Prostitution: Have you ever?

[BainsBane]

7. I have first-hand experience with this issue

of growing up in an area where prostitution proliferated and was in effect legal because the cops protected the operation. I was one of the many children preyed upon by men who came to buy sex. That was a daily occurrence, as anyone who grows up in such areas knows.

If your notion of puritanical is the right of children not to be raped, bought and sold as property, then so be it. Include Noam Chomsky and Chris Hedges on your list of puritans.
