1. I have to say I think it's lame to call bringing escorts over state or international lines

for purposes of sex ... 'trafficking'.

If they're minors, okay. Fair term in that case.

But then, I fundamentally disagree with prostitution being illegal period.

The idea that you when you call someone who might be 10 miles away but over the state line to willingly come sleep with you for money, it's a federal case of 'sex trafficking' ... but if they're 5 miles away, in the same state, it's not ... is nonsense.

I have a pretty good notion that if one looked at all deeply into why this is the case ... some type racism will at least be a part of it.
