Look you guys must be really desperate to get peoples attention. But anyone reading this knows that if a kid was kidnapped or abducted and placed into slavery and sexually abused AND the captors let you go AND you lived to talk about it this would become one of the most sensational stories of the century. This would pale against the Charles Manson story in a heart beat.
Sorry, I just dont buy it and I dont think anyone else will either.

Because you refuse to look at anything. You take things out of context, twist them, outright lie and otherwise completely make an ass out of yourself.
I wasn't bought and sold like Kizzy, it wasn't Chinese Water Torture, I wasn't gang raped and I wasn't personally beaten. BUT.....I was bought for an initial fee of a couple of thousand dollars then monthly installments of $______ (I'm still trying to figure out how much money my parents paid). I was required to do "speaking engagements" in promotion of Straight for at least a year. I worked in the thrift store with proceeds going to Straight and never saw a dime.
No Chinese Water Torture but Straight did study the effects of and use extremely liberally....sleep deprivation, isolation from the outside world and intense peer culture pressure that the Chinese and Koreans had developed for the re-education of the American prisoners that they held captive. They combined that with the therapeutic communities that Synanon started, most notably "The Game" ("raps" at Straight.... LGATs, Discovery Seminars at other places.).
I wasn't raped but I was forced to listen to some of the most explicit sexual experiences that I had no idea of at that age. I was expected to come up with something equally as degrading and if I didn't, I was called the most vulgar names imaginable for hours on end, day after day. They told me that they were "throwing my past up in my face" so that I would "realize how far down I had gone". At the end of these marathon sessions after I would sit down the whole group and staff would yell, "Love ya Anne" in unison. I wanted to throw up every time. I wasn't raped, but when I spoke of being sexually abused when I was 7, I was told to focus on what
I[/b] did to cause or contribute to the situation. I know of two girls who were raped during the time I was there.
I wasn't beaten (physically at least) because I was too scared to step out of line, but I saw countless people get slammed to the floor (staff called it "restraining" them...ya know, for their own good :roll: ) for not having their feet flat on the floor (hey, a rule is a rule right?). I wasn't beaten, but I saw countless kids spend weeks in the "time out room" being bounced off walls for 12 hours a day or more. I wasn't beaten physically but I was expected to function on 2-3 hours of sleep a day, if we were lucky. Push out enough tears in the "past" part of the rap (1 of about 6 during the day) not to trigger a confrontation for "being out of touch". Try to keep my eyelids from drooping so not to trigger a confrontation for "something going on" because I had dark circles under my eyes. I wasn't beaten but I was put on a peanut butter diet for about 3 1/2 weeks at a time where I had two pieces of white bread with a slab on peanut butter on it and a dixie cup of water 3 times a day, nothing else. I wasn't beaten but the stress did manage to completely and fully stop my menstruation for the entire 23 months that I was there. It happened to every single other girl in there too. My doctor (years after I got out) was horrified. She couldn't imagine the amount of physical and emotional stress it would take to stop a group of about 175 girls from having their periods..
Tell me again how I wasn't tortured asshole.
