Social Networking? Or Social Destruction?

What is the Agenda of Craigslist? - Does Craig's List Promote Prostitution on a worldwide level? - Are Children Being Affected By Craig's List?

Craigslist is the single largest source of prostitution promotion online in the world, Missing children, runaways, abused women and women trafficked in from foreign countries are routinely forced to have sex with strangers because they're being pimped on Craigslist. -

Craigslist 'actually catered their site so it facilitates (prostitution),' says Chicago Sheriff Tom Dart. - Read more

With its free postings and relative anonymity for its users, Craigslist's "Erotic Services" site has become a  vehicle for the trafficking of children. The Craigslist campaign urges Craigslist as a multi-million dollar company to take responsibility for the role its site is playing in facilitating child slavery and exploitation. - www.love146.org

Craigslist has become the high-tech 42nd Street, where much of the solicitation takes place now,” said Richard McGuire, Nassau’s assistant chief of detectives. “Technology has worked its way into every profession, including the oldest.” - Helping to expose the crimes of Craig's List - www.craigscrimelist.org

Coalition to Abolish Slavery - CAST coalition to abolish slavery & trafficking ... have organized together to act as activists to abolish human trafficking—lobbying for policy change. - www.castla.org

Child prostitution is on the rise because of craigslist. Yes there are other sites out there that cater to this kind of depravity but in my opinion craigslist is the #1 offender. What’s it going to take Craig and Jim before you eliminate the erotic services section? - more

"I think you can look at the ads in Craigslist's Adult Services section and tell if they look like ads for legitimate massages, Or if they look like the same escort and prostitution businesses, some of which were pimping minors, that have been on advertised on Craigslist since its inception." more  

Does Craig want this to happen in the US? The reported cases of child sexual abuse have increased by 400% in the past 8 - 9 years in South Africa - www.bobbibear.org.za

Courts Take Some Action in Nov. of 2008 >>>

Under the watchful eye of law enforcement in 40 states, Craigslist pledged to crack down on ads for prostitution on its Web sites.

As part of Craigslist's agreement with attorneys general around the country, anyone who posts an "erotic services" ad will be required to provide a working phone number and pay a fee with a valid credit card. The Web site will provide that information to law enforcement if subpoenaed.

Jim Buckmaster, Craigslist's chief executive, said the deal will allow legitimate escort services to continue advertising, while providing a strong disincentive to companies that are conducting illegal business.

Legitimate escort services???

Female escort services promising easy in-home delivery of sensual delights are flourishing in the United States, multiplying even faster than pawn shops. More than 5,200 companies placed telephone advertisements last year in 47 states last year alone.
