Police Crack Down on Craigslist Sex Industry

Lori Lamb: Why do you think prostitutes and their customers should be locked up? If you don't like dealing with those people, you surely don't have to. But why should a society punish a person with a service to sell or a person who wants to pay for it in a private transaction? And if your only objection is that a law is being broken, it's not like all laws are fair or just. Bad laws need to be changed ... it used to be legal to hit women or two own slaves.

Lori Lamb: How is it your business what these mature adults do with their lives? What they do doesn't affect you so you shoul F-CK off you loser

Move to Nevada... prostitution is legal there!!

Prostitution should be legal. It cannot be prevented. The government should make laws requiring safe sex and monitoring for STDs and AIDS.At least that will protect the innocent wives who get the illnesses but have none of the fun This industry should also be taxed BIG TIME.

REMEMBER DEOMOCRACY?

KINDA NICE, WASN'T IT?

Should law enforcement be wasting their time chasing consenting adults? Probably not, the issue is when those adults may be linked to human trafficing, drugs and racketeering. Truth to tell most "providers" probably don't want to legalize it either as they would then have to get a license, pay taxes and all the rest. The scary part is that the "providers" and their "clients" by playing opposite the law leave themselves very vulnerable to other people seeking to take advantage of them. If an escort is beeten up what is she going to tell the police and will they really be concerned, probably not. If a client gets robbed or worse he doesn't really have any place to turn either. The bottom line is that it is very hard to enforce "morality" laws. Does anyone remember prohibition, basically one group should never be able to force their values on another by writing it into law.

Ok .. so I take a woman out to eat, then to the movies, then for a night cap ....hopefull it would end up back at my place for a little one on one action and of course i paid for the whole night....WHAT the hell is the differance. At least if i give a woman 50 bucks and i get some we are both happy ...rather than paying for all that crap just to end up with my cok in my hand ......

I'm glad that the people that frequent these sites and any other establishments that have this kind of entertainment have a place to go. Better that they have an out let then be preying on someones child on the street or someones wife in a mall parking lot.

They aren't paying for the sex. They are paying for her to go home afterward. Otherwise it's just a date.

down here in daytona beach they arrested 7 hookers off craigs list..one hooker showed up with her husband and kids in the car..mommy turns tricks while they wait in the car..good role model huh..they watched mommy hauled off to jail..whats this world coming too..billary clinton trying to become president these are the people voting for her..

Vote Libertarian and this type of nonsense wouldn't exist.

To the government I say "Stay out of my bedroom, my boardroom and my bloodstream".

My guess is it's ok for the government to break laws that we are to follow. Use to be a law against ENTRAPMENT! To catch killers...hardcore criminals I could understand. We are still free to an extent...as long as the government and all our neighbors feel that what we are doing is ok.

a quick fix would be to get rid of the "erotic" and "adult" sections. obviously craigslist isn't trying too hard to address the problem.

OOOHHH...THE COPS BUSTED "JOHNS"!!!! WOW, I'M IMPRESSED. I WISH I COULD MOVE TO EUROPE, WHERE SEX FOR 'SALE' AND MARIJUANA USE IS OK. LAND OF THE FREE HUH? OVER 1 MILLION IN JAIL OR PRISON FOR NON VIOLENT POT SMOKING OR A LITTLE CARNAL PLEASURE. LEAVE PRISON FOR VIOLENT SCUM.

What a waste of tax dollars for the cops to spend their time and resources busting consenting adults for sex--even if it is for pay!

Prostitution is reportedly the 'oldest business'
in the world. As long as there are live human beings there will always be adults who seek sex for pay. In my opinion, what an individual does in private is nobody else's business. Police should have NO authority to invade a private,
personal meeting ! ! ! ! !
THE JUDGE...

PROSTITUTION SHOULD BECOME LEGAL-ITS A CONSENT SEX BETWEEN 2 ADULTS , IN LAS VEGAS THEY HAVE TO SUBMIT TO HIV TESTS AND AND SOME PARTS IN EUROPE TOO! In the Netherland the crime rate is very low compare to U.S.A AND PROSTITUTION IS LEGAL-THE PROSTITUTES. COPS SHOULD FOCUS ON MURDERS, KIDNAPPING , CHILD PREDATORS.SEX IS SEX ITS PLEASURE. BUT IF IT BECOMES LEGAL I AM FOR SAFE SEX AND ADVOCATE TO HIV AND OTHER VENERIAL DESEASES AND USE OF CONDOMS BY JOHNS AND ALL UNDER THE LAW AND SIGN IN AGREEMENTS-PARALEGAL STUDENT-RICH SANTAN
AND BY THE WAY I HAVE A SUGAR DADDY 4 MILLION DOLLARS ASETT GENTLEMEN AND TREATS ME VERY VERY ELL- A PROUD MALE PROSTITUTE THAT IS STUDYING PARALEGAL TO WORK FOR A CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER-MY GOAL! PLEASE HAVE SAFE SEX AND USE CONDOMS!!

GOOD! It's about time these whores were taken off the streets and off line. Since when is it okay to offer sex for "250 Roses" and the cops don't take that as selling your ass? Roses my sweet white heiney! These broads need to be locked up and so do the fools who buy their services.

I think its disgusting that the states and federal goverment would waste taxe dollars on this! We are fightting two wars right now and this is there main concern? And i would bet these crooekd politicans are the biggest users of craigslist erotic services section. Hypocrisy at its best my fellow americans
