Default Re: House and Senate target prostitution and pimps and johns

First of all, I've always been of the opinion that prostitution should be legalized and regulated to assure that there are no underage prostitutes; the workers are protected from "slave owner" pimps; the workers can prosecute johns who abuse them just like any other woman abused by a man; they can get health benefits like any other employee; they pay taxes like any other employee.

Having said that, I'm glad they're going after the pimps.

I don't believe that some guy who wants a straight up transaction: he gives money, he gets a service, should be prosecuted. If he's abusive to the sex worker, nail his ass. But if he isn't, leave him the hell alone.
