Comments by "" (@shauncameron8390) on "Selling sex: underage victims of sex tourists in the Dominican Republic | Unreported World" video.

  1.  @winter7091  The sex tourists are the least of the country's problems.
    33
  2. <and have the nerve to say they are helping them by giving them money> With approval from said child's family?
    29
  3. $15 = 759.3 local currency.
    19
  4. Because men and boys don't matter, remember? They're not allowed to be victims.
    18
  5.  @ThePickleUpYourNose  Whatever, simp!
    14
  6.  @danielthornton5101  I can imagine. Simps generally have more money than sense.
    12
  7. Hardly. On a regular day, most of her clients are other Brown men. The sad thing is those geezers' economic compassion far exceeds whatever compassion she gets from her own family and society.
    12
  8.  @ihmsfm1040  And neither are most of the kids' family members depending on them to earn that bread.
    9
  9.  @itsmartv0309  They're no more sicker than her own family and countrymen that turned her out.
    8
  10. @Matt Frazier Of course they chose to. But I aso say it's enabled by the women of the countries they're traveling to all too happy to provide it for them.
    8
  11.  Lasse Riise  LOL. How are they freeloading and taking advantage when the girls voluntarily chose to be in the documentary for free?
    8
  12.  @AlexandraCollins  Sex tourists are not responsible for the DR's dismal state of affairs. That's something you need to take up with the DR government.
    7
  13.  @annie_xo  Enabled by the women of the countries they're traveling to.
    6
  14. He may forgive us all, but we're still responsible for our sins and He demands that we change our ways.
    5
  15.  @prarthanaperera1997  It doesn't change the fact that she still chose to do it anyways.
    5
  16. @Matt Frazier How exactly? How is he taking advantage of a girl who chose to deal with him? LOL. Because it's business. Not charity. A business that the girl agreed to do with him. LOL. Her situation is not his responsibility.
    5
  17. What goodness? There was never any goodness for them to stray away from. And as sleazy as they are, they done far more to help those children than their own families which is an indictment against the families of said children.
    5
  18. He doesn't owe her a damn thing.
    4
  19. Hardly. Those perverts didn't force her to do anything.
    4
  20.  @prarthanaperera1997  While she's all too happy to have sex with him for said money. In other words, she's free to reject him yet she chose to accept him.
    4
  21. 14:50 That's that Quebecois accent alright.
    4
  22. Feminists and modern women are not going to like what you just said. LOL
    4
  23.  @firefightergtx3281  Exactly.
    4
  24. Cardi B was born and raised in the US, not the DR.
    3
  25. Not really as women enable it.
    3
  26.  @ioanna_vsl  This is the secular humanist atheist God and religion-free society we advocated. These are the results.
    3
  27. Exactly.
    3
  28.  @viovenda8922  According to some of the girls and their families, it is as apparently, there is no benefit to being exploited by their own countrymen lest they're higher up in the DR food chain.
    3
  29. This is on the family and the community that raised her.
    2
  30. <Blaming a poor country and an even poorer neighbourhood for this kind of exploitation would really miss the point.> Not really as they're enabling and supporting the real predators.
    2
  31. The DR's healthcare system isn't much to write home about.
    2
  32. Poverty is a consequence, not the cause.
    2
  33. This is the DR, not the US, where opportunities are next to non-existent.
    2
  34. <Is that just for the women in the family to do?> Apparently as when all else fails, for women there's always prostitution or marriage.
    2
  35. What does Cardi B have to do with this?
    2
  36. In the DR, prostitution is legal.
    2
  37. Exactly. A lot of them are basically party girls who just want to live the leisure life at the expense of their boyfriends and male acquaintances in this case.
    2
  38. Enabled and facilitated by the government and parents.
    2
  39. I see a problem. It's treating people like babies.
    2
  40. Because they deal with adult women.
    2
  41. Because the country they visit and the families of the girls in question enabled and emboldened them.
    2
  42. So you're saying that Brown people are too weak and stupid to fend for themselves?
    2
  43. There are jobs. It's just that they only go to the well-connected as nepotism is the rule.
    2
  44. Considering how limited the Dominican economy is, working at a call center is one of the better paying jobs to get for a person with limited education and qualifications.
    2
  45. Aided and abetted by the families of the girls and the government.
    2
  46.  @710MaryJane  Only for those wages to be killed by inflation, killing off the smaller businesses with higher operating costs especially if they don't generate enough revenue to cover it requiring higher retail prices.
    2
  47. Because they don't have to?
    2
  48. Maybe you did, but many did not.
    2
  49. <she's not a victim of sex because she's choosing that , she's a victim of POVERTY because that's not in her control.> Like the other women who didn't take up prostitution despite being in that very same poverty?
    2
  50.  @prarthanaperera1997  Why?
    2
  51. You mean the more you finally decided to stop living under a rock.
    2
  52. What do you mean have to?
    2
  53. Maybe so, but technically they are helping. Far more than the girls' families and communities ever have.
    2
  54. Exactly. It's easy to be compassionate, kind and caring when it's not at your own expense.
    2
  55.  @zoecorneliabrigitte5098  Because men are not exactly in high demand.
    2
  56.  @tauriandeveaux4457  How's that a result of their poverty? Not everyone in poverty resorts to doing something illegal/unlawful/immoral to survive.
    2
  57.  @jennifercampbell8939  Those prostitutes are hardly innocent as they agreed to being in the profession.
    2
  58.  @jamesoconnor5876  LOL. Those men never claimed to be humanitarians. Decent or otherwise. And aside from payment for services rendered , they owe the girls nothing.
    2
  59.  @retiredstalker  Feminism is for rich countries.
    2
  60. In other words, why work for a living when you can ** for it?
    2
  61. Because he doesn't have to and he's not that foolish enough to offer his hard-earned something for nothing.
    2
  62. @ D&D Forever But it doesn't change the fact that she chose to engage in it and has to live with the consequences for better or worse.
    2
  63. Well, they are. The DR doesn't have much else going for it. No. Not all countries are dependent on tourism to stay afloat.
    2
  64.  @isalisa909  They really are compared to the girls' own families who either abandoned them or encouraged them to take up sex work to support the household. The money the men provide them far exceeds the monthly salary of the average local worker.
    2
  65. They don't want Americans and the world to find out their dirty little secret as they boast about how morally superior they are compared to the average American.
    2
  66. Not on the same scale.
    2
  67.  @tawtam1  Not really. How come few of the other girls and women in the very same situation as those in the video took up prostitution?
    2
  68. White guilt much?
    2
  69. In all fairness, they are as opposed to the young ladies' own families who have either abandoned them or encouraged them to take up prostitution to support the household.
    2
  70. They have no obligation to.
    2
  71. Well, in all fairness, they're doing a much better job of helping those children than their own parents and countrymen. The very same people responsible for why the children are selling themselves in the first place.
    1
  72. Not completely as poor people don't do themselves any favors with their dysfunctional behaviors.
    1
  73.  @troophill6651  That's because back then, most people didn't live past 30.
    1
  74. Not really as she'll most likely leave him once she gets a taste of the freedom and opportunities she could only dream of having back in her native country.
    1
  75. The same elsewhere where the law is seldom enforced to protect the local gravy train if not perfectly legal?
    1
  76. $15 USD = 825.15 Dominican Pesos.
    1
  77. <it’s sad that religion destroys so many lives.> Like Atheism throughout the 20th century via communism and fascism?
    1
  78. They want the easy way out.
    1
  79. $15 USD = 759.30 DR Pesos.
    1
  80. Rich with resources, but poor with brains.
    1
  81. $15 USD = 759.30 DR Peso.
    1
  82. Not exactly. The problem will just simply be carried on by the Dominicans themselves.
    1
  83.  @sheldonhighsmith3333  I'm Black. White tourists are the least of the DR's problems.
    1
  84.  @dominicanbikinibeauties6537  And the currency the White sex-tourists bring in is worth a lot more and in turn can get them more.
    1
  85. Poverty is a symptom of something else.
    1
  86.  @austineopiyofilms4124  Ignorance and laziness.
    1
  87. Not really as that just enables dependency.
    1
  88. And yet turned into a shameless brothel for Canadians and Europeans as Castro once boasted about Cuban prostitutes being the most educated.
    1
  89. Her grandmother and her brothers are her pimps.
    1
  90. 10 530 DR Pesos.
    1
  91. That and their families.
    1
  92.  @aeshaalberts7560  How so?
    1
  93.  @nightcrawler9816  Compared to their own country, America is all that great.
    1
  94. It's not their problem.
    1
  95. Not according to Germany, New Zealand or Australia.
    1
  96. Many post-colonial countries wanted fascism and communism as their model. And these are the general results. Tyranny, economic stagnation and ruin, a defeated and apathetic populace, etc.
    1
  97. And before their colonialist forefathers, it was your own rival tribes who brought this upon your people.
    1
  98. Well, their own men ain't feeding them. That's for sure.
    1
  99. <and food and medical care is plentiful and free,> But often in short supply.
    1
  100. The biggest encouragers of this are the families of the girls. The tourists are the least of their problems.
    1
  101. The DR is 73% mixed.
    1
  102. Not really. They would have been just housewives to some semi-well-off local.
    1
  103.  @TheBalterok  Exactly. This is more of an indictment against non-White men than the White sex-tourists.
    1
  104. Candi deserves nothing. If she wants something, she can get up off her ass and earn it like everyone else.
    1
  105. She's way too old for adoption.
    1
  106. As compensation for all the customers she lost out on.
    1
  107. Double shame on the Brown men who allow it by opening their borders for them in the name of foreign investment.
    1
  108. Yet they have done for those girls than their own families who either abandoned them or are depending on their dealings with the tourists to keep afloat.
    1
  109. They have a point, though, as tourism makes up a good portion of that country's overall economy.
    1
  110. LOL. That's just you imagination. Passport Bros. are only into women of legal age.
    1
  111.  @shellguiden6968  And an ignorant and demoralized populace.
    1
  112. @Snowflake Gacha Accidents? LOL. She chose to let her customers come in her.
    1
  113. Poverty is not a valid excuse for crime.
    1
  114. Well, they done a lot more for her than her own family and community.
    1
  115. No they don't. And Islam imports prostitutes non-Muslim women in the UAE, Qatar, etc.
    1
  116. @Derrick Jensen While the only prosperous Muslim countries are oil-rich uber-theocratic monarchies dependent on the US for military protection.
    1
  117. Or recruit them and turn them out.
    1
  118. None of the girls in the video were forced into it, though.
    1
  119. Exactly.
    1
  120. And even more terrible that the government, families and the communities of these poor uneducated women enable and support this.
    1
  121. The DR is like every other Latin American country. It has a racial and social caste system.
    1
  122. That's the average Karen in the West.
    1
  123.  @bye230  It's still is a choice. The billions upon billions of women who came from similar backgrounds that didn't resort to prostitution to make it in life is testament to that.
    1
  124. Hardly. It's the laziness and ignorance of the people and the leadership.
    1
  125.  @Isaiasguerrerorivas  No it doesn't judging by the vast majority of people in poverty that don't resort to doing something illegal/immoral/unlawful to get money.
    1
  126.  @matth23e2  Or those industries are a lot smaller because the DR is not particularly business or entrepreneur-friendly. Looks like the DR's poverty is by government policy as is with a lot of poor countries where government bureaucrats and those with ties are the only wealthy people around.
    1
  127. Equality doesn't exist.
    1
  128. State-run economy. The general lack of (larger-scale) private enterprise.
    1
  129. He's an SJW. It figures.
    1
  130. Like you.
    1
  131. Not quite.
    1
  132. Motivated by delusions of grandeur.
    1
  133. It's the DR, not the US. And prostitution is generally legal.
    1
  134.  @collinsjean2422  And most of their revenue comes from citizens working and living abroad.
    1
  135. No. The world always has been a cruel and messed up place since day one.
    1
  136. <Thinking she just made the wrong choice is so ignorant,> Not really as plenty of women in her situation didn't resort to prostitution to survive.
    1
  137. Maybe because they have no obligation to?
    1
  138.  @Acidreflux0000  <If they had more options they wouldn’t do what they do. THATS NOT WILLING.> Actually yes they would as some desire the easy way out in life.
    1
  139. Welcome to the real world. No one is giving them money, because no one has to. They have to get their own like everyone else.
    1
  140. @Camilla Johansson Maybe when women stop allowing themselves to be used as sex toys.
    1
  141. But they have no real incentive to as they make a lot of money from remittance payments by citizens working abroad and whatever kickbacks from the foreign businesses they allow to operate.
    1
  142. The DR's IQ is on par with India's.
    1
  143. Why don't you do it instead if you care so much? It's easy to be a humanitarian on someone else's dime.
    1
  144. Not much worse than women and money.
    1
  145. No. The Dominican government are the biggest culprits. They were the ones who granted the sex tourists visas to enter the country.
    1
  146.  @shairafaiza7261  Nothing. WTF is wrong with you?
    1
  147. <anyone having much and not caring to share some of their wealth with these less fortunate kids.> But the less fortunate are owed nothing. And those with much have every right not to share.
    1
  148. The tourists don't owe them anything. That's why.
    1
  149. And the community.
    1
  150.  @Paul-hw4dg  <Charity would be giving the women money without asking for anything in return.> But in the process make the women dependent as they will no longer have the ability or desire to do for selves.
    1
  151. Like who? corporate drones and retired public-sector workers who usually vote for pro-choice left-leaning governments?
    1
  152.  @Brad_Jenkins  No. Blue state far-left wackos claiming to be woke.
    1
  153.  @Brad_Jenkins  Um. This video is more a product of the sexual liberation the left advocate in the name of women's rights than any taking away of women's healthcare.
    1
  154.  @Brad_Jenkins  Whatever, limousine liberal!
    1
  155.  @Brad_Jenkins  Okay, Weinstein!
    1
  156. But the women here at home have options. The women in the average 3rd-world country? No so much.
    1
  157. LOL. No. Poverty does not cause this as there are plenty of women in poverty that don't resort to selling themselves just to make ends meet. Poverty cannot be eliminated as that's the default state of humanity.
    1
  158. That's because the DR has no private sector, no middle class and no (economic) freedom due to state bureaucracy.
    1
  159. Europeans made the DR unless you forgot about the Spanish.
    1
  160. Servicing locals?
    1
  161. Exactly.
    1
  162. It's not happening in every country, because not every country is dependent on tourism to keep afloat.
    1
  163.  @daedraq  They're doing nothing about it because they benefit from it by social control.
    1
  164. I say the parents and the community are even worse. They're the ones that primed them up to get exploited by the customers.
    1
  165. @-Apollo - Not really. Most of their customers on an average day are locals.
    1
  166.  @dexterking7662  LOL. The dude was a cuck and a pimp.
    1
  167. Since when was the world ever equal?
    1
  168. Unlike White cultures, POC societies have minimal economic opportunities. Outside interference aside, much of it has to with the models/policies of their leadership resulting in a weak/non-existent private sector, a weak/non-existent safety net, corruption and nepotism, and significant portion of the population being too unskilled and uneducated to do anything beyond subsistence level.
    1
  169. Better question: where are the girls' parents?
    1
  170.  @JazzFunkNobby1964  Exactly. It's easy to be compassionate and empathetic when it's at someone else's expense.
    1
  171. In a country like the DR, the gap is that big. There isn't much of a middle class aside from government workers.
    1
  172. This is just a case of her playing the victim to absolve herself of her own culpability.
    1
  173. Not all women are innocent.
    1
  174. Not necessarily. Especially in the absence of a thriving economy and opportunities.
    1
  175. Half of the (sex) tourists that visit Cuba are from Canada.
    1
  176. No it can't. Quit blaming money for your lack of integrity.
    1
  177. As some of the weak and less fortunate will actively fight against entities/people supposing to protect them to maintain the livelihoods they made from exploitation.
    1
  178. R Kelly isn't White, though.
    1
  179.  @lwmson  Exactly.
    1
  180. $15 USD = 885.21 Dominican Pesos
    1
  181. No. Not all places are dependent on tourism to stay afloat. <Socialism looks better and better compared to capitalism> Only in the dreams of trust-fund babies and bottom-feeders.
    1
  182. And the people themselves don't care about each other.
    1
  183. No more crueler than the families that turned those children out and groomed them for the life of prostitution or the government who allow it to happen to keep the economy going.
    1
  184.  @mickymousehubby7791  What society? The tourists owe Dominican society nothing as they're outsiders.
    1
  185.  @mickymousehubby7791  Wrong! Society =/= full earth. Globalism doesn't live here.
    1
  186. Exactly. When all else fails for the woman, there's always prostitution or marriage.
    1
  187. And watch that money run out quick as the number of contributors diminish and the number of freeloaders grow. LOL
    1
  188. LOL. Haiti has more prostitution than you think.
    1
  189. <It just makes me sad that people can go to these countries and knowingly exploit these people,> With approval and support of those countries' governments and families of those people.
    1
  190. The poor have no agency?
    1
  191. Exactly. And also she's not playing the victim, but taking responsibility for herself trying to improve her situation.
    1
  192. LOL.
    1
  193. The latter judging by how all the other women in the very same poverty didn't resort to prostitution to survive.
    1
  194.  @acceptinglife6491  Passport Bros. don't do underaged girls.
    1
  195. But that's nothing as those women will get impregnated by their fellow countrymen 99.9% of the time.
    1
  196. How is throwing money at the problem going to save the world?
    1
  197. Prostitution is a sin. And girls in the video went out of their own way to be prostitutes.
    1
  198. The DR was founded by white Europeans.
    1
  199. Sady, they are which is why the DR government and DR natives allow it to go on.
    1
  200. As a matter of government policy.
    1
  201. LOL. And it certainly wouldn't be happening if women would stop always looking for the easy way out in life ****ing/marrying strange men for money as opposed to doing an honest day's work even if the pay isn't all that great. But I forgot! No one, especially men, are allowed to tell women what to do. Apparently, women want freedom of choice until that freedom of choice gets them into trouble.
    1
  202. But the DR doesn't have the kind of economy to support social benefits.
    1
  203.  @aadityabhetuwal5990  Not really. More oppressed by short-sightedness and wanting to seek easy solutions to hard problems.
    1
  204. And it lowered its moral standards, because it thought itself as too "educated and advanced" for God, kicking him to the curb in favor of secular humanism.
    1
  205. LMAO. Exactly. Fucking = working if you let women tell it.
    1
  206.  @PH-VG  And if he was alive, she'd be the first person to yell "CRUCIFY HIM!" like virtually everyone else of his time.
    1
  207. Exactly.
    1
  208.  @dominicanbikinibeauties6537  Hardly. Most Black dudes are too poor for that.
    1
  209. Including you?
    1
  210.  @Angel-gp6tx  No. Ignorance is the biggest problem.
    1
  211. Only after people from so-called backwards countries had 1st dibs.
    1
  212. I wouldn't blame them any more than the local governments and families that enable and allow it.
    1
  213. With the approval of the brown men that run the countries those old white dudes travel and the families of said kids.
    1
  214. Not really.
    1
  215. Or the number of Dominican ladies who'll happily sell themselves even in the face of other options.
    1
  216. Like the average commie.
    1
  217.  @rachelrabb  Not really. Much of their current problems are due to the socialist (fascist and communist alike) policies adopted post-independence in favor of state-control of every aspect of life.
    1
  218. Because the country's economic policies doesn't allow for much large-scale (domestic) private enterprise.
    1
  219. Simple. There was none, because back then, the average life expectancy in England was far lower. So, 15yo as the age of consent was appropriate.
    1
  220. Especially in the tropical heat.
    1
  221. The ruling elites. They control all the money coming in.
    1
  222.  @NinoNiemanThe1st  <NON-WHITE 3rd world men cannot afford to fly there> Restricting them to locals to satisfy their urges.
    1
  223. I blame Africans and South Americans for allowing it to go on.
    1
  224. LOL. Gay for pay.
    1
  225. Maybe if that country actually had a half-decent private sector and allowed some kind of economic freedom.
    1
  226. Enabled by Black and Brown parents and Black and Brown-majority governments.
    1
  227.  @Acidreflux0000  Hardly. Black men are in no financial position to overtake white men.
    1
  228.  @viovenda8922  Not really as the high school girls prefer that over getting a part-time job to pay for said bags and clothes. All in the name of "the easy life." From getting spoiled by their fathers to getting spoiled (and ran through) by their sugar-daddies and male acquaintances.
    1
  229. Nah. They sell themselves to pay for their drug habit.
    1
  230. Yet those pathetic tourist men have done more for her than her own family.
    1
  231. Not according to her own family.
    1
  232. What's Thailand's excuse?
    1
  233. This is the Godless religion-free world you asked for.
    1
  234.  @4horsemenoftheapocalypse58  Doesn't matter. The world got exactly what it asked for.
    1
  235. The DR isn't socialist, but its private market is rather weak.
    1
  236.  @tareeksmith4856  Exactly.
    1
  237.  @tareeksmith4856  True.
    1
  238. <or more likely does not have enough money to do it> It does have the money. It's just those people are not the government's priority.
    1
  239. No. Her own family failed her.
    1
  240. And then Fidel legalized prostitution in the 90's to compensate for the loss of Soviet aid.
    1
  241. Like in North Korea?
    1
  242. They're nothing compared to the family and community that pimped those girls out.
    1
  243. But Atheism is not a viable solution.
    1
  244. .<how embarrassing to see people from my country talking about how there would be nothing if the sex trade were removed from the DR...> It's embarrassing, because it's true especially for the coastal towns in the DR dependent on tourism for their economic survival. 11.6% of the DR's GDP come from tourism.
    1
  245. This is a by-product of a state-run economy where there is not much economic freedom.
    1
  246. Also an enabling family.
    1
  247. LOL. How are those girls paying taxes? Is their business registered?
    1
  248. The DR is not a socialist country, though. I think you're mistaking it for Cuba.
    1
  249. You have to change the people as well. It's the people that elected said government to rule them.
    1
  250. I'm from there.
    1
  251. Either they suck at managing money or they charge too little.
    1
  252.  @valleych_ld6075  Since when did being honest and telling the truth = cruel?
    1
  253.  @rainierr9356  But it's not the IMF or World Bank's fault that a lot of 3rd-world countries bankrupted themselves with mismanagement, corruption and all-round ineptitude that caused them to run to them in the first place.
    1
  254. LOL. Sex trafficking existed long before the Trans-Atlantic Slave Trade.
    1
  255. But this is the world as it always been. And some kids will experience it regardless of what you think of it morally.
    1
  256.  @silverkyo1051  Who said it was okay or acceptable? And I'll shup up when you decide to come up out of that rock you been living under for time immemorial.
    1
  257. Just like it is in communist Cuba.
    1
  258. Not necessarily. They would just go back to prostituting themselves to local men.
    1
  259. It's the DR. Like most 3rd-world countries, it doesn't have a particularly robust economy.
    1
  260. If women were strong, powerful and fierce, they wouldn't be getting exploited in the first place.
    1
  261. In the DR, being darker-skinned = being Haitian.
    1
  262. Wrong country. The DR speaks Spanish. Dominica is a whole nother country.
    1
  263. Not according to the girls themselves. Um. No. I'm not a simp.
    1
  264.  @sstarklite2181  LOL. They're not forced. They were not raped. They were not trafficked. "Forced" to need money, because they're not getting it for free. The only forced here is having to get up off their butts to earn a living as they are owed nothing.
    1
  265.  @sstarklite2181  LOL. UBI is just going to make slaves out of people by way of government dependency. We already have welfare that disincentivizes work and self-sufficiency not to mention granting the government the power to micromanage people's lives. We were "forced" to need money when bartering was no longer practical due to getting more than what we had any real use for and the lopsided value of the goods being exchanged.
    1
  266.  @sstarklite2181  No it isn't. And quit playing the victim!
    1
  267. Not really. How come hardly anyone else in the very same situation are doing it?
    1
  268. <if i was a billionaire I'd fix so much shit man fffuucccckkk> No you wouldn't as your delusions of grandeur will get the best of you like every other billionaire that said the same thing.
    1
  269. <Don't mention Cuba. There is sex tourism there as well, very popular with Russian men.> And Canadian men as Canadians make up half of Cuba's clientele.
    1
  270.  @brucemarsico6  <I was advised, by a die hard Castroite, that such activity doesn't exist and is invented by 'enemies' of the Revolution.> Most likely a sheltered over-privileged Westerner who had the fortune of not being born and living in Cuba under Castro. <I guess, just another failure of the Revolution?> Cuba went from being a brothel for Americans to a brothel for everyone except Americans. Namely Canadians and Europeans. Especially after it lost its Soviet support and was forced to develop a viable economy of its own.
    1
  271.  @brucemarsico6  Follow your own advice! And I didn't call you an over-privileged westerner.
    1
  272. What about escorting?
    1
  273. Even more disgusting and careless than that is the girl's mother and grandmother.
    1
  274. Because he has no obligation to.
    1
  275. Well, in comparison to the kids's own family and countrymen, they are helping them.
    1
  276.  @doobieddooo  <They’re just gross, despicable human beings.> Who have done far more to help them than the pseudo-humanitarians on this board of the families of said child.
    1
  277. Like Nigeria and South Africa?
    1
  278. Her brothers didn't make her do anything.
    1
  279. Much of which is due to the failed economic policies of their government.
    1
  280. But none of the girls in the video were trafficked.
    1
  281. Equality does not exist.
    1
  282. Only because their country isn't big enough to establish any other viable opportunities besides tourism and maybe civil service. Like every other country in the Caribbean, the DR has no real resources.
    1
  283.  @gracesadventures7485  Namely their families. Those girls were servicing other locals long before any tourist showed up.
    1
  284. That's not really any of your business since it's their money and the only less fortunate people they care about are their own families.
    1
  285. LOL. You're being facetious, right?
    1
  286. A country is only as good as the people that live in it. Not just the people that run it.
    1
  287. Not really. If Puerto Rico was an independent country as opposed to a US Territory, it would be in the same boat.
    1
  288.  @tauriandeveaux4457  No. Not everyone who is poor are desperate to do just anything in the name of survival.
    1
  289.  @tauriandeveaux4457  It can, but it doesn't. And desperation is a symptom of fear.
    1
  290.  @yoyohooyo  Does the DR even have a McDonald's?
    1
  291.  @di7209  LOL. How come none of the other girls who didn't take up prostitution are starving to death? That's just in their own individual cases.
    1
  292. Exactly.
    1
  293. I didn't know that ordinary middle-class folks such as the sex-tourists in the video = rich elite.
    1
  294. And apparently, not even the families of said prostitutes.
    1
  295. Because they benefit from it.
    1
  296. Boys and men don't count as victims. Remember?
    1
  297. Maybe, but they have no obligation to do so.
    1
  298. No. Greed is.
    1
  299. It became an issue due to the corruption prostitution promotes.
    1
  300. All the men in her life wore her out.
    1
  301. And in turn make them co-dependent effectively unable to support themselves despite being able-bodied.
    1
  302. And since when has it ever?
    1
  303. Had White people not colonized these countries, the mass population would still be poor, just at the hand of their own people. I guess you forgot about all the child/human sacrifices, slavery, ethnic warfare. rapes, etc. that happened under their watch.
    1
  304. In comparison to those poor people's families and community, they are.
    1
  305. And there you have it. Ditto for the families of the prostitutes.
    1
  306. And leave the girls at the mercy of their local exploiters.
    1
  307. Because the parents are complicit?
    1
  308. Because hardly anyone, even the poorest of Americans, resort to prostitution to put food on the table. The video is a testament to the failure of the DR government and its socio-economic model along with the people that elected said government.
    1
  309. All women are owed nothing. They can earn it like everyone else.
    1
  310. LOL. Yes they do as hardly any other DR woman in their situation took up prostitution.
    1
  311. But even sicker locals who prostituted said innocent child.
    1
  312. What's stopping you from helping them?
    1
  313.  @pratikghosh9252  Let me ask you again. What is stopping you from helping them? And to answer the question what will they eat, well, there's always the locals. After all, that's who their 1st clients were before the tourists came.
    1
  314.  @pratikghosh9252  Most Dominicans don't live in the mountainous region.
    1
  315.  @yuraimagonzales7671  But it doesn't change the fact that they much rather do that than work a legal job.
    1
  316. Not nearly as much as socialism is as practiced in Cuba where women prostitute themselves to supplement their meager state wages.
    1
  317. RIGHT! No one forced her to sell anything to tourists. And that's in spite of the poverty.
    1
  318. And people don't care about your existence.
    1
  319. Capitalism does not owe poor countries anything let alone help.
    1
  320. Exactly. If anything, this is an indictment against DR society from the government on down to her family.
    1
  321. While women of color worship White men as lord and savior seeing them as the ultimate solution to all their lives' problems.
    1
  322. LOL @ independent. Yeah while still begging men to subsidize it.
    1
  323. But men have proven time and time again that they don't care as long as they get laid. The girl's looks are for the most part irrelevant.
    1
  324. The 76-year-old in the video is just a regular pensioner.
    1
  325. Actually, it's 82. A full 15 points higher than its neighbor, Haiti.
    1
  326.  @gladlock  And rightfully so. Why can't Liberals do anything at their own expense?
    1
  327. It's because $15 USD goes rather far in the DR.
    1
  328. Only for them to squander it and end up right back to square one. And what kind of god condones laziness?
    1
  329. Mileage.
    1
  330.  @Acidreflux0000  They were willing. Prostitution is not the only way to survive poverty.
    1
  331. Education is nothing if there are no opportunities to make efficient use of said education. Case in point: Cuba. It is race issue. Virtually all the poorest countries in the world are populated and ruled by Black and Brown people, the DR included.
    1
  332. I say even more shame on the sleazy locals who turned the children out and groomed them for said sleazy tourists, enabled by their sleazy government in the name of foreign investment.
    1
  333. Enabled by sleazy locals.
    1
  334. As poor as the DR is, it has nothing on Africa or its neighbor, Haiti, when it comes to being poor.
    1
  335. They're no more sleazier than the locals who turned out and groomed those 14-year-olds.
    1
  336.  @gaddafix4297  It was the locals who primed them up for "that life."
    1
  337. <the life is forcing her to be one.> No. How come few of the other girls and women in her situation took up prostitution?
    1
  338. Those who buy her services didn't fail her.
    1
  339.  @markcynic808  And also, even if they did have that kind of money, few of them are willing to give up their comfortable lives in the West to help out. It's easy to talk about helping out when it's not at their own expense.
    1
  340. Or even the girl's absent mother and enabling grandmother.
    1
  341. They are. Unlike the girls family. And they have every right to expect something in return as it's a business transaction, not a charity offering. No more sicker than the families of the girls prostituting themselves that live off of them or the DR government who allowed those sex tourists in the country.
    1
  342. That would be 3 355 000 people
    1
  343. <what will happen to them? > They'll just simply go back to selling themselves to locals.
    1
  344. Then start your own business.
    1
  345. Enabled by and supported by non-Western families and governments.
    1
  346.  @harveyholmes9533  But if there were no Western pedophiles, the demand would just come from local non-Western pedophiles.
    1
  347. $15 USD = 873.15 Dominican Pesos.
    1
  348. And there is no proper authority without a well-armed and trained organization able and willing to enforce it on behalf of said proper authority.
    1
  349. While those who followed your advice of not having kids forfeited their own future and legacies in favor of a hedonist lifestyle that will die with them.
    1
  350. But isn't this the matriarchy you so clamored for?
    1
  351. And water is wet.
    1
  352. No. I blame the parents of the girls. As corrupt as the government official are, they have nothing to do with why those girls became prostitutes.
    1
  353. Unless you're among the well-connected.
    1
  354.  @tawtam1  I'm basing it on reality. Most women are not taking up prostitution at the first sign of financial hardship.
    1
  355.  @tawtam1  Yes it does, because I live it. You don't.
    1
  356. Agreed.
    1
  357. $30 USD = 1579.50 DR Pesos.
    1
  358. Link: https://worldcigaretteprices.com/en/price-for-cigarettes-in-dominican-republic-115/
    1
  359. The same "real" men in DR that turned them out?
    1
  360. Especially for women. Why work for a living when you can ****/marry for it?
    1
  361. And so is the government and society.
    1
  362. But not to the same degree as none of those countries are as poor as the DR is. And you forgot to mention R Kelly, Oxfam, etc.
    1
  363. What about ignorance and greed?
    1
  364. <She's been selling sex to EVERYONE who will pay for it, > When it isn't to the tourists, it's to her neighbors and countrymen.
    1
  365. Hardly. The IMF and World Bank are not responsible for the policies countries adopted that bankrupted them leading them to run for a bailout in the first place.
    1
  366. But $15 USD is worth a lot in their country.
    1
  367. The interviewer owes her nothing.
    1
  368. No more terribly selfish than the families that sold them to those men to support the household.
    1
  369.  @marleeeden250  Not really. They come to do this because the DR government and the unscrupulous locals families allowed them to.
    1
  370. They have "too many babies" for a reason. In the DR's case, that's their social safety net
    1
  371. They don't owe her any help?
    1
  372. @ Hakos kosko A by-product of feminism.
    1
  373.  @joshuawilson9920  Because women, girls, whatever you want to call them are pushovers.
    1
  374. Only to get treated like black Americans in Spain and mainland Latin America. LMAO
    1
  375. Poverty is nothing compared to ignorance.
    1
  376. LOL. No. The DR doesn't have welfare.
    1
  377. No more than the parents and fellow countrymen who turned them out and groomed them.
    1
  378. What world? The DR is not the world's responsibility.
    1
  379.  @clarak.mallah4137  And you're just the typical SJW. Delusional and arrogant on top of being stupid and evil.
    1
  380. In other words, females are not allowed to suffer anything. Only males.
    1
  381. With some men, any pussy is better than no pussy at all.
    1
  382. @Derrick Jensen LMAO
    1
  383. $15 = 789.75 in local money.
    1
  384.  @patd6370  Not according to the government. Or even the citizens themselves apparently.
    1
  385. For what? Just existing?
    1
  386. No. Try greed.
    1
  387. Because their country's job market is next to non-existent. That's state-controlled economy for you.
    1
  388. But they are. And have show far more "compassion" than those children's own families and countrymen that turned them out.
    1
  389. Who's we? Anyways, this is humanity's true nature in the absence of God and moral/spiritual authority guiding it.
    1
  390. With help from other Africans.
    1
  391. Since when has life ever been balanced?
    1
  392.  @Eiramul  Exactly.
    1
  393. But it's not going to come from socialism. That's for sure.
    1
  394.  @richardjuukovsky141  Because due to the human condition that no one is above, we will run right back into the same old problems with that something new. Why socialism? It's the only system that ever claimed to be a viable alternative to capitalism. Yet all it has produced is tyranny, poverty, genocide along with the exploitation, privilege and monopolization capitalism is accused of. <The rich and powerful obviously do not have an answer, but why must we all be reduced to their limitations that can only go as far as exploitation or privilege and monopolisation?> Neither do the poor. And the poor are anything but innocent evidenced by the families and community of the girls in question. The rich and powerful don't reduce us anymore than we reduce ourselves out of our own fear and ignorance.
    1
  395. Social control.
    1
  396.  @tomrobbins5242  LOL. By making them sex dolls for Canadian and Western European tourists to supplement their otherwise meager government wages.
    1
  397. It's called escorting and being a sugar baby.
    1
  398. Nah. Prostitution was made by women. After all, it's much easier to ** for a living than work for a living.
    1
  399. <it would literally be a third world country> The DR already is a 3rd-world country. Just not quite as bad as its neighbor, Haiti.
    1
  400. How about a thriving job market so they can put said better education to good use?
    1
  401. $15 USD = 759.03 DR Pesos. Those "disgusting" old men are paying the women well. Vey well!
    1
  402. Isn't this the "world without religion and God" that God/religion-haters clamored for?
    1
  403. Yes.
    1
  404. And the people are apathetic.
    1
  405. Exactly. It's the DR system that produced them.
    1
  406. Does that also apply to selfish natives as well?
    1
  407. Since day one.
    1
  408. Poor comparison. Women in Cuba prostitute themselves to supplement their otherwise meager state wages.
    1
  409. s<o please be kind!> That has its limits. At some point in time, any further kindness is just enabling and supporting bad choices.
    1
  410. White men are not responsible for Brown people's lack of moral integrity.
    1
  411. They're spineless and corrupt?
    1
  412. Maybe because they're not responsible for the situation those people happen to find themselves in.
    1
