[QUOTE=Piks1;3672039]That story hit the news back in September 2016. Those women ran / managed or were mamasans. Almost in the blink of an eye they were all open for business. Just about 5 years before that, a woman lawyer and lady cop went out on a mission to eradicate all of these places. At that time there were about 50 Asian spa or massage businesses in operation and they were successful in shutting down about 30-35 but it didn't last. In no time at all things were back to normal.
So yes JTW, they get hassled from time to time just like anywhere else. I have heard that with all the money that goes through these places in Dallas (there are reports of AMPs paying $15 k per month for rent), local officials receive "donations" to look the other way which usually works until someone has to run for re-election or some loud-mouth crusader decides to make it an issue and won't let it go until someone takes action. But after the smoke clears it's always business as usual. At least that's how it seems to go.[/QUOTE]Business as usual LOL I like that. Yes the do-gooders and assholes will NEVER stop the world's oldest profession. NEVER. LOL.
