It isn't about punishment or indignation since neither can prevent that kind of practice from happening indefinately afterwards. In some places this kind of practice has become their tradition with all sectors of the society involved. You can't punish everyone.
As well, I bet, many locals probably consider defending this practice defending a natual right, a legacy. I recall a line from some 電視連續劇 years back. It was so long ago that I can't neither recall the story nor the title of it, yet this line impressed me ever since given its brutal irony. It was monologized by some leader of some nomadic people that carried out periodic invasions southward in order to harvest the necessities from agricultural peoples for their own survival. Upon hearing that the south had eventually organized an army to resist their invasions, the leader thought it was unfair: "The grass feeds the goats, and the goats feed the wolves. This is the law of heaven. We are the wolves. Now, the goats are resisting the wolves. This isn't right!"
Regarding our case here, what the central government should do is, I say, sending a replacement working term of qualified individuals to completely take over the local goverment for a sufficiently long period of time since the local government is already thoroughly corrupted. I believe, this was Italy (?) once did when the Mafia integration with some local government was hopelessly complex, thus irreversible.
When a place isn't yet thoroughly corrupted, it is like a basket of good and bad apples. One can remove the bad ones and keep the good ones intact. When a place is thoroghly corrupted, it is more like a swimming pool. There is no peeing section in a swimming pool as to be removed. One can only replace the whole body of waterr.
This is the right moment to implement the powerful central government. If it doesn't do anything in cases like this, why should a powerful central government be necessary?
A powerful central government and a weak one (無為而治) respectively have their advantages and disadvantages. The former should be expected with a taller moral call and more righteous involvements in undoing injustices done to the powerless. This is a justification of the powerful central government itself for a weak one shouldn't be able to do that.
But you will need to make yourself heard, not by other Chinese like yourself or me, but by westerners who can make some difference. Only that way your China bashing can be of some use. Otherwise, this time, you are wasting your own time.

我覺着是一種"動物性" - 作為中性詞去理解，好比那個電視劇中的首領的理據。
如此，也可以中性地看佛法說的業力是如何累積的。
想起最近一期''圓桌派"關於基因的自私和人性中的''真利他主義"的話題。。。
其实稍稍留意一下網上衆生，即可看到。
但我不能公开说，说了就有地域歧视之嫌，违反政治正确。在那些地方动物性大于人性，与文明社会不相容。记得一个北京女作家曾写过她的外地保姆，感觉那保姆的思维就人味很差。就像刘索拉说的，有的人天生就是坏人。在那样一个坏人成堆的地方，什么孩子都会被带坏。而恶势力猖獗的地方，当地政府必然是腐败的，甚至与恶势力沆瀣一气。
这世上披着人皮的禽兽不少。
是国家希望提高人口增长率，愚民别造反。否则，拿出当年建立新中国的气概来，一个小小的丰县不在话下。
当我指出human trafficking 是世界性问题这一基本事实就是想说此现象的普遍性反映的是人之共性，抓住实质才有可能从根本上找到有效的解决办法。我为什么要为中国政府解脱！？把毫无关联的东西拉到一起反映的是你自己的内心！
怼我的人不是极度恨中国不乱的不怀好意，就是愚蠢，没有最基本的思维素养，解决问题的能力。The whole truth tells more. Only the whole truth leads to right direction, right solutions.
在现阶段意义不大
比方说，车被偷了，当务之急是找车，抓罪犯，当然你可以说是人性，其他国家也有，既而得出种族，肤色，人性之恶等等，但现在是要解决问题
你真是頑劣！
你看他们中一些人的興奮，可曾從中看到一點悲伤？
他们表現的正是我上面說的動物性。
我们要中性地觀察這種現像。
却來關懷徐州鐵鏈女，你說是真情還是假意？
他们流露出來的依然是動物性。
還要把大家拉過來跟他和張愛玲一起看。
今天忽然换臉。不"私"了。
群性就是一种动物性。这正是重读 乌合之众 TheCrowd 的好时候。
目前的群情激愤可成就灭绝这类邪恶陋习的好事 也可造成更严重社会冲突甚至动乱。如是后者，谁最倒霉？谁看笑话？谁在拱火？谁在为大众利益出主意想办法？
回看不久前的那个黑人事件，谁在承担后果？把一个国家撕裂成什么样子？怎么演化的？我们都是目睹人。这个事件的评价是一个人良知的分水岭
Maybe. Yet 这个事件的 attitude 是一个人良知的分水岭 as well.
良知 is missing in your attitude.
让人们敬仰一下？
----对了，你来了茶轩几天呀？：））
You were defending conlonialism.
Funny, you still seem enjoying it as a victory. Perhaps it was. You suceeded in wasting my time, and very few could do that.
我就看透你的本质啦---哈哈：）

雖然用的都是中文。
