[QUOTE=Amplitude;6212664]Guys, this thing of ours is not legal. Rather than pearl clutching about Ds or Rs who may or may not enforce, focus on what political ideology would be open to decriminalization. That's not the role of a sheriff. It's the role of lawmakers. And you'll certainly get no sympathy from conservative lawmakers. It's the liberals who are sympathetic. Look deeper. Because conservative Ds certainly abound. [/QUOTE]Some of us might remember that the last big crackdown on massage parlors was started by a cop-loving, rosary-rattling relatively conservative Alderman from Mount Greenwood, an area with no happy ending spas. Most of the centrist and liberal politicians in Cook Co. Aside from Dart appear to be ambivalent about the situation.

Leave it out
I know this is the bullshit thread. But please keep the liberal-conservative shit out. I have to deal way too much with that every time I turn on the news or listen to someone around here. I am guessing the vast number of people perusing this site are men that want pussy. They don't come here for political spats. Probably everyone here is a pussy hunter no matter who they vote for. So let's keep it to that.

Well I am sorry I may have started the dumpster fire, however I was really going after uncle thomas and his pursuit of headlines as opposed to a d or r after his name. Anyway he's back in so look out fellas! In better news again my cousin bradley is still my district state representative. Ok sure he sent that woman two years ago packing and no one ran against my man, however he still won so there!

[QUOTE=Amplitude;6210342]What bullshit, Stosh. Busts of this hobby in the USA are overwhelmingly conducted by conservative law enforcement. What gives you the idea that Tom Dart is an FDR liberal Progressive? Because he has a D after his name? Obviously, actual liberal-progressive public policy legalizes this hobby. Not bust it.[/QUOTE]I don't think there's a strong political bend when it comes to sex work. You can be a leftist and claim sex work exploits women. You can be a right-winger and claim sex work is unholy. You can be a leftist and claim sex work is empowering and "her body her choice" and you can be a right-winger and claim free market dynamics include one's own body.
This is one of those issues that can be seen through pretty much any lens you want.

"sex trafficking" being very prominent imo. Many not all of course some of these busts especially in massage parlors tend to be after a long series of surveillance video, cops posing as customers coming in and? First then the bust. And then the hi-jacked phrase comes out. I know underage and trafficked women and men BTW exists and it is an issue, however every case is for ever thus? Doubtful. Stosh peace out.

I agree on Dart. I don't think it has anything to do with liberal or conservative. It's about getting votes. Imagine any candidate for sheriff coming out and saying "I'm no longer going after Johns. They are simple hardworking men fulfilling their need for pussy they often are not getting at home. " Boy, what a vote getter! The problem is that we are low hanging fruit. Who supports us other than our fellow mongers? Besides, if he were a true conservative, he'd be jumping on us with both feet in combat boots. There would be 24 hour patrols watching every inch of Manheim, the motels that are used for this kind of stuff, and the use of cattle prods on anyone caught doing it. No, he's just an idiot with an axe to grind that wants to woo voters. I just think everyone here needs to remember why we are here. There are plenty of other sites for those that want to argue politics. Yes, I know what the name of this page is.

I agree really with everything everyone here has said in regard to thomas. My main point was hi-jacked words. And yes thomas is always interested in saying and doing the right things for votes. Like they all are. I only look at what people do these days, not what they say. That includes politicians which I refer to as show business for ugly people!

Travel Destinations
Read somewhere ORD is the most connected airport in the world. Anyone have suggestions for travelling to hobby? I'm looking at a 2-3 day getaway, so international is out. But any cities with a better scene and value for fun? Heard good stuff about Toronto, but something warmer would be nice.

2-3 Day Trip
[QUOTE=Ixmeofne;6288911]Read somewhere ORD is the most connected airport in the world. Anyone have suggestions for travelling to hobby? I'm looking at a 2-3 day getaway, so international is out.

Toronto.
Quebec is underrated for massage parlors.
If you are traveling with a buddy.
Tijuana is great. Stick with the heavily populated areas such as Hong Kong. You can meet some good talent over the course of 48 hours.

Tampa, Orlando, Dallas have been good in the past. Been a while don't know if it's changed at all but they blew Chicago away.

Las Vegas?

Last time I was there, I stayed in a super cheap off strip hotel. Not ideal for hosting a porn star but I assume deals can be had if you travel midweek. And the weather will be way better than the midwest.

Other cities

In Miami and LA, you won't have to pay for much more than drinks if you're decent looking.
