Why Do We Throw Prostitutes in Prison?

106. I did address those points, you just did not like my responses

First, Nevada. In the major cities PROSTITUTION IS ILLEGAL, it is only in the rural desert communities that it is legal, and most of the time their neighbors is a Air Force Bombing Range or an Atomic Bomb Testing Range.

As to California and Marijuana, the problem does NOT appear to be the Feds:

California Supreme Court permits Riverside to ban marijuana stores through the use of Zoning:

LA will reduce the number of Cannabis stores:

The problem with legalization is where will it be legal? In Las Vegas prostitutes are in the hotels, but prostitution is also illegal for the Hotel do NOT want them to be to open about it and thus are the biggest advocates to keep Prostitution ILLEGAL in Las Vegas (This way if a prostitute is to overt, the hotel can have them removed by the Police, part of the Police regulation of Prostitution in Las Vegas).

As to your statement about Industrial areas, the prostitutes do NOT want that area for most workers after work want to go home. It is NOT a place people go to party. Most are isolated away from Commercial areas or residential areas, thus no way to draw in clients. In the older cities of the Mid West and North East, most industrial areas are next to residential areas (in the days before cars you walked to work). In many ways that remain the norm, and no one wants a house of prostitution in their residential neighborhood. I use to live in an "Industrial Slum" and the people who live they do NOT want prostitutes in their community. It may be poor, but they want their community to be a middle class as they can make it.

Sorry, the problem is WHERE these prostitutes will be able to do their business, and right now no one wants them in their community. They are NOT wanted in Residential Communities, Commercial Communities or areas of heavy industry. They would be more tolerated in rural areas, but most "customers" will NOT want to travel that far (Through most of the "Gentlemen's Clubs" I know of are in the rural outskirts of major cities). Sorry, look at where you live, where would one be permitted? The "Gentleman's Clubs" have a hard time getting Zoned or other wise permitted to open, actual house of prostitution? That would be an even harder sell.
