be addressed.
100% correct.
I started to researching about human trafficking after I heard about that ever single day between 30-50 Million files of child trafficking are counted.... that's only about the trafficking what we know about!!!
The first what I realised was that there aren't any informations or reports in the Internet, compared to a daily interaction of 30 - 50 Million files of childporntrafficing...
I started to search in the German spoken areas and found a closed act of a German court case named "Sachsensumpf".
Involved highly leved people from Justice, Politics, Police, Economic, Bureaucracy.... when you read you know why there no informations anywhere. the process was in progress from 1993 - 2018.
@@SS-fj2kl Human trafficking is currently the fastest growing criminal industry in the world right now, set to soon overtake guns and drugs in total revenue generated. And yes, all of our statistics are likely underestimated given that we can never gauge a full picture of what's happening since a lot of it is self-supporting and not documented.
@@ParadymShiftVegan yeah I hear and read the last few days about this. This is so contrary compared to the consciousness of the masses. So many people don't feel responsible without facing that issue for one's, and if they do yout almost the same response.
2005 - I wrote down, the International Labor Organisationen estimated 30 Billion dollar in their Report.
2015 - 150 Billionen. As you said.
So I for my self feel responsible and as more everyone get confronted and involved as more you cut down them the air and space.
Thank you for your research and speech. It's too bad the media does not make a big deal of this.
Google who are the traffickers? Media is so corrupt . $$$ talks.
what Ryan speaks of should open people's mind and let them know that it happens in our own streets everyday.
Human trafficking of women, children and young adults both male and female ; the perpetrators should be prosecuted to die.
I hope Trump takes down all officials who endorse or operate human trafficking. It has hurt three children I know personally and pray this will end soon.
Jennifer Anderson agreed!!
Lamar Dreves has he done anything?
Expand your prayer life
Let him start with Biden . Biden administration is being investigated for human trafficking.
Anyone who does this to another person deserves the death penalty. No questions. ZERO TOLERANCE
Thank you for presenting this.
An action plan as well as outlining the issues is important, and I appreciate your intelligent and thoughtful delivery.
Good talk. sharing this one to my fb page. Thank You Ryan.
Thanks to Ryan - This is such an important issue. We need to educate each other on this. And our young. We need societies to be aware - and supply citizents with jobs that support a healthy lifestyle. Noone deserves a life on the streets or in prostitution.
It's amazing that these young people don't feel they mean anything and fall into hands of predators that make so much from them. To criminals they mean gold.
“As humans, we have a duty to be informed enough that we can demand action from those who are in a place to take it”
“Be an informed consumer. Be an activist consumer”.
May we all grow to better fulfill those ideals, even if it is little by little.
May we all hold ourselves to the standards of being Citizens - as We the People have been so privileged to be.
Biden administration is being investigated for human trafficking.
Thank you
Great talk Ryan. Brings some very needed awareness and followup discussion. One thing - You should consider referring to US Citizens as "Citizens" - not "consumers" - because you (likely unintentionally) diminish the responsibility that We Citizens have. Just a thought.
they should just havee the death penalty for human trafficking
thank you very much ryan for sharing this
I think with adolescent boys are especially vulnerable to victimization. Boystown was a terrible example of that.
And the US wishes to be know as “an upholder and defender of the victim of oppression.” Time for real enforcement. “It is not for him who is himself a servant to buy another of God’s servants,..” ~ Baha'i Faith
Human trafficking, a social crime
Cross cutting issues of our time
For the bribe and money
Women, child are exploitated like honey
Despite, being a crime
It has been only limited to my rhyme

Catch then and put them away forever in prison
Ha! I think that a lot of companies knew this just like talc being a carcinogen.

❤️❤️❤️🙏
Could have been a great talk if they talk had not deviated into the silliness of the law/policy rather than going into the actual issues of slavery, which would occur and does occur no matter what laws say or do not say.
we the end consumer can stop cheap labor human trafficking by choosing not to buy products that use cheap labor by human trafficking.
but how can we stop prostitution?
Tell all the men not to buy prostitutes. That's the only way. And how's that ever be possible since prostitution is the oldest labor, as old as humankind exist.
but still, we can try.
Stopping buying their products doesn't stop the cheap labor. They just end up working harder to make up for profit losses of any kind
Seems to me that a thorough crackdown on illegal immigration would make a huge dent in human trafficking. Stop the flow of illegals, deport all illegals who are already here, and those who traffic humans would have little to no source of said humans to traffic.....
Yeah ONLY in the USA
Number of views shown people don’t care

I know my observation will sound cold but it's all about pleasing the male taxpayers as bottom line just about everything is!
LadyT....how does anything he said pertain to us middle class, hard working, tax paying, legal U.S. male citizens exactly?
Branon Fontaine I am sure you probably know there are very different types of men, but being a decent man you may be naive about some things that go on in some court issues about this.
