Anyone else see the "human trafficking, it's not okay" billboard in BR?

Between the Highland and Siegen exits on I-10. Will try to get a pic today.
Because frankly, before seeing this, I thought Human Trafficking was on the up and up. Thankfully this billboard has shown me the light.
Maybe next they'll come out with "Cooking Babies in pies: it's not okay."
Or
"Poisoning the water supply: it's not okay."
Who in the world thinks these ridiculous signs are a good use of money?

maybe some human trafficker will drive by that sign today and think to himself "you know...maybe I should release all these 13 year old Asian girls in the back of my van because goddammmit, ITS NOT OK"
you never know

You might want to research the issue before spouting off about it.
Eta: never mind I agree it could be worded better. But it's a huge problem that a lot of people do think is "okay," especially in forms most people might not associate with human trafficking. It is usually a lot more subtle than 16 Thai girls in a rape van.

I'll be honest.. When I first saw one of those signs a few ago, I wondered what the sign was doing in Baton Rouge.. After doing a little research , I realized that Baton Rouge is far from immune to this type of crimanality. In essence, the sign worked.

probably the same ppl that think the Aids is a Civil RIghts billboard was a good idea.

Bobby Jingles. That's his latest cause célèbre to deflect attention away from his theft of half a billion dollars from the state employees insurance plan.

While we are talking billboards in br, what does that tiny arse print on the beau rivage one say?

It's funny, the first time I saw it my wife and I were in the middle of the age-old "Human trafficking is awesome- No it's not" debate. Then we pass this billboard and we were like "oh shite, I guess that settles it".

Need a "Murder, it's not okay" billboard on MLK (I110)

Pies. No.
Gumbo, fine.
Damn good on the grill.

It's called raising awareness for those that are unaware. Would you prefer another "Truck accident? Let us help YOU!!' billboard instead?
Posted on 9/18/14 at 8:30 am to fr33manator
I know its a funny sign and all, but a lot of idiots on this board think prostitution is ok and harmless and everyone is willing participant. they have no idea how much human trafficking is involved in that "harmless" profession.

I always thought it had something to do with the traffic on the new bridge

Awareness fixes all problems. Kind of like how sports teams spend thousands on pink uniforms and hats and sweat bands and cured breast cancer without spending a dime on treatment or research...oh wait...

Agreed, and I also didn't realize until last week that beating my wife and kids was frowned upon in some circles. Who knew?
