    The more I think about it, it sounds like a way for police to skim extra cash from a vunerable, people from out of town. All it takes is some agreement within the Dept to share the bounty.

    I have long felt that our society is too punishment oriented.

    Everyone is free to do as he or she chooses but they also know the risks involved wether I agree or not is an entirely different matter. If you know something is against the law and you continue to do it then you also know there is a chance you will get busted.

    In my opinion it is stolen. Just like LAPD confiscating a vehicle if a john picks up a prostitute. There is no due process of law, the car is simply taken away. If the owner wants it back, he can bid on it at auction. That is unconstitutional.

    The punishment doesn't fit the crime. If you want to use the argument that the car was taken because it was used in the commission of a crime, then the police can take your car away for speeding.
    And that's hardly the only time LAPD pulls that crap.

    SoCal is well known for confiscating cars for "street racing", and what they (and now that its caught on; other departments across the US) will do with these cars is drive them around the streets, reving their engines at red lights etc hoping to get someone to play along. When that happens, they bust the other person for street racing- take their car... and its basically a scheme to get nicer cars for the police auctions.

    "Street racing" however isn't always what you think it is, in practice "street racing" to these asshats is anyone in a "nice car" that happens to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. I had a department (not in SoCal) that tried (thankfully failed to succeed) to pull that with me, only I wasn't even doing the speed limit.

    I have more stories about guns "disappearing" after being confiscated, cars used in "street racing" being set aside to be crushed [un-noticed by the car owner, the car was already stripped of its expensive parts by that point], and computers "going missing" just from people I know personally- to be unable to shrug it off as an "occasional breach of protocol"- the truth is that in some places it IS the protocol, either formally (as you talk about) or informally.

    Due process? If we cared about due process, we wouldn't stand for people being thrown in jail for significant amounts of time (more than an overnight stay) for petty crimes prior to the DA getting a conviction. IMHO if someone does a week in jail prior to their day in court for a petty charge, and then gets found innocent- the reaction shouldn't be an "opps, we fucked up... sorry about that whole week in jail..." Yet it happens.


    And maybe its easier to withdraw from life
    With all of its misery and wretched lies
    If we're dead when tomorrow's gone
    The Big Machine will just move on
    Still we cling afraid we'll fall
    Clinging like the memory which haunts us all

    I understand what you are saying, but also laws and priorities do sometimes get changed. Right now the US locks up a higher percentage of people than any other developed nation. And then those people are still penalized after they have served their consequences from the legal system. All this in a nation which says it wants Christian values, but does not recognize forgivingness as a core Christian value.

    Default Which cities hassle you the least?

    hi

    Sort of wondering about the other side of the coin being which cities and states hassle you the least when your doing escort work?

    just wondering since I have done some "modeling" work in Chicago without placing ads on eros and just going through contacts on places I do cam work.

    I am on the verge of a move and really on looking to expand my work but would like to go to an area where they arent so overzealous i guess.

    If this is inappropriate for discussion from me(im a noobie on here) I apologize.

    Interested in opinions though on the matter. Is L.A. good? Miami? DFW? Phoenix(which I would suspect not based on new laws they instituted)? umm Atlanta? etc.

    thanks for the patience

    Astrid

    Are you fucking serious? Your car can be confiscated for picking up a streetwalker?
    What the fuck?
    I'm moving.

    It can be confiscated for a lot of things. A guy who used to work with my dad lost his car because he brought "illegal fireworks" into the state from one of the neighboring states (where they are legal).

    They claimed he could only possibly have a trunk full of fireworks if it was intent to sell them illegally, and took his car. He never say a penny for it. As I recall it was a brand new, fully loaded Buick. He ended up having to pay off the car loan never having seen the car again after that "routine traffic stop."

    If you have a problem with escorts, why are you on here?

    The TS stars have a right to spend quality time with their fans. And if those fans decide to compensate the TS stars with a donation or a gift, that is their choice and right to do so.

    The laws and the vocabulary of entrapment is where the police and D.A. get to exercise their draconian punishments on these TS celebrities.
