I would like to let you know that as you publish your articles on #VOP, I continue to share them on twitter, and VOP continue to retweet, and tweet your articles as well a lot of the time.

I'm writing now because this message came in, from a supporter, and I know it will warm your heart:

Keep up the great work, your reporting is needed and you matter so much @practicalthought <3<3<3

Thank you Lyndsay. I appreciate your kind words and support. It's amazing the reach we have at our disposal if we choose to use it. One that can be used for more than duck faces and narcissistic pursuits. I am hopeful that those who may be unaware of what is going on down there has read or will read my posts that may not have encountered Lewis or VOP, or if they have it has only been in a slanderous way. That through reading my posts they will go see the evidence for themselves straight from the source.

I am way behind schedule as this job I had to take is hard on my body. But in the coming weeks I will be using my previous experience in self publishing to do my own ministry in the form of a published newsletter that will ultimately be compiled into books once enough of them are written. The VOP efforts will make up a good part of each issue, as well as the other schemes they use like Foster Care/CPS. I am hopeful that it will be another avenue that will bring attention to all of this, as well as mark a new beginning for myself. I have been much inspired in these last 9 months or so. By Lewis and those in his ministry, by so many of you here on Steemit. 2019 will mark the year I put my efforts full force into a ministry of my own. What a beautiful world this would be if all chose to focus their eyes and actions of the care of their brothers and sisters. It is selfish to wait for others in sadness to act first. The actions should happen regardless if others are doing or not.

If not us, then who?

It's mind boggling how much effort pedophiles put into ensuring their depraved practices are protected.

A saying that has always rang true with me is “mistakes can only happen if you are acting” and without a doubt these heroes are acting.

Never heard that before, but I really like it. There is no hero that is 100% perfect. I think you give some sound advice about documenting more while avoiding acting in ways that make it easier to blame or ridicule him.

I know this is a pretty common Bible passage, but this is what I thought of reading your post:

But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God,

The bible passage you shared is definitely an apt description of the times we find ourselves in.

I appreciate your taking in my post and weighing in so thoughtfully. It is hard stuff to digest. I hope he will alter his methods a little as they are definitely panicking and making many mistakes in their attempts to stop him.

It's such a confusing situation to view from the internet only. I am not surprised that tptb have raised the stakes with involuntary commitment, that's just the next step of the psychological warfare. Every good person out there "wishes" we were actually doing something hands on to stop child trafficking. But we know only crazy people do that, the rest of us "gave at the office" to some org or other to shift responsibility off of ourselves. Lewis is hotheaded, so now this unfortunate schism with his documentarian. This is a tragic development indeed. Thanks for your solid reporting.

Thank you for keeping up to date on this. I think it hits home for me so much as I have lived (at various times) over half my life at various times in Tucson. I am familiar with the porous border and the way Tucson is used as a hub, being only an hour from the border. Those here illegally do not take any pains to hide it there, and one can mingle with them at the Swap Meets there. Especially the one on the reservation (Westover) next to Chicos. It is only natural that if they get through, the ones who traffic in children and drugs are as well. And of course, it has been documented. What wasn't before was how bad this really is. Just an occasional story, folks assumed it was known and going to be solved now and forget about it. Lewis and VOP remind us daily no one is nor has been solving anything.

Lewis is definitely passionate, and is the perfect instrument for God to work through. I have to wonder if anyone with less passion could have lasted this long in all the cross hairs he has been in.

Every good person out there "wishes" we were actually doing something hands on to stop child trafficking. But we know only crazy people do that, the rest of us "gave at the office" to some org or other to shift responsibility off of ourselves.

I am hopeful that enough of these people will at least wake up and make this dialogue grow until the government is forced to stop supporting this.

Thanks for letting us know. I think a problem shared is problem solved. I believed the tragic scene will come to an end in a short time.
Cheers! @practicalthought
