    I lost all respect for CL over this issue. It's openly, blatantly hookers. (Yeah, I checked it on several sites in my state). Hookers for money. You can't sell firearms but prostitution is A-OK. #thomasdart

    Given that an estimated 5% of Craigslist postings are for sex services, but between 10-20% of Google searches are for porn, wouldn't it make two to four times as much sense to shut down Google? #thomasdart

    Wow. There's a Federal judge in this land of ours who isn't afraid of the idea that at least two consenting adults might be having a good time somewhere in the dark using their naughty parts? Glory be to God. #thomasdart

    What if the website itself has been naughty and simply begs to be spanked? What about that, Mr. Big Shot Federal Judge Guy? #thomasdart

    pushing the whores and johns to darker corners of the inet (and back to the street corner in the seedy part of town) serves no one. The brighter we shine the light, the safer it gets for everyone.
    Decriminalize online prostitution- fight pimping , street whoring, and condomless sex. #thomasdart

    @Flippyjack: The whole notion that it's illegal for anyone to charge for something that's so fundamental to our status as living beings is so strange to me. It's as if it were licit to eat in the privacy of your home, but as soon as you wanted to eat at a restaurant, you would be breaking the law. #thomasdart

    @i'm a bottle: If that's what CL was, that would be completely different. It's prostitution and CL knows it. Couldn't be any more out there. If they screened out actual hookers, fine, you are absolutely right. Consenting adults and all that. But the traveling skank show isn't healthy for anybody. That's not a restaurant a sane person would go to. "I'll have a disease, a robbery, oh, and maybe some blackmail for dessert." #thomasdart

    In olden times there was something called the Yellow Pages, where if you look under "E" for Escorts there were photos of girls, all named Amber or Tiffany, who would go to the movies with you for like $500.

    @Smooth Operator: I've found that blunt indifference to the tiresome earnestness of the Jezbians, with just a wee soupçon (if that's not redundant) of implied sexism, followed by a rapid-fire burst of snark, makes them so mad they go away.
