The same liberals who champion defunding police, legalizing pot, and legalizing sports gambling somehow draw the line at prostitution.

To quote Carlin.
Sex is legal, selling is legal. Why isnt selling sex legal?

I never understood why prostitution has been illegal in the first place. We are sexual beings and some of us aren't studly or macho enough to easily get laid for free. Maybe some guys can, but some of us such as myself have a hard time. And let's face, it's not as simple as walking up to a girl and randomly asking for sex. That's an easy way to get slapped in the face. So why aren't we allowed to pay for it if it's something we really want?

Legal hooaahs, legal drugs and get out of jail cards for most crimes. Minorities are loving this new version of NYC.

Drugs and letting out criminals from jail are harmful to people. Prostitution on the other hand is just harmless fun!

Well, I guess the one thing it does harm for me is my savings.

I have not heard the word hooah used since the 80s. That was a surprise to see written on this 3rd day of 2023!
Oh It's been in use since then... But then again what one hears depends hugely upon accent I suppose.

"Whowa"

"Hooah"

"Hoo-uh"

Honestly it's disgusting how many Asian "spas" there are. You know what they really are, and it ain't a reputable spa. They're popping up everywhere.

Unreal. I hate it. Have any exact locations so I can go be angry at them in person?

The article is comparing decriminalization of weed to decriminalization of prostitution. ?? Kind of a stretch I think.
There would still be prostitution even without Johns. Not that arresting Johns is going to eliminate them to begin with. But the eradication of a vice really isn't the reason behind enforcement, IMO.
