Political funny pictures thread, part IV. Bring on the leather!

It has been suggested that this is "not a good example," presumably, not a valid question.
I invite explanations why it is not a valid question.
If possible, please do so without personal attacks or sarcasm.

It's a valid question but it's not a good example. It's not a good example because as a point against the left, people on the left would tend to think "sex workers" should be left the **** alone. So their position would be consistent on abortion and prostitution. Okay to kill a baby. Okay to sell *****.

This.

Jamil explained it better than I did earlier.

Again. Regulation. It's a health hazard.

I don't think the question asked is really trying to figure out why it's illegal. It's illegal because most people (some leftists + moderates + right wing) think prostitution should be illegal. Because the question implies that there is some hypocrisy, the question is really asking why the right to chose doesn't include the right to sell their bodies for sex, along with the right to kill their babies. And the answer to that is there really isn't any hypocrisy, because they'd say both are true. Women have a right to sell their bodies for sex. I'm sure you've seen the whole movement against sex worker shaming.

You should use more asterisks in your posts.

I can see it all now - they legalize prostitution then there will be a big movement for equal rights and equal pay for the "appearance challenged". and probably also for those who can't figure out what gender they are.

Yeah, I guess that's really the point. Those who support abortion should also support legalized prostitution to be logically consistent. Those who support abortion, but not legalized prostitution would be hypocrites.
Thanks to all who replied.

I suspect there are enough variations in taste that the "appearance challenged" would still find customers. Use of paper bags over the head might be a niche clientele. The so-called "gender fluid" would likely at least double their customer base.

She is so f*****g stupid - I bet she gets re-elected repeatedly.

It's like the I Have a Dream speech and Gettysburg Address had a baby.

 

[jamil]

That's a great idea for a bill. Dems should pass that right away. The left should embrace it. The media should faun all over it. Meanwhile, all sane people are thinking...okay, how bad could Trump be, really?
Bad column:

• Orange.
• Brags about using his position to take advantage of women
• Authoritarian
• etcetera...

Good Column

• Economy going pretty good.
• Isn't a bat **** crazy democrat

Well. It was pretty easy for her to get elected. No one votes in that district in primaries. She may do enough image damage to the Democrats that she'll get primaried if Trump wins in 2020. That is if they finally figure out how to do a little introspection.
