child traffickers of Haitian kids?
what do you think about those "Christians"?
What punishment should they get?

turns out, most of those kids were not orphans at all….mmm…this looks suspicious.

I think that they should be tried in Haiti, sentenced to 20 years and serve them in haiti…see if they like it.

---

They should do hard labor for 20 years.

Desiree | Feb 04, 2010

---

If they’re selling children as slaves, they get what other traffickers get.

I highly doubt there are any Christians involved.

*********************************

Just looked up the story.

It’s NOT human trafficking, you moron. Children were found alone, adoptive parents were found who wanted them, and the Christian organization made it happen.

For you to call it "human trafficking" is pretty stupid.

Where were you educated, anyway?
Liberal AssKicker | Feb 04, 2010

The same as everyone else who child traffic’s does.
Not Ben | Feb 04, 2010

Not sure, but it depends on their motives. .

A side note to the whole sad thing is that many parents in Haiti are GIVING their children away… begging people to take them and give them a home because they can’t afford to.
Q&A Queen | Feb 04, 2010

I agree.
El Ateo | Feb 04, 2010

---

they did not obey the law
what ever the penalty is for breaking that law
God's servant | Feb 04, 2010

---

I’m willing to bet that most of the children’s parents were just trying to get those kids out of haiti where they could be safe- and the Christians were genuinely trying to help. I find it highly doubtful that the Christians would have hurt them anywhere beyond indoctrination.

LIBERAL ASSKICKER: uhhh, last I checked Baptists were Christians.

I think they should be tried in Haiti and wait until the jury returns its verdict before pronouncing verdict. Innocent until proven guilty. Or is that a radical notion?

were they really christian? i need evidence.
Ren | Feb 04, 2010

---

I agree, the "missionaries" should stay at home anyway, what use are they? If they were not there to at best cause trouble, or at worse steal children there was no reason for them to go. They were not attempting to save lives, cloth the naked, or heal the sick.
Rod | Feb 04, 2010

---

The entire incident should be investigated and if they were trafficing then they should be held to the laws.

I do think it would be appropriate to take into consideration if they were misled or not. If they were led to believe the children were orphans that may be a reason to reduce the sentence.

1. We still don’t know the whole story. As with many world stories, I like to hear both sides.
2. Try as they may, those "Christians" don’t even come close to being the big operation that Haiti’s government has. It has been no secret that Haiti’s government has a child black market going on. That’s why people have been so touchy about the subject.
3. They never said that every child was an orphan nor that every child was going to be up for adoption. They pointed out a fact,… that their facilities in the Dominican Republic were much less crowded and that the children had a better chance at getting food, water, and medical supplies.
4. I have yet to see any of the families say "Oh my, they stole my child!". Sure, they were happy to see their children and angry when they were told that their children were "taken". But at the same time, some of the parents seemed to back the story of the churches. Some said that they had sent their children with that group so that they would get food, water, and medical supplies.
5. This whole ordeal may come down to incorrect paperwork. If you take a minor across state lines (a felony in the U.S.) without the proper paperwork, are you automatically kidnapping a child?

I have experience with such an issue in Guatemala, another major corrupt nation. People there have literaly killed Americans for talking to a child (imagine my fear when a stranger asked me to hold her child on a bus once). One woman was held in prison, for her own protection, when she was accused of trying to kidnap children. She was innocent, but the locals overran the jail and beat her into a vegetable. They never cared to listen to her side of the story, not even to the child.
Buddy_Lee_Hombre_de_accion | Feb 04, 2010

They likely truly had the best of intentions, in their own messed up little minds. They were planning on taking care of the children, just as they said. They did, however, have another motive. There is nothing a Christian loves better than the thought of removing a child from a "godless" environment and putting them in 24/7 church, which was exactly their intention, I’m sure. It’s still slimy as hell, but they likely didn’t intend that actual harm come to the children. They were just trying to convert them before they became capable of rational thought. The earlier you expose a child to a given religion the more likely that child will be to remain that religion. They were looking to expand their churches in the area.

By the way, if you actually kept up with this story you would know that NOT ALL children were "found alone". Many were given by their parents with the promise of a better life than the parents could provide. I have read nothing about adoption. They were going to an orphanage.

For some one who is probably sitting in a comfortable chair, in a nice warm home and has a full belly, you sure are quick to pass judgment aren’t you ?? I admit they went about it all the wrong way, but they were only trying to save lives…. I wonder what you, as a parent would do, if a stranger walked up to you, in the same horrible situation, and told you they wanted to take your child to a better place, give it food and shelter, etc… ?? I wonder, if YOU were there, in the midst of the filth, sickness and dying, would you just be able to stand around and do nothing ?? I wonder if you would be able to walk away, climb on the plane and leave those starving babies ?? Hmmm, interesting to think about those things huh ?? go in peace…. God bless

they were hardly traffickers and intended only good I feel they should be let off and sent home.
mimjoy | Feb 04, 2010

They should be held under Haitian law since they commited the acts on Haitian soil to Haitian families. They were not there as diplomats.
Martin (atheist) | Feb 04, 2010

You might want to check your facts. CNN interviewed the parents who said they gave their children to this group because they could not provide for the children. These were laypeople from a Baptist church who should not have tried to go down there and attempt something that is complicated even for veteran aid workers and missionaries to do–navigate through a country’s legal system when children are involved.

And you have already condemned them before they even have a trial; do you and the people agreeing with you care about these children or are you just gleeful at the idea of these people going to prison? Since you have condemned them before they were even tried, perhaps "innocent until proven guilty" is not moral code that is important where you come from.
Filida | Feb 04, 2010

You have to admit it’s odd that what little remains of the Haitian Gvmt should focus their law and order priorities against a group of well-meaning, gentle, amiable people.

So the parents want their kids to have a better life by sending them to America by duping these Christians into thinking they’re orphans. And they’re arrested for it???

Madonna did it, she wasn’t arrested, but to call this child trafficking is a gross insult to the real evil that’s out there. Let’s keep this in perspective and use some common sense…
Camelot | Feb 04, 2010

they had a 16 yr old girl with them and didn’t look like a crime ring. maybe charge them with not filing the proper beauracracy. which maybe beauracracy is useful, they wouldn’t have taken the wrong kids and things would have worked smoothly. However immediatly after the earth quake the haitian government was nowhere to be seen. it was up to the haitian people to rebuild and whatever disorganized aid workers. Just the logistics of all these aid workers rushing in. no one knows where to go, what to do. Like at any airport normally competent people don’t know whats happening or what they’re doing. Still it was dumb to try and take kids out of the country with no ones permission. although it’s said they had permission from sometype of authority in DR. Some token punishment but unless they were up to no good i wouldn’t be too harsh. My verdict is 3 months work on haiti restoration. have them out there clearing concrete from roads. they hoped to (I hope rescue) some kids and be back home in indiana feeling good about the haitians they had in the guest house. give them 3 months in haiti, work at an orphanage, take care of some kids there, learn how the business works, it’s punishment and that’ll teach them, living there can’t be much fun now.

Why do my legs hurt so bad when I run?
So latley I have been alot more active. My doctor told me it would be a good idea to exercise everyday, so for the first 3 days of last week I used the eliptical at my gym. Well, that got boring fast. I wanted to step it up and get a better work out, so I decided to do some jogging thursday and Friday. Now for some odd reason, every time I go jogging my legs absolutley KILL. It starts as a minor shin splint, then it feels like leg bone is hurting, then my knees hurt, then calves. After running, this pain lasts the rest of the week and hurts when doing regular activities, such as walking up stairs, walking fast, jogging, etc.

My question is: How can I stop this? If everyone else in the world can run, why cant I? My girlfriend suggested I add more calcium in my diet. I do not drink milk. Am I just experiencing an inevitable shin splint?

thanks,
shizzyiscool

I would also reccomend more calcium in your diet if not milk then perhaps supplements.

probably its shin splints. Only run in running shoes if you aren’t and try stretching before working out. Stretching is almost as important as working out itself and way underrated.

Here’s what you do, simply go up to him in a class or between classes and start talking to him, ask him about what h likes to do and things he’s interested in, then leave, a couple days later go up to him and say "i need help with_____" insert with something he’s good at, then arrange a time and place to meet to help with said "problem" once this happens keep leaving him a "trail" of clues/little meetings. If he isn’t totally brain dead or you are ugly then a date should arise in conversation immediately.

yes, first of all, don’t be a stalker, we always hate that.
spend time with him, with no friends around, that’s better.
talk about yourselves, sometimes use a soft voice,
it’s great hear a girl with that tone, very attractive.
I hope you don’t be a fool girl, that’s a killer of seduction, in most cases.
You must show interest about him and his person.

december 21 2012 the end of it all?
So as we all know people are saying the end of the world will be on december 21 2012. do you think this is true because if you dont leave something telling me why when it will end and how. Me personaly i dont think its true i think an astroid, solar flair( what happend in the movie knowing) or a supernova will kill the earth and it will happen in 2000 years or so

---

December/21/2012 is not the end of the world. First the Mayan calendar does not end on December 21 2012 it just goes into another period. Also people thought it would be May 2003 but we are still here aren’t we. Also NASA said for a planet or a meteor to hit us in 3 years is impossible (unless god really hates us lol) The world will either in 4 billion years when the sun keeps expanding from nuclear fusion and touching Earth and destroying it. Or a huge asteroid like the one that killed the dinosaurs will hit us in about a couple of billion years… Or maybe you are right and a supernova or a solar flair will destroy the earth…. You will have to wait and see… if you live that long…

Kingy401 | Nov 17, 2009

It will not end in 2012 because there is no evidence to support it will end, at all. Zero. It’s a story, a fiction of the Mayan people and their calendar.

Our planet will be destroyed (completely or significantly) in one of two ways:

1. When our sun burns through it’s hydrogen fuel in about 5 billion years, it will begin to expand out to about Earth’s orbit. By that time, Earth will be devoid of life, water and everything else. The sun may indeed envelop the planet completely, or if not, will be destroyed when the sun collapses and explodes. This will happen and this WILL be the end of the planet.

2. A very large rock from space hits the planet sufficient to destroy it. This could happen at any time really, and we may not see it coming. The chances are low, but big rocks hit planets all the time.

nothing in sight for about 800 years. there is some question about an object whose orbit may be a threat in about 800 years. i can,t remember what asteroid it was. i will find out. even apophis has been downgraded. i,m not looking for any impacts, but i think there,s a planetary society program to plant a transponder on apophis to accurately track its approach to earth. they,ve even had a design for a number of spacecraft for this project. i don,t worry about 2012. i saw, and enjoyed the movie. the 50,s sci fi flick"when worlds collide" is actually more scientifically accurate by far than "2012". it,s dated, but still an excellent movie.

People prefer believing supernovas and the like will blow us all to hell in 2,000 years or more. We’re more comfortable in believing such things will happen long AFTER our lifetimes.

Nostradamus really didn’t spend a lot of time worrying about the end of the world. He figured he’ll be dead 500 years by the time it happens and he was right.

Time goes by. Things happen. History is made and written. Columbus thinks he discovers America but the Vikings beat him by 500 years and there were people that beat the Vikings. Wars are fought and in stead of naming them like ‘The Civil War’ they give them numbers like 1 and 2.

Point is: Our number is coming up.

December 21st 2012 is gonna be total wipeout. The quarterback is gonna get sacked for a 3 point game losing safety. Turn out the lights the party is over. The last picture show. The best little whorehouse in Texas is gonna go outta business.

I dunno how else to say it:

December 21st 2012: IS THE END OF THE WORLD!
