Rover was a bad, bad boy

Dear Rover,

Me and my brother Scout are spokesdogs for Faceless International. We help teach people about human trafficking and modern slavery.

Our friend Lori told me about your radio show and how you and your friends were joking about how great it would be to buy your own sex slave. I don't think that's a very funny joke.

Girls who are sex slaves are forced to do terrible things that they do not want to do. They are taken from their mommies and get sold like puppies, but they are not even treated as good as puppies.

Human trafficking hurts other people very badly and it's not a polite thing to joke about. We are supposed to love each other and protect each other, not hurt each other.

Rover, you should know that as a dog with a radio show you have a lot of responsibility to be a good role model for other puppies and people. And I think you stunk up the airwaves with that joke.

If you want, me and Scout can give you some information about human trafficking so you can learn more about how bad it is. Just give us a bark and let us know!

Your pal,
Bandit

Man tries to sell kids on Craigslist

This weekend a man was arrested because he tried to sell his children on Craigslist. The man put up an ad that said you could buy his kids and use them as "child slaves and footstools."

Someone saw the ad on Craigslist and called the police. They arrested the bad man. He told the police Hey, it was all just a joke, haha!

No, Mr. Bad Man, it is not a joke. Do you know why? Because every day lots of little kids get sold just like you were pretending to do with your kids! And they really do get sold to people who use them for slaves.

The police said that they believe he was joking but they were mad because they had to spend all that time making sure his children were safe when they could have been out catching even badder guys.

The man got a ticket and has to go to court. I think he should get a big giant bite on the leg from a police dog.

Just in case you didn't know, you are not supposed to sell your kids. You are supposed to love your children and protect them and not make jokes out of having bad stuff happen to them. Because that kind of bad stuff really does happen to kids.

Love
Bandit

PS: Here is a real story you can read about a real girl who was a slave ... in America.

Scout and Bandit become the spokesdogs for Faceless International

Guess what? Me and Scout have some super cool fantastic news to share!!

We're going to be the spokesdogs for Faceless International! (You remember, we wrote about Faceless before.)

Isn't that great? They're going to use me and Scout to help teach kids about the very serious problem of human trafficking.

No, human trafficking is not when forty-leven hundred people all try to cross the street at the same time.

Human trafficking is when bad people steal other people and sell them, or force them to do horrible things that they do not want to do, and keep them in terrible places without food and water and won't let them go home to their mommies no matter how much they cry.

It is not a nice thing at all.

Me and Scout are going to help Sarah and Nancy and Super Cool Lori Lenz answer questions and tell stories and teach our readers about this, and tell you how you can help.

Plus, and this is really exciting, Mommy says one of us pups is going to take a road trip with her and maybe even visit some schools and people who are helping Faceless! I know it'll be me she takes, because Scout doesn't like to ride in the car.

So keep checking back for more stuff about Faceless International and how you can help fight human trafficking. You won't even have to leave your house.

LOVE
BANDIT!!!
