I mean, let’s be fair. In many other countries being rich means you never even get in trouble to begin with. You just pay some people off and everyone’s happy. [Reply]
Money has saved my ass more than a few times in my life.
Money can make DUI results suddenly invalid, how I don't know, but it does cost big bucks.
Without big bucks you get diversion, big fine, high insurance lots of traffic schools and yet after being a good boy the whole thing is forgotten to the public record but is always there in the justice systems records to be dug back out to harm you if you ever re-offend.
Pay the big bucks and never have it come back to haunt your EVER.
Getting a happy ending is not human trafficking, it's your girl friend is a thousand miles away, you have been tipping Scotch and watching 24YO's pushing their pussies right into your nostrils and at 80, you're horny as ****.
The police ****ed up when the warrant was applied for, issued, and a sting over reaching the warrant's purpose was used to catch a bunch of old ****s with enough money to fight back and now people are whining about how Kraft will not voluntarily plead guilty to what Juniper Fl courts claim as a sex crime but it is legal or ignored in the majority of all communities in the USA
This is how it went down in Jackson County.. Note the "disturbing the peace" convictions.
imagine having to suck that guy's disgusting old wrinkly penis for a living. I mean I had my share of experimenting during college days but jeez. [Reply]
Even if the video is suppressed, hasn't the NFL been embarrassed by it's existence enough to warrant some action? If Hill could be suspended (or worse) over a manipulated audio tape, it seems to me Kraft should face some punishment. Are there different rules for billionaire owners and paltry millionaire players? Asking for a friend. [Reply]

As long as it's voluntary on the hooker's part and the industry is regulated and taxed, groovy. The problem is most of it isn't voluntary and the industry isn't taxed or regulated, save a few counties in Nevada. [Reply]

Usually massage parlors are human trafficking, human trafficking period is huge in this country. [Reply]

If he gets off Scott free from the league the players union should step up on Hill and other players punishments. [Reply]

Yep. Hopefully one day the rest of the country will do what those counties in Nevada did because you'd rather have that then shit like backpage.com [Reply]

Yeah. I think the notion that a woman can't sell sex is outdated. It's from a time where she could get pregnant and then all of a sudden you've got a bunch of fatherless kids running around.
These days she can prevent pregnancy (for the most part). So then why not let her make money using all of the (ahem) tools at her disposal if she wants to do so? The world has changed a lot since the conditions that led prostitution to be banned. You've still got STDs to worry about, but you can lower that risk significantly these days, too.
Trafficking is a whole different thing. Obviously that needs to be stopped. The question, then, is whether legal prostitution will increase or decrease trafficking. In the long run, I think it would decrease it. The challenge is that it might increase it in the short run if the legalization is done piecemeal, and that would be unpalatable for the elected officials who initially pass legalization.
All in all, I think it's just plain weird that prostitution is illegal. I don't see a justification for it, other than "women shouldn't have sex". [Reply]

Welcome to our judeo-christian, overly paternalistic, morality-based laws which has all sorts of oddities to it.
Remember that it was about 50 years ago that the Supreme Court had to rule that people had a constitutional right to buy a fucking condom (or other birth control methods).
And not in some archconservative state either. In freaking Connecticut! [Reply]
