Thanks Dmayn1,
I knew one of the boys, Andrew from his time in our middle school. He was a good kid. It wasn't until today that I looked at his picture and realized that I knew him. ...its hard.
I don't know the details of what happened or how it was handled by authorities. But none of our children should ever be at risk of being hurt or killed anywhere anyway.
Our society has grown fat and lazy in its collective morals. We are loosing moral ground when as Americans we have every reason and opportunity to be gaining. The way we protect and nurture our kids is a flat out disgusting shame. From something like this to the way we treat children in Foster Care. WE choose the alter of the almighty green back long before the complete protection and education of our children.
January 20, 1961. JFK said in his inaugural address. " We hold in our mortal hands the means to cure all forms of human suffering and destroy all forms of Human life." We are still fighting over moral ground and electing fools to compromise it.
Seems between the life and times of our children are always used in compromise to the most base and self-important of the rich and therefore powerful eight percent of this American experiment in democracy fueled entirely, not by the greatness of our human possibilities but the hoarding selfness that exists in us all.

The prospects for healthcare reform may be chillier than DC weather, but Democrats in the House and Senate are turning their attention to another warmer but still significant national issue: the increasing number of runaway and throwaway youth who are being forced into prostitution. In response to the growing concerns that desperate, runaway teens will be forced into prostitution in a sluggish economy, Congress is pushing several bills to improve how runaway kids are tracked by the police, fund crucial social services, and prevent teens from being caught in sex trafficking. Here's the gist of what the new legislation is trying to accomplish:
