I watched a movie the other day that got me thinking. It is an anime movie known as Kite Liberator. It is a sort of sequel to the original cult classic Kite. That doesn't matter really though, what matters is the premise the what the movie is about. The movies are both about a young school girl who lives a double life. By day she's a normal girl, but at night she's an assassin who hunts down sexual predators. Both lead girls in the movies have had to go though some form sexual assault, and such themselves. There pretty cool movies, but the the idea got me sort of thinking. How many children, teens, and mostly woman have to deal with sexually predators.
It's sad to have too hear Amber Alerts from time to time. I remember a quote from Batman Beyond in which Terry remarks "I can't believe all these children are missing." Then Bruce says "Believe it." Then there are things like what happens in the movie Taken. Human trafficking is a real thing, and unfortunately seams to have no end. I only wish to make some awareness to it. I feel that it just isn't mentioned enough these days. I remember in school, and on T.V. as a child there used to be so much on stranger danger and such. Nowadays days it seam non existent.
I believe we need more awareness of things such as sexual predators, and human trafficking. Part of helping the problem is realizing it, and I just don't feel that is being approached enough. Politicians focus so much on things like gay rights, abortions, and gun control when there are far more serious matters at hand. Hell I think an unnamed assassin who hunts down rapist is probably something we need. Because the way I see it most people don't realize how serious this is. We don't see it, but we need to know it exists. There will never be a full solution, but that doesn't mean we can't fight back against the problem.
Some people deserve a bullet to the head, but no one should ever have to live wondering weather their daughter is alive, or has been subjected to worse.
