Trafficking, 'monstrous form of modern slavery,' killed immigrants in Texas

Trafficking, 'monstrous form of modern slavery,' killed immigrants in Texas: Distinctly Catholic: The victims had the document that mattered, the breath of life given to them by God, until that breath was extinguished by the the traffickers.

MGB:_At best, these potential slaves were bound for factory work (with low pay and poor conditions), as likely, work in fields and at worst work in the drug trade or prostitution (likely catering to undocumented migrants). My bet is that the person who is buying these people likes immigration law exactly the way it is, with a compliant workforce that can be deported if it demands humanity and a local sheriff that will track down runaways (undocumented migrants don’t get cars). At the heart, the problem is not immigration. It is capitalism. The driver knows who he was delivering to and who hired him. Getting the information from him should be no problem.

The Texas Catholic Conference is pathetic. To sell out immigrants for school cholice and abortion provisions (that likely will be overtruned) shows how much they are in the pocket of the Republican Party. The USCCB is as pathetic, but that is because Archbishop Kurtz is an arch-Republican. That is outrageous.
