It only makes sense. The police department will save $11 million a year on enforcement of a "crime" that they can't stop! Hey Washington, think about how much the taxpayers could save if y'all stop with the bullshit enforcement of similar "crimes" such as cultivating and smoking marijuana! Wake up, America!!

Hold on there, Slim! Don't blame Republicans for this. I happen to be Republican (well, in my state, I had to make a choice if I wanted to vote). I am unquestionably conservative but have no problem with prostitution specifically. My concern, as with many issues, is the degree to which government would be involved.
I mentioned my concersns earlier in this thread. If you wish to lay blame, look at some Democrats who oppose it because any two people can have sex and a tax can't be applied to it.

This way, we won't hear from these feminist Nazis who will forever demonize men. Without rape, they will have fewer things to complain about.
i disagree, many rapists are greatly turned on by the act of violence and forcing themselves on a woman against her will
it has nothing to do with not being capable of getting chicks

I am for the legalization of prostituion but I do not believe that it will help rape to become extinct in our society. Rape usually isn`t about sex, it`s about violence. It`s about control and humiliation --- about power over the specific victim. The majority of all rape cases are commited by people known to the victim (co-workers, friends, classmates, dates, relatives, neighbours), only 2% are commited by strangers. Potential rapists wouldn't have that same power over a prostitute.

I have to echo Hal in that rape is irrelevant to the issue of prostitution but that is just me being a feminist nazi.
I personally agree with any effort to legalize(not decriminalize,which makes it not a crime ,but still illegal) prostitution.I think it would certainly have the effect of driving it indoors,and i think the street walking form of prostitution is the more dangerous form so that would be positive.I would hope it would also result in more testing and safety measures in the industry

Mona has a valid point. I've never been to Amsterdam but, I have been to the Philipenes (where prostitution is legal) and the girls that work in the bars and are licensed had to get checked on a regular basis. The majority of guys on my ship that got a STD got it from a street walker.
No matter what, it's not gonna go away. (prostitution that is.)

Yes because if a woman has the right to abort her own baby, then a woman surely has the right to please a mans cock for a little bit of money. it's a victimless crime. so it shouldn't be a crime. if you don't want a prostitute, then don't pick one up. if you wanna suck some dirty street walker feet, then go pick one up.
i've been caught in a sting twice so i know what its like to do that shizzzz.. haven't done it in years but still.. it sucks.

police need to go after criminals that are actually a danger to society
not people just looking for a good time
