Veterans on Patrol has Rescued Thousands of Children Sexually Trafficked in the U.S.

Appeals for More Volunteers

I have written 2 articles on the blockbuster movie Sound of Freedom, a movie that has already grossed over $85 million in less than two weeks since its release on the big screen, and these articles have received tens of thousands of readers in the past few days, even though the movie does not expose child sex trafficking in the U.S., does not name the names of those funding this child sex trafficking network, and has no call to action to stop it. See:
By way of contrast, I have exposed where much of the child sex trafficking in the U.S. is happening, with a recently published story of a man who pleaded guilty to sexually abusing young children through the foster care system, as well as an update on the ongoing lawsuits against Jeffrey Epstein’s child sex trafficking network, which DOES name names, and these two articles have received far fewer views than the Sound of Freedom film articles. See:
Top Row: CIA Director William Burns, Thomas Pritzker, executive chairman of Hyatt Hotels, Sergy Brin, co-founder of Google, Larry Page, co-founder of Google, Mort Zuckerman, a real-estate billionaire who owns US News & World Report. Bottom Row: Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase Bank, Former President Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Democratic Presidential Candidate. Full article.
In this article I am publishing today, about a group who has actually done something about child sex trafficking in the U.S., I suspect that it too will receive far fewer readers than the articles about the movie Sound of Freedom, even though this is an article about a group that has actually rescued thousands of women and children from sex trafficking right here in the U.S. during the past 7 years, and could probably rescue many more if people would join their efforts to expose and chase out the child sex traffickers neighborhood by neighborhood all across the U.S., rather than sitting in a theater and watching a movie about child sex trafficking outside the U.S.
The name of this group is Veterans on Patrol (VOP), led by Lewis Arthur, and I first learned about Lewis Arthur and his work in Arizona back in 2018, and published a few articles about VOP back then.
VOP began by working with homeless veterans, a ministry that continues until this day, and then expanded to exposing and chasing out the child sex trafficking cartels near the Arizona-Mexican border in 2018.
Today, VOP also has a presence in California, and other places, exposing the sex traffickers and working with communities to shut down their operations. They have also recently begun exposing the military’s ongoing geoengineering programs that spray dangerous and toxic chemicals from our skies every day.
You can follow their work on their Telegram channel here.
Lewis Arthur was recently interviewed by Christopher Key of Keys 2 Life. Christopher has actually visited Arthur Lewis and viewed his work at the Arizona border, and in this interview with Lewis you can hear him give a firsthand report of an ongoing operation in Oroville, California, where they have surrounded a house with known cartel members who are currently raping homeless women.
This interview should give you a good idea of who Lewis Arthur is, and the work that his group, VOP, is doing.
Here are some quotes from Lewis during the interview:
“We’re not participating in politics, we’re not looking to law enforcement or the government to solve our problems. We’re going to be our brother’s keeper, we’re going to take care of the poor, we’re going to extract those who are suffering.”
“We’re going to do what our Lord and Savior did while he was here.”
“We’ll let the world fight over the world and watch movies about child sex trafficking. We’re out on the streets putting a stop to it, neighborhood by neighborhood, and we invite anybody who doesn’t want to just sit and have that problem constantly be viewed in a new and dramatic way.”
“Let’s start showing stories about where they are being shut down.”
“All these years, I can tell you our ministry, praise God, thousands of children, THOUSANDS (have been rescued).”
“Remember, we don’t raise money, we don’t have fundraisers, we’re not a non-profit.”
Lewis states that every child coming across the border and being processed is receiving up to 10 vaccines.
The one statement he makes repeatedly is:
“You would be amazed at what God can do if you just gave him an opportunity to work through you.”
And Lewis should know, as he has constantly been harassed by law enforcement, the FBI, and even been arrested for his actions in helping victims of child sex trafficking, and yet his ministry continues until this day.
Watch the interview which begins at the 2-and-a-half-minute mark:
As Lewis states, he does not take financial support, and is not a non-profit. However, they will receive material goods sent to their operation in Arizona rescuing children at the border.
We recently published a video of people actually rescuing children at the Arizona-Mexican border which includes people with VOP. See:
Please be aware that if you have never heard of VOP and Lewis Arthur before, and decide to do an Internet search on him, all you will find will be negative hit pieces against him.
But ask yourself, if he is doing what he claims he is doing and actually rescuing women and children from child sex traffickers, without the help of law enforcement who are either working with the child sex traffickers or are powerless to stop it, then what would you expect others to say about him??
He even has his own Wikipedia page now full of attacks against him and VOP by “fact checkers” and others, a sure sign that he is making a difference and making people uncomfortable.
This group is NOT a militia, as they do not condone violence and are not armed. They first go to law enforcement in any community they start operations in, as well as the City Council if there is one, to expose the problems and inform the citizens of what is happening.
They inform law enforcement of what they are doing as a courtesy, and then recruit volunteers from the community, which in almost all cases will rally behind them and their work.
Here is a list of supplies that I was given that are immediately needed at the Arizona-Mexican border, if you want to contribute to this ministry, which does not have the backing of tens of millions of dollars that the Sound of Freedom movie does.
AZ border mailing address for supplies:
Butterfly
7820 N. Desert Quail Ln.
Tucson, AZ 85743
Current supply needs for the AZ border:
**SUPPLY REQUEST**
A couple of tents
A couple of cots
A few sleeping bags
Gift cards for gas – Speedway, Chevron, Visa or Discover gift cards.
Full Spanish Bibles. NKJV if possible.
Spanish Bibles for children/teenagers that have Old & New Testament.
If anyone feels led to give a special devotional for teenage boys and girls, that would be wonderful. It would be something special the volunteers can hand them at the border.
Bottled water.
Granola Bars

This is the kind of ACTION that is needed to stop human sex trafficking! This ministry needs boots on the ground, as this is the only way we will take back our neighborhoods from the cartels and sex traffickers.
