Wow! I am floored. Three sex workers filed a suit with the intention of overturning prostitution laws in Canada and they actually succeeded! It couldn't happen in the US of A though – that is for sure. Congratulations to Valerie Scott, Terri-Jean Bedford and Amy Lebovitch!
Yes, I know that this is too many exclamation points for such a short paragraph, but I am really floored…. Prostitution is now decriminalized in Canada! Read the court opinion HERE. I realize that the laws were more liberal than ours before, but this is an entirely new ballgame. Read the complete article on CNN HERE.
Why can't the US offer such freedoms? Why is prostitution illegal in this country except under the heavy hand of a Nevada brothel? I was born and raised in Europe, but really grew-up in Germany. I also frequently visited Amsterdam to go to the coffee houses and clubs, but I have stated all of this before on this blog. I have lived with systems that actually work - as opposed to the US system that does not work at all.There is no reality based reasoning in the world that marijuana and prostitution should not be legal. Once again I am left with only a disgust for the stupidity that I encounter in this place (Florida) that I'm stuck in.
