Rev. Galen Guengerich holds a child's shoes and stands next to a stack used as a symbol for child sex trafficking, as he speaks during a protest rally outside the Village Voice on Thursday, March 29, 2012 in New York. A coalition of religious and civic leaders demanded that the Village Voice stop running their adult classified section. The protesters say the section is being used by sex traffickers peddling underage prostitutes.
