Prostitution and the law...

True. Would "rehabilitation" be an alternative legal sentence, implemented by a judge who thought the prostitute in question would respond well to such a treatment? I'm sure some of these women, if given the chance, would greatly desire to stop despairing and live a normal life. Shouldn't we, as society, attempt to make that happen?

Yes.  I don't think the slammer is the answer unless the person is a serious repeat offender.

One thing I do feel strongly about is that we need more Church ministries designed specifically for dealing with problems such as these, and working in conjuction with the court system.

One thing I love about my Church is our Transformation and Loving Care program.  Under the umbrella of this ministry there are two programs--Divorce Care and Confident Kids.  When people go through a divorce they have to deal with the court system to a certain degree.. and they get an automatic referral to this ministry and I know alot of people have greatly benefited from it.

We also deal with drug addictions and stuff like that. Who better to minister to a drug addicted prostitute than a former drug addicted prostitue who has been down that road?

Josephus: relegated to selfishly spending our tax money on politician's vacations other than sending it to support charity rehab programs


'I agree and it enrages me...

I think that jail time should be like the good old days........ stone walls, extremely agonizing torture, and slow painful death for those pieces of SH#T!
Only if there was absolute proof that they did it....... ex. dna samples..... witnesses that saw it happen........ You know........ without a doubt.

Instead, we have to pay our God()E@mn tax dollars on them so that they can be more comfortable than much of the hard working citezens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TV, school, Books, 3 square meals a day!!!!!!!!!!! An exercise room where they can work out!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THose F^$ks should ROT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (excuse me, I have to go dunk my head in ice water........ I think my pressure is about to cause my body to explode.)

Yeah, sure, no education to those that have no education, therefore finding easliy a job when going out of prison.
I guess we should not give prisoners food, that´s really a nice thought. It would be very cheap then, after all it takes only rooughly 9 days for a human to starve to death. Perhaps they shouldn´t get water, too. So we can kill off prisoners in 3 days through water deprtivation. very christly thoughts...

They deserve it. The murderers the rapists, the child molesters. As for not giving them water. Of course they should get water! Why should they be let off so easily? Give them a quarter cup every couple of days. And food? Throw them the stale bread, and leftover rotting scraps! Infection will help torture their cruel souls. And I dont know about you, but I dont want someone like that getting a job in the community, let alone being let out of prison! Here's a thought. Jeffrey Dahmer...... Perhaps taht should tel.l you what I am talking about. Why should I give my hard earned tax dollars to someone who is that vile and destructive? I would gladly pay to see them suffer beyond one's most horrid nightmares.

Did you notice the thread heading?  We're talking about prostitution.

Well, it happens to be my tax dollars as well, and if I want to see it spent on rehabilitation rather than punishment I say spend the dollars for rehabilitation.

Everyone, despite being inside or outside a prison is still a humjan being, therefore has basic rights. Dehumanizing certain parts of the poulation was and is a tactic various fascist and nazi governments and parties do.
