When we banned liquor that didn't work

banning prostitution didn't work

I want less prostitution

porn was banned in the US for a long time. Tell me do you really think we have less of it now that its legal?

banning liquor was dumb, it has been a staple of civilization

So if you can get less prostitution, and control the remainder why not do that?

meanwhile apparently Denver is now the capital of stoners

why not legalize murder and theft?

Instead of banning it for a point

Because prostitution is different from murder and theft

It's sex for cash. It's victimless crime. It's not healthy for society, but if you can control it and limit it to out of the way establishments, all the better

look incentives work. If you want less prostitution punish those involved in it

a pro prostitution traditionalist, I've seen it all

have confidence in what you believe, if you believe prostitution is bad for society, do what must be done for the good of society

You're being facetious.

@Deleted User hes saying that banning prostitution will be not as effective as limiting prostitution to a few brothels

I'm not pro prostitution

legally you are

I'm saying it's ineffective to ban it outright unless you want to execute anyone who engages in it

are there stats for prostitution?

you're saying you wish people didnt do it, but we shouldn't punish them for doing it. It's libertarian thinking

which wouldn't be justifiable

No it's not lol

I'm saying I want less people doing it, and you actually might get more if you ban it outright

hes saying ban prostitution outside of brothels

qurantine it

And you can't control where it goes

If you license specific brothels like what happened in the middle ages, you can contain it so it doesnt infect children and the rest of society

plus in a trad society whores will be shunned

victimless crimes as you call them can be detered just like all behavior

In theory

But it hasn't worked in practice

so only lowlifes will go towards brothels

it has the US was fine

Uh

the US has always had whores

when they've been legal and illegal

did I claim it was possible to have a society without crime?

ohhh

i know how

no. I claimed that you can deter behavior via punishments
