I'd must be Government Issued.
The I'd must be government issued per statute. Oh by the way, you see the cameras in front of every single massage place? You ever heard of facial recognition? Really you honestly think you're a mystery? And the hotels? Same thing. And you don't think they turn over these videos, or they can't get warrants from them? Really? You don't think they can put an unmarked car near one of these places? Webcams on adjoining buildings.
Guys, look the police aren't stupid. They know about every massage parlor, every aromatherapy shop, they know the names and locations of every single girl who works on escort alligator and in the hotels. I spoke recently with a long time sheriff. He said "there's no victim, these are two consenting parties. " and this simply isn't a priority to them. If the state or local government wants to shut any of these places down, they'll simply use confidential informants. They send someone in trouble with the law, offer them immunity, give them cash, and send them in. These guys can get naked, touch the girls whatever. Oh at this whole donation bs, yeah right!
My advice to all of you: Don't give the police a reason to make you a priority or a problem. Show up sober, no drugs don't get rough with the girls or rip them off. When the politicians and the the's office decide to make an example, they're going to do it. Your I'd and paperwork in the place isn't going to mean a thing. Oh and any idea that the cops can't go into the massage places without a warrant, guess what, they can anytime. It's a closely regulated industry. I didn't speak with my attorney concerning aromatherapy. By the way I don't care if the cops promise you the moon, assert directly your right to remain silent and call out the 5th amendment when you do it and immediately demand you speak to an attorney before answering any questions. Period.
[QUOTE=CuriousTourist;7005612]This happened in a different city in Florida, but I'm sharing this on multiple forums in case it is of interest or assistance.
I went to one of my favorite parlors, and for the first time I was given the sign in sheet where I had to provide name, address, etc etc etc. The mamasan said that she thought they were ALSO going to need to be checking IDs soon (I'm guessing especially as the elections come near, and probably in the months after, at least). She said they may even need to make a copy of it, to prove they checked and that the info they recorded matches the IDs.
This got me thinking, so I reached out to a buddy of mine up in New England. He has a business that prints I'd cards for businesses. I asked him if he ever does fake IDs. Now, I'm clearly no where near the drinking age, so he asked me why the hell I'd want a fake I'd? I told him that they had just put this stupid law in place down here that if you go to get a massage, they're supposed to get a copy of your I'd. With all the identity theft going on, I don't like the idea of giving any random people a copy of my info. I also said it sounds like they're going to be copying it soon, and that just makes me nervous to have a copy of my actual I'd being kept at one of these places..[/QUOTE]
Alot of closed permanently
[QUOTE=SenecaCuck;7009832]Have you noticed many AMPs are closing on Sundays or at least decreasing their hours??[/QUOTE]I've noticed a large number in Tampa and a few in Pinellas that have closed permanently or closed for renovations. I think some are waiting to see how the law pans out. Out of state license holders probably decided it's not worth the risk to get a professional violation too.
Lily spa (former Body Temple) appears to be renovating. One thing in the new law is no dark tint in massage vestibules. It appears they have removed the limo tint and now have clear windows and and a somewhat legit looking lobbing.
All this will probably push more shops to go locked door and appointment only.
Who's closed Sunday?
