"Johns": that's what they are called. Those who buy sex. Johns come in all forms. We think they're the sleazy, depraved people on the corner. But they're fathers, mothers, brothers, uncles, aunts, sons, grandparents... They're your neighbors, your friends, your coworkers. We excuse their behavior because that's just the way of the world. We call it sexual urges that need to be satisfied. But it's inexcusable. Real lives are at stake. We must ask ourselves as a society: how can adults have such selfish intentions to harm the most vulnerable among us? We must stop the demand for children, so we can stop the supply.
