The most recent bust brings prostitution arrests in Moon up to 57 this year, Chief McCarthy said.

Now admittedly some of this is just outrageously silly prosecutorial gamesmanship: I haven't tracked down the relevant statute, but I'm willing to bet a dollar to a donut that the legislative intent was against blackjacks and lockpicks as "instruments of crime", not KY Jelly and buttplugs.

Nonetheless it would appear that, in the same way that poverty is moving outward into the 'burbs (cf. recent threads and news items re: Penn Hills), Moon is fast becoming the regional reigning champ of the suburban sex trade.

I do think Mayor Opie needs to confront this issue. Pittsburgh, as the region's core, is in serious danger of allowing a major industry to slip away by default. Maybe we need to bring back the adult theatres on Liberty? Or perhaps as a compliment to the "Redd-Up" campaign, we might have a "Sex-Up Pittsburgh" effort?

Yeah, you got to check out the pics on WTAE. Real sexy ha ha! (puke)

And it also seems like a few of the boys involved want to be "daddies little girl" instead of real men.

Don't let anyone fool you. Prostitution still is alive and well everyday in Pittsburgh City clubs, hotels, motels, even the streets!
Luckily 90% of those conducting business are still real women, the remainder are Trannies.

I'm confident that prostitution in Moon will soon be eliminated with a few more of these busts. I hear they are also winning the War on Drugs.

New red light district? This isn't new!

Moon has always had prostitutes. Lots of them. It's been like that for decades and decades. Maybe the only thing different is that the police are busting them.

Abso-dang-lutely true. During the Whiskey Rebellion, most of them rebels skedadelled to Moon rather than face the Continentals under that Virginny squire. They perferred the company of them there hoors, which was much softer than baynets. Yessiree, Moon always did have kinda a reputation.

I was under the impression that Moon was a haven for prostitution because of its proximity to the airport. They probably make a killing off the number of lonely businessmen staying in the nearby hotels.
