When ever there are good looking hookers in Old Town, you can be sure that a sting is going down.
I used to work in a neighborhood that was so bad, we used to say “if the hookers are good-looking, they’re guys.”
Can the eps please clean up the riff raff and prostitution for good!? One sting is not enough and the people with babys in strollers in front of costco got to go too. The mission does have room, I know I almost had to stay there!
People live by the means they have available to them. If they never learned how to get and keep a job, a place to live, feed themselves nutritious food, etc. they will continue to do what they have learned.
Have a little compassion. People don’t do things because they want to. They do things because that’s all they have ever known. Educate people, give them the confidence to do something good for themselves, etc. It all starts in childhood. Don’t be mean to or neglect or ignore children. Try to be involved in their lives. Show them that they can and should love themselves.
This is a waste of time and money.
consensual sex between 2 people is NONE of the polices business.
