Well, when you put it THAT way, it kinda looses it's appeal, don't it?




I had intended to chime in much earlier, but I'm kinda lazy, so I dint. Nyaah!

NEway, of your original points, I only have legitimate opinions on two of them. Guns and ****** (HEY! I've been LOOKING for a name for a rock band...).

On the gun thing. I agree that having an armed-to-the-teeth populace will certainly discourage opportunistic crimes (those that work in and around understand what I'm sayin), I think there will also be an increase (from a currently statistically negligable percentage) in the amount of domestic gunplay. You know, husband comes home after a night of enjoying some legal prostitution, and gets BLOWN away by an angry wife before he gets a chance to lie... Oops, meant "explain" why he was out so late. Or, say a neighbor takes umbrage with how loud you're playing that 1968 Strat through your vintage Mesa-Boogie amp and peeks over teh fence and puts a few rounds through your very expensive vacuum tubes? Of course you're gonna send his @$$ back inside with a couple rounds from your "Tina," right? I know *I* would. How about something from MY past? SOmething that ACTUALLY happened? A (then) close friend of mine had some grief with a few bullies from a neighboring school. Well, a couple of us did, actually, but they decided to divide and conquer. They picked on teh RONG guy, first. By partner (we'll call him Bernie) was at the Homecomming football game (I was banned, that year, but I'm not sayin why...) when 4-5 of them jumped him and sent him running... HOME, to get his Daddy's camper, and a couple of his Daddy's rifles. He made it back to the game in time for half time. Chased the band off the filed with the camper (16-footer, on a Dodge chassis, FWIW), and basically held teh stands hostage until the Po-Po sorrunded and disarmed him.

Before I go any further, let me state, OUT LOUD, that for ME, gun control means hitting your target with EACH AND EVERY ROUND!!!

But, I know that, as a whole, sociecity is not responsible enough to be given carte blanc access to guns. Ther DO have to be some restrictions (convicted felons, for one, SHOULDN'T be allowed to own firearms legally, IMO). Firearms safety, and safe practices would have to be MANDATORY for such a society to be kept from self-imolation. With mandatory scholing comes standards and regulation. Enforcment costs $$$ too. Bottom line, in a small town, yeah, I can see where it'd more easily be put into action. In a small city, let alone a moderately-sized, or even a LARGE one, I can't see anything but badness coming from such a broad-reaching policy. It lacks the practical controls necessary for it to be applicable to dense populations. I mean, honestly, SS, if you think about it you'd see what I'm alluding to. I see your point, and I'm not saying it's outlandish or anything. I'm just saying I wouldn't wanna get caught in the crossfire between a seven-year-old, and their Grandmother, across the street, just because the old bitty wudn't spring for a new Barbie outfit for the brats birthday.

Now, on to the Hoes...

In countries where it's regulated there STILL exists unregulated prostitution by women who don't wanna report their coochie-tax. You will NEVER eliminate THAT, totally. All regulation does, effectively, is provide someplace for honest people to get a state-approved piece. Well, that, and provide medical and health inspections to the legal working girls. Which is good. But that tends to only be in large cities. Suburban and rural hookers will continue as they have, for millennia. As our populations shift, globally, from rural to urban, their will be more and more call and need for those working in teh cities, and so regulations will protect am ever growing segment of society, which is good, right? But, what about the homely farm-girls? Who's going to provide THEM with medical coverage (and dental when they country-***'d pimps/uncles knock they teefusses out)?

Now, understand, I don't stand against either point. Just bringing up the fact that, as with ALL initial plans, some more thought needs to be applied to each of these before they'll be economically viable...

You may now return to your regularly scheduled surfing, already in progress...

 

I see the overpowering sensation as part of the anger type of rape. Anger, control, anything where the act is less about the actual sex, and more about hurting someone or controling someone fit the same bill to me. And no, I doubt that prostitutes would alleviate that aspect of it either. But I do think that it would help with those rapes that happen solely because the guy thinks he can't get laid any other way. And I'm the type who would make a horribly politician, because I would spent the entire year's budget, and millions of man hours, and if I knew that it stopped even ONE, I would feel good about it.


You haven't met many Vegas girls. Many of them are so dirty that you have no reason to think that they didn't get banged right before you met them, even if they're not hookers...

I'm not lacking it yet really. No one besides me notices, and people that I point it out to think I'm nuts, but I know it's inevitable. My mom's dad is quite the cueball, but he's also the old Irish gent type, and for some reason, Europeans carry baldness much better than most Americans. You've seen pics of me, so you know it's not a real problem yet, but it's still on my mind a lot lately.

 

Eyes first huh? Super, I like the hell out of my eyes, and most girls I meet say something about them in the first ten minutes. I have no personality or sense of humor, as people here can plainly see, but I've got some serious third to make up for that....

 

Grosse Point Blank rox my sox off. John Cusack and his sister Joan, are hilarious in this movie. The Whone Nine Yards is great too, although, Amanda Peet's nude scene does help it out a lot. I never thought Matthew Perry could actually be funny,

 

The Whole Nine Yards was only a so-so movie, for me. Anybody beside ME ever se Radioland Murders? Now THAT'S a FUNNY flik[sm=icon_rofl.gif]

 

I think the professional is a GREAT hit man movie.

 

True, I don't think that guns should be available to EVERYONE, and especially not required to be had. The reason I brought up Kennesaw is to show what happens to a population where criminals know for a fact that there is likely to be a gun in every home they try to invade, and show that in contrast to England, where criminals know with reasonable certainty that there is NOT a gun in the home. Crime is neraly non-existant in one, and rampant in the other.

Now when you make it harder to get guns and harder to use them defensively, criminals know that their odds are better. If you're going to break into a home, are you more likely to go to the city with one gun in every three homes or the city with one gun in every 100 homes?

Yes, street-walking is still present even where it is legal, but not prevalent. Many people utilize street hoes because they are all that's available, and hookers are street hoes because it's the only possible way to do it most of the time. So if you take away the neccessity to do it that way, you will reduce it's occurance. As a John, if you can go to a safe legal house or prostitution for $100 or a street-walker for $50 where you might get jacked, get STDs, or get arrested, what are you going to do? 9 out of 10 are going to use the safe and sane method. So when available Johns are reduced for street-walkers, what are tey going to do? They're going to think more about getting hooked up (pun intended) with a legal brothel, becauase paying coochie-tax on ten guys is going to make you a lot more than not paying tax on ONE guy. Just the law of volume, Wal-Mart has huge overhead, and they sell their items for less, but they make billions just because they sell so many while a small, local store charges way more, and still doesn't make an inkling of what Wal-Mart can. Same goes for hookers, getting $120 each after coochie-tax from ten guys is way better than getting $150 no-tax from one guy.

Bottom line, you're right, legalized prostitution won't stop illegal manners of it still roaming. But neither will anything else. Legalizing it is the only thing that will greatly reduce them number of illegals though, and do so while making more money for the city and state and making things easier and safer on those who want to work in the industry and those who wish to partake of it. The only reason to be opposed to it is morality, but morality shouldn't be legislated. If something is between two people and doesn't hurt anyone involved, what's amoral to you may not be amoral to everyone else, so why should you force your morals on others?

 

Well, rilly, I cudda just said "I agree with 'ol what's-his-name, meaning you, but I wanted to pretend like I put some thought into my answers You have any idea how HARD it is to argue the SAME SIDE of a point that someone else has stated, that you already agree with? And sound semi-intelligent doing it? I think I hurt myself pullin that off, I'll have you know

 

I just read everything from everyone in this post....Jesus feckin Christ!

It's so obvious SilverSeven has done his homework, I have not; not really, comparitively. Well said Silver, and thanks for doing my homework for me...your hired.

I'm a proponant of people having guns...people in charge, educated, trained etc...I might even start to respect cops again if guns were legal and cops focused on criminals and not traffic offenders, prostitutes and pot smokers.

Which brings us to drugs. Drugs are good. If you overdose, it's called natural selection dumbass. Hookers are good too, and a repectible profession.

I started thinning BAD by the age of 27. I first trimmed it down to a buzz for a year or two and finally went with the bald.

My experiece is that most women, at least the ones I'm interested in, LOVE the bald head.


There's nothing wrong with a good clean hooker, as long as she's clean....they do shower you feckin idiots...at what point does a women become clean, how many days? Unless your wife/girlfriend was a virgin, she was with someone before you...deal with it, just like you were with someone before her.

I hate the always right, far right christian judgmental ***** trying to tell me how to live...terrorism and dictatorship needs to be addressed here first.

 

Now why would it be okay for people to point out what laws should be passed but when others don’t agree they are trying to push their own views on the rest of the world? And the whole bashing Christians when someone is opposed to a point of view is really getting old. For one, I’m not a Christian.
I look at it from a different side, I’m sure no one wants to think of their sister or daughter letting the fat f*ck down the street rubbing up on her. I love sex, but I’d have to be completely empty inside to climb up and ride some old a** ugly mf. Where you want to stick your d*ck is of no concern to me. Its just not for me, maybe I’d feel different if I had to pay for sex. I don’t know if it is my morals (yes I know that is a bad word) because its not like I’m a good little girl or just a lack of understanding of how the whole prostitute cleaning process works. I doubt comparing the cleanliness of a non-virgin to a prostitute is very accurate.
