Today we are going to talk about something that makes most of us a little uneasy. But it is that VERY uneasiness and LACK of discussing this horrifying topic, that allows the epidemic to flourish. What is this epidemic? Child sex trafficking. If this topic makes your skin crawl, your stomach churn, your heart ache, your soul break, and/or a seething anger that you can’t control, then you must face those feelings and read on!

On December 10th, 2013 Special Agent Tim Ballard turned in his Homeland Security badge and resigned from his employment with the United States government. He had spent over a decade rescuing children from child sex tourism both domestically and overseas. Though his job was difficult, he was proud that his country was one of very few in the world who was actually doing anything about this problem. However, mired in red tape and bureaucracy, Tim left to begin saving the children that he saw falling out of the purview of the US government. These children constitute over 90% of the children lost to child sex slavery and he could do nothing to help them while in the employment of the US government.
