Secret Service Scandal Moves Advocates to Call for Legal US
Prostitution
If prostitution hadn't been legal in Colombia, the United States would most likely be
focusing on Brad and Angelina's wedding rather than the antics of President
Obama's security detail.
Never mind the use of taxpayer dollars, the potential threat
to national security, the embarrassment brought to the U.S. government. In one regard, at
least, "Hookergate" was a good thing, at least to sex workers in the
United States: It called attention to the plight of sex workers here, where
prostitutions is illegal and practitioners have no rights.
"If it had happened here, the woman couldn't have gone
to the police and said, 'These guys are trying to cheat me out of money.'
Instead, she would have been hurt and cheated, and Mr. Agent Man would have
gone home and patted himself on the back for having gotten one over on
her," said Maggie McNeill, a former New
Orleans call girl and the founder of The Honest
Courtesan. CONTINUE . . . . .
