Unjust

The United States is one of the only countries that continues to prosecute the 'prostitutes' and not the 'johns'.  For all of you who don't know, a 'john' is the name that is used to describe the man who purchases these women and children.  In most countries, the law is that the john's are punished harsher than the women; however, in the United States, the opposite is true.

I recently watched a short documentary on the Oxygen channel called 'Sex Workers or Victims?'  It dealt with trafficking within the United States.  It went through the recruitment of these young girls, their life under the control of a pimp and then for many of them, their arrests, trials, and jail life.  How can these girls be punished and the men who abuse them, use them, and traffic them within our United States go free?
