Super Bowl a magnet for under-age sex trade

[evelynwordsmyth]

Pimps will traffic thousands of under-age prostitutes to Texas for Sunday's Super Bowl, hoping to do business with men arriving for the big game with money to burn, child rights advocates said.

As the country's largest sporting event, the game between the Green Bay Packers and the Pittsburgh Steelers will make the Dallas-Fort Worth area a magnet for

Oh. Okay, nevermind my other comment then.

Yeah, there was a similar article claiming a shortage of 10,000 strippers in the Dallas area too. (They're expecting maybe 150,000 extra people in town for the event.)

Funny/telling that they used the same number.

I hope there will be a fucking ARMY of undercover cops to arrest everyone who even thinks of hooking up with a kid. And the kids themselves, obviously, to get them someplace safe.

Hysteria in my MSM? It's more likely than you think.

My big worry about the Super Bowl are the post-game riots. :| I live a fifteen minute hike from the stadium and have a friend that lives right across the damn street from it. My boyfriend and I were in the Stockyards today and already had to deal with some obnoxious as fuck Steelers fans carrying on and waving flags around.

GTFO.

And that comment was massively derailing. :| Mea culpa. Even with the sensationalist way this article was written, I'm glad that sex trafficking is being looked at very seriously before such a big event- but I'm simultaneously irked that it has to be broached in the context of not tarnishing the Super Bowl's rep.

i'm a green bay fan, in dallas for the game. everywhere i've gone, people have said "you must be a green bay fan" because i'm well-behaved, well-mannered, and a good tipper. i don't even drink. on my grandmother's grave, i promise not to riot in your city when my team wins.

[theartema]

Awesome. I will hold you to this, brosis, since I'm also rooting for Green Bay.

On behalf of DFW, I also apologize for the clusterfuck this ice and .5" of snow has caused in SHUTTING. DOWN. EVERYTHING. :|

Where in Dallas are you staying, out of curiosity?

She finally escaped by getting arrested.

This is why I hope there will be large police operations going on, not that the Super Bowl's image may be hurt.

Real men don't buy children. They don't buy sex.

Nonsense. Real men do anything their conscience excuses. Didn't we see that in Bosnia, the Congo, Pitcairn Island?
