Prosecuting Johns

excellent article. thank you to Melissa Farley And Norma Ramos for calling out our government for its hypocrisy and bias towards those in power. prostitution is not a victimless crime and the u.s. attorney's failure to pursue this case just shows that our country is still turning a blind eye to it.

Sure, DEMOCRAT Spitzer broke the law. There was no victim here: he got his sex and she got the money. Whereas, We the People, are being victimized every day by the lawbreakers who are stealing our money to bail out companies that also stole our money. Now, that's a crime that has many victims. Spitzer is small change.

The Fallen One.....I agree.Eye for and eye!!!

WOW ANOTHER ONE OFF THE DAMM HOOK

kbrunke...because its the law thats why so kick away until hes coughing up blood....ok thats harsh but he needs to be held in the same light as you and I would be.No special treatment...you wouldnt get it so why should he? A typical person would lose a wife,not see their kids all the time,possibly lose a job as well and still be found guilty.No bailout for Spitzer!!!

Idiot Spitzer made prostitution a crime landing people on the state sex offender registry. i say put HIM on the registry. And get Foley, too, while you're at it. Instead, both of them get off scott free. http://www.oncefallen.com/SOLawsAndSexScandals.html

Thank you! Good article. We punish/rehabilitate people who take drugs and are found with drugs, not just pushers. Shouldn't we punish/rehabilitate people who use women, and not just the prostitute women (or men) pushing themselves? The fact that Spitzer is getting off with nary a punishment OR a rehabilitation is equally as criminal on the part of the judge as the act on Spitzer's part. Injustice has two sides: those who commit it and those who allow. The judge is just as guilty as Spitzer. Get both of them to therapy! Cure that self-hatred and that misogyny, men!

Poor abused women will always be with us until we all start living by the Golden Rule. That said, let???s all feel sorry if women got into prostitution thru actions not their own. Otherwise, they still know right from wrong. At least, that is what I learned in Sunday school. Besides, if guys would just ask their wives and girlfriends for more or unusual sex there would be a lot less need for ladies of the night.

The man already lost his job and was humiliated over it being made public. Why kick him while he's down.
Its sort of sick to consider locking him up. Why not just stone him . Whats the differance its inflicting pain on him one way or the other. Try

WOW LET ANOTHER ONE OFF THE HOOK THAT REALLY SUC*S YOU KNOW... ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS why why why ARE THEY SO SPECIAL I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND THE SYSTEM ANYMORE..

john0973...great words and great advice.I agree.She's the one slinging her booty for profit so lock her up just like a drug dealer...same principal.Power to the people!!!

Give us a break it is just business, they have a product, and if some idiot wants, or has to pay for it so be it. Legalize it get mega millions in tax money. Free our police force up for important things. unclog our courts a little. Have the providers in save registered licenced business establishments, where they are tested regularly for disease, and both the consumer and provider can have large degree of safety from violence. whiwWhile

wow another one off the hook!!!! you got to be joking if it was any other male doing that you know damm sure that they would be locked up but not if your a politcian wow can you tel us what is wrong with this whole pitcure... messed up thats all i have to say that this is all messed up ...unbelivable

Comment: Its Just Stupid !
For one The Prostitute Should Be Jailed For a Long Time.
Okay Lets Look at it this way. The Guy Who Buys $20 Worth of Crack Should Get Far Mor Jail time than the Person Who Sells $500,000 Worth of Drugs Every Year.
Maybe We Should Let a Hitman Go Free,and ONLY Punish The One Who Hired Him.

The Fact is ..Just Like Drugs, Prostitution is ILLEGAL and the Prostiute Is the One Who Offers Her Body For sale.So why Shouldnt She Get The Worst Penalty Under the Law ?

Same old same sh**. This laws for you, Bud. Not me. Tim

Wake up to the real world folks! He just wanted to wet his dipstick. This hasn't a thing to do with his duties as a public servant. If we all knew of all the variations that happen in the political world, we would have reading fodder for a long time.
