Not only that, you go through the "fruit stand" when you LEAVE Nevada. Not when you travel to it.

You don't think that patterns form? It's almost too many people for most of them to fall into specific categories.

So, do yourself a favor and remove your hand from your lap, wipe your keyboard off and add your current garments to your laundry.
And if Tijuana hadn't stupidly banned gambling in the 1930's, Tijuana would have rivaled Las Vegas for gamblers. Those Indian casino's in San Diego wouldn't even exist today! And a far better year round climate than Las Vegas.

There are brothels galore in both Reno and Las Vegas.

Brothels:? No. Very few and not long lasting. Often disguised as massage parlors.

Prostitution. Tons. Normally "Escort" services. Come to your room or wherever.

Couple of years ago I was sitting at a video poker machine in a major casino waiting for the various sets of family to congeal on me. Got hit on by at least a 9 who wanted to know if I wanted a good time. I was pleased she thought I could.

Recall, a couple years back, some nurse was here as a tourist, she was at the elevator banks waiting for a friend to come down, and, you know how some women tourists dress in this city, like Hookers, she was mistaken for a Hooker by the Vice Squad who prowls the Strip look for Hookers, she was detained for 2 hours, and she filed a lawsuit against Metro. She had to come back for 3 trials, and she won an $80k settlement.

Welcome to Sinless City!

I was a driver for twenty plus years, it was my business to know such things. Because YOU don't know of them doesn't mean they aren't here.

Libertarians always want everything for free and want to drop age of consent laws down to something that you'd see in the Middle East. Stupid immature ideology.

These are the same people that are telling blue voters "stop moving to Nevada! you're bringing your city slicker problems here!" because they've enjoyed ridiculous representation in the senate and electoral system.
LOL now you’ve done it. I’d put a wall up here just to keep people who think like that back in Mexico and see how good you’ve had it. This is nonsense. Do you see ONE square inch of land on earth other than the poles that wasn’t “held” by someone else? I’ll wait for your logical answers.

And that’s the nanny state. Global trade has brought invasive species as well as unchecked immigration (which largely evades the systems in place to protect our agricultural and natural resources) but it’s all about ‘feels’ not security.
