I can't wait until all of the unhealthy things are illegal.

How does making any of it legal change anything? There are legal brothels 40 minutes away from Vegas and this place has far more sex scams than any city in America.

There are a lot of laws that are in place for our safety. Those laws are no different.

We could get way off topic here. That would be a tragedy I know.

I am all for laws that protect us from others hurting us against our will or discretion. Speeding, reckless driving. Obviously violence. Theft. The basics.

I don't think that protection needs to be extended to things we might do to hurt ourselves.

How many sex scams in the towns with legal brothels? How many in Vegas? You make it sound like a 40 minute drive is viable to the average tourist in Vegas.

The problem is that a lot of crimes follow prostitution.

As far as drugs go, imagine the litigation that follows legalizing them. If you think people will sue for spilling a hot coffee on their lap, wait until the first person OD's.

F0cker, do you believe sports gambling should be illegal in the US as it is outside of Vegas?

I'd be interested in you juxtaposing that "crime" with prostitution or drugs.

Are you really trying to compare crimes in Pahrump to Vegas?

Most limo drivers will take you there and back for free since they get a kickback from the brothel.

The difference is that you're going to pay at least $1k in a brothel for anything worth your time. Most people don't want to spend that much time or money to go there.

 

[Jello]

And don't tell me that other crimes don't follow gambling, please.

Just wait until the first person get's lung cancer from smoking cigarettes. That's gonna be a litigious mess.

There's quite a difference there. Gambling is already legal in our society. If Joe Blow wants to go throw his paycheck into a slot machine, he can.

 

[Jello]

But Joe Blow can't waste that money on a hooker or blow??

Wow. You're full of non sequiturs tonight.

Yes. Autopsies cannot confirm OD'ing as a cause of death.

By the way, prostitution is just as legal as sports gambling in our "society" Remember the brothels you were just talking about?

I did specify SPORTS gambling for a reason.

 

[roguejuror]

I hope sports gambling stays illegal in the US

 

[MonkeyF0cker]

But Joe Blow can't waste that money on a hooker or blow??

What benefit does legalizing them provide? Does the crime magically go away? Or does it simply become more pervasive in our society? And how willing do you think the public is going to be to gamble on that prospective?

Misread.

 

[Jello]

This isn't about legalizing anything. Its about hypocrisy.

I mean this in the nicest way possible tho. Seriously. I'm enjoying the respectful debate with you.

 

[MonkeyF0cker]

You specified sports gambling. But it's not equivalent. Parts of prostitution aren't legal. Parts of gambling are.

Blowjobs for money aren't legal. Slot machines, blackjack, craps, etc., etc., etc. are.

 

[roguejuror]

Misread.

Unacceptable for MF v4.0
