Is prostitution legal everywhere now? (1 Viewer)

[Jonesy77]

I've been frequenting Craigslist lately, looking mainly for guitars and/or playstations and/or straw hats, and I noticed a section for "erotic services". Now maybe I'm completely misinterpreting what these services are, but they appear to be prostitution. Seems like if this was illegal, it would be pretty easy for the government to shut down as every ad has a phone number in it. Do they just not care enough? Or are these "services" something different?

Edit: oh, and don't open those ads up at work

Those are either stings or scams. The local news here seems to constantly be running undercover sting ops involving Craigslist.

The suck thing would be if your state's statutes make "Johns" a crime where you have to register as a sex offender. Prostitutes in Louisiana do register for "Crimes Against Nature" but I don't believe they necessarily force the 'clients' to also register (noticing neighbors et al). The stung could have some explaining to do.

a couple of my friends didn't realize there was anything else ON Craigslist.

When i told them you could buy used lawnmowers and Saints tickets there, it was like the Bee Girl finding the pasture.

Jonesy, have you checked out the Epiphone acoustic / electrics? They are really sweet, and not too pricy.

There are many illegal substances, products, and services available on the internets.

I saw those in Tampa area very plentiful adds. But they usually cover up by saying code as "Migrain Relief" 75$ half hour. Or "erotic message"150/hr incall or 200/hr outcall.
