This guy got drunk at a strip bar, hit his head on a rock when he fell, then said one of us braddahs robbed him. This story belongs in the strip club report. If he really wanted action he should have gone Empire.

I find it strange that people still take these reports about "sex trafficking" seriously after so many of them have been debunked.

I'd also like a real study done on sex workers and how many if them do it out of their own free will. I suspect that most women these days don't have a pimp because of the ease of finding their own clients on the Internet. But hey, it's not like anyone does their own thinking anymore.

But then again, what would these anti-prostitution crusaders do with all that time? There's grant money in being a captain save-a-ho, after all.

On the other hand, it's tough being a cop in the District of Columbia. They have to make themself look good because they have no respect from the community. Just my two cents.

Lawmakers on the task force also hope to push through a bill that cracks down on cybertrafficking by banning nude images in online advertisements. The bill bans the use of nude images in advertisements for high-risk sex trafficking industries such as massage parlors, relaxation parlors and escort services. ".

The second part is starting to sound like internet censorship. They could make a case for random banner ads claiming to protect the underage. But to ban images in all online advertisements may be reaching too far with the whole net neutrality movement.

With all the murders, robberies, burglaries, aggravated assaults and other serious felony crimes occurring in the District of Columbia, the police have nothing more important to do? This guy isn't a danger to anyone: the police released him the same day and his court appearance isn't until next month. Yet, CBS Sports has suspended him indefinitely, and announced that he won't be working for CBS Sports for at least the remainder of this basketball season. If he had spent the same amount of money on wining and dining some bimbo and then they had consensual sex, it would have been considered a private matter. However, agree to pay that money directly as a business transaction and you're arrested, charged with a crime, publicly shamed nationwide, and suspended from your job, even though the alleged conduct had no connection to your ability to analyze basketball games. From my perspective, it's idiotic.

That's what I say.

Here, they try so hard to pick on decent working people who aren't buckled-in or don't come to a complete stop at a stop sign. An acquaintance's home was burglarized and the cops arrived in time to foil it thanks to a call from an observant neighbor. The cops had no clue how to handle the 2 thieves, who 'ran circles around them' and got away, probably by virtue of their superior street-smarts and physical condition.

We mongers are only trying to satisfy a base need; we don't attack anyone or steal.

The part about advertising on the net specifically bans nude pics. If everyone posted nice clean pics like Empire, then no problem.

Then there's the part about landlords knowingly allowing prostitution on their premises. Key word here is knowingly. The worst that can happen is the AMPs will move into places owned by the mafia.

Anyway, prostitution is already illegal but we get away with it. The worst that can happen is that protection will become more expensive and drive up the price of admission.

The trend lately in writing laws is that they make them so ridiculous that they are difficult to enforce anyway.

I'm not going to worry about it.

Monger on!

They don't allow nudity anyway (at least not in Hawaii I see it in other places like Vegas routinely).

Highlights include bills aimed at 'johns' and targeting places that 'promote prostitution' such as massage parlors.
