DarkSteven -> craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 7:47:30 AM)

craigslist recently shut down its Adult sections based on a report, that turns out to be completely fabricated: http://www.westword.com/2011-03-24/news/women-s-funding-network-sex-trafficking-study-is-junk-science/




Hillwilliam -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 7:50:46 AM)

Another reason they shut it down is that a few of the (of age) escorts were turning up dead.

Craigslist sting: Men with Skittles, condoms accused of child-sex attempts

Think this may have something to do with it as well, DS?




flcouple2009 -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 8:40:06 AM)

In truth I am guessing there were as many under age hookers on Craigslist as there were undercover vice setting up stings.  That would have put the numbers fairly high.

A number of years back there was a teenage prostitution ring busted at a high school here in Florida.  The girls would skip class to go and make their cash.  Of course the clients were all middle aged men. 

Still I can't agree with lying and misrepresenting facts no matter how "good" your cause may be.

So now that this report is out are they going to re-open its adult section?

Why...did you lose all of your contact numbers ?

(just kidding here)

I can only interpret this in such a way of attempting to put Myself in the same position.

Had I been the owner of the site and believed there was a study done that could prove harm was coming to minors through it's use, I'd have ripped that shit down so fast that the circuits would have thrown sparks.  No, I probably wouldn't have verified the facts first.  I could always put it back up if it turned out that it wasn't true.  That might have pissed some folks off, but I'd sleep better at night.




popeye1250 -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 11:14:13 AM)

Why can't they just have a "clearinghouse" where the ladies are "certified" as being of legal age and disease free?
That would solve a lot of problems.




flcouple2009 -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 12:08:08 PM)

Hmmmm a clearinghouse for an illegal activity.

Yeah I can see the "girls" jumping all over that one.

Laughs.
In corporate America, image almost always trumps fact when it comes to public perception.

Newsflash my well informed friend...other than certain areas of Nevada.....prostitution is fucking illegal.
Hence no certification (lol,are you supposed to be on meds or something)is available....You stick your little wickipoo in there you takes your chances....One of them being winding up on a Sex offenders list ala Lawrence Taylor.

Conservative Mike, "prostitution" is illegal, checking someone out for diseases and looking at their birth certificates is *not* illegal.
(Well, unless you're the President.)




slvemike4u -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 12:31:45 PM)

Correct(expect for the conservative part),now explain how and under what authority this supposed "clearinghouse" of yours would be set up.What with you knowing this is an illegal activity and as such any endeavor set up to facilitate such illegal activities would in fact be illegal.




JohnWarren -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 12:36:05 PM)

Not a new story... "Our goal is noble so please don't look at our methods too closely.

Or in other words "It's a con job."

And the Police Officers would be making arrests for what exactly? "Your honor this woman had a copy of her BIRTH CERTIFICATE on her person!"

Judge; "That's more than I can say for President Obama!")




slvemike4u -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 12:41:58 PM)

No,no,no you don't get to do that....you suggested a "clearinghouse" to certify age and health.....that is the subject at hand,not individual pros carrying around birth certificates.
Sounding an awful lot like your sane friend lately .Given his lack of credibility you just might want to rethink that.

"Your honor, we arrested this woman *before* she engaged in an act of prostitution because,.....well,..... we felt like it!" "And we felt that she might engage in an act of prostitution..... at a later date!"
"So,.....we're charging her with,....."prostitution."

"And next week we're going to charge someone with.....burglery.....because they looked at a house.




slvemike4u -> RE: craigslist underage prostitution study (3/27/2011 12:58:02 PM)

No response necessary ,seems you have jumped the rails into nonsensical ....I will leave you alone ,continue to play with yourself to your hearts content

You know, I travel to both New York and North Carolina for work. I can find you and hurt you. And not in a happy fun way.


To me it just seemed like a missing part of the story. Study A found this so we took Action B.

Study A is false. Should we reverse Action B?

I have never been to craigslist. My understanding is that you can end up with viruses and spam bots pretty easy.
