Atlanta Escorts: How The English Solve Prostitution
Posted on August 7th, 2009 in Atlanta escorts
Normally we try to avoid the heavier stories that hit the news dealing with the hobby. Just do a Google news search and you’ll see an abundance of awful stories about underaged girls forced into sex work, violence by and against prostitutes and so on and so forth. We try to keep the blog light and fun, even when dealing with serious issues, so we avoid those particular stories as, not only are they depressing, but they don’t serve to enlighten us in any way as some stories do.
But sometimes a mostly serious story about the legal issues of prostitution pops up that, despite itself, boggles the mind so much it needs to be discussed. This is one of those occasions.
Recently, in Britain, a prostitute was picked up and sent to trial for doing what it is she does and her punishment is she’s been banned. Banned from being a prostitute for 5 years. Anywhere in England or Wales.
Follow me on this, if you will. In Britain, prostitution isn’t illegal per se, but public solicitation is. We have to conclude this particular girl was one who worked on the streets and was picked up for violating that particular law. So her punishment is she’s not allowed to do it anymore. But she wasn’t allowed to do it in the first place.
Legally speaking, you’re sort of banned from breaking laws already by virtue of the fact they’re laws. You’re not supposed to break them. Arguably this sentence carries with it the additional punishment that she can no longer even partake in the sort of legal aspects of prostitution that occur behind closed doors, but how the hell would anyone know she was doing that anyway if it was being done on the downlow which is how it’s supposed to be done to make it legal anyway?
