[QUOTE=Francis123]I don't know the people you guys are talking about, but as a general rule I don't think you should be sticking your nose in by calling the police on people. If a girl is seriously hurt, offer to drive her to the emergency room. Otherwise, she can call the cops herself. Best to mind your business. In general, these girls are not the victims of these dudes that they're sometimes made out to be. They're taking advantage of, scamming, and PIMPING these dudes as much. Sometimes moreso. Than the other way around. And generally these girls don't view us as much more than "licks" that they think THEY ARE exploiting, so don't always believe all the nice things they say to you. If you really know this person and you're truly concerned, whatever, do what you have to do. But if that were the case, you'd have already acted, instead of posting about it on a message board. In general, I just would mind my own business and not get so emotionally involved, and not stick my nose in based on a bruise and a street girl's version of events. These girls can sometimes break your heart when you think the streets are too rough on them or when it seems they want off the streets. But the truth is that part of them LIKES the streets and all that comes with the streets as much as the drugs they take.[/QUOTE]For all the guys in love with Ashley.
That is a different perspective

I have to say, getting the pimps perspective is different. Please tell us how you came to these conclusions. I think about half of what you say is correct but the other half is complete BS especialy your last sentence. As far as acting, it is kind of hard for us to act giving the nature of what we are doing out there and having it come back to bite us in the ass. We are trying to do it in a fashion that will draw less attention to us personally while at the same time protecting our future interests. I really don't want to pick up a girl who had the shit kicked out of her. It kind of ruins the moment, you know? Also, when the girl had the shit kicked out of her, people think we did it and that also draws attention of LE towards us.
First and foremost, we have to keep ourselves safe from the pimps and the girls who will rip us off. One way to do that is to separate the pimp from the girl on the streets. I personally will not pick up a girl walking side by side with her pimp. I don't have four eyes and can't watch everything in every direction on the pick up. I also think it is better if we make the girls feel safe when they get in with us. It makes things less complicated. This is not about getting emotioanally involved. It's about making the experience safe and enjoyable for all.
