Fox News - AOC's 'red light' district overrun with prostitutes

Not in Kansas anymore
"looks more like the famed brothel-filled red-light district streets of Bangkok"

I know Fox News ran this as a negative, but the PL in me went "Hot Damn!". Any politician that made a campaign promise of turning part of their district into an American version of Nana Plaza or Soi Cowboy to bring in tourist dollars is going to get my vote.

Some hard left Dem friends are talking about running her for president. I'd take two terms of Kamala Harris over one month of her. Just imagine her playing the victim like she loves to do around Xi or Putin.
If they do actually have pimps, I pass on that. If they are loitering in front of business who don't want them there., I pass on that.
Some of them are probably doing off-the-books sex work because their work permits are held up. Due to Trump blocking the bill that would have provided the funds to ease ICE backlogs.
Members of Congress don't control the police in the areas they represent. Duh.
Chicago, Baltimore, Oakland, Detroit, New York City...Insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
I don't like AOC any more than anyone else here. But unless her position in Congress also includes enforcement of state laws and city ordinances, I don't know what she has to do with any of this.
Seriously dude, be better than this. This is the type of nonsensical connection that moronic Dems try to make. Republicans are better than that.
Meaning they 100% do have “pimps”.

I posted it in Political Discussions because I figured I was chumming the waters.
Fox News does this shit on a daily basis. Finding isolated negative stories and photos from Democrat-governed cities and making them front page stories. If they can link the stories to people like AOC or Harris then bonus points. Fox News viewers come to believe these issues are pervasive and representative... meanwhile they only capture like 0.0000001 % of what is going on in a city.
Yeah, we all know that Chicago, Minneapolis, Detroit, New York, Baltimore, and Oakland are paradise, especially for black people. Perhaps you should be asking yourself why stories about urban blight in Democrat-run cities are so easy to find?
Times Square was cleaned up with MASSIVE opposition from what I recall, all areas can be too with the proper will. NYC has created Tammany Hall V2. It is just a Hot Mess. 20 years ago I was showing dogs at The Garden at Westminster. Today, no way will I go.
More yada yada yada your lyin' eyes. I mean, news crews for CNN have been robbed WHILE DO A STARY ON THE STREET IN SANFRAN. WLD: Do you get off with this blathering?
Here's a good one: Harris wants to build lost-cost housing, like 3.5M of them. No idea where, no idea how to pay for them and now idea who will qualify. What I do know is: 1) The Community Reinvestment Act that Carter created and Clinton doubled down on that caused the 2008 Financial Collapse from "Sub Prime" (junk) mortgages; 2) The Projects in the late-1960s were such a stellar success.
Even Bono admitted the only way to help cure poverty is through Capitalism and not Socialism/Welfare/Transfer of Wealth, and he is a HUGE Leftie. https://www.forbes.com/sites/markhendric…
But......... Fox News would never run a story on reasons why people love New York City. I wonder why?
Harris also wants to give $25,000 of money we don't have to throw around, to homebuyers whom sellers know have an extra $25,000 to spend.
Anyone who's spent five minutes in an economics classroom knows Harris' economic plans are pure dogshit. The question is whether or not they care; they quickly go to some nonsense appeal to emotion.
Good feelings won't stop you from getting carjacked!
the spot that got raided last week surprisingly is still in operation. my girl took me there. she seems to be on the ball about the leo sort of thing so i kinda trusted her and just followed along.
i have no doubts that undercover(s) took my pic but i don't give a shit. i'm not going as regularly as i did last year.
Times Square changed because NYC voters voted for that, as far as I know.
So 3 Cuban guys get arrested for pimping, and that proves all immigrant sex workers are pimped. If a majority of American voters are now this dumb, Trump will simply be presiding over an inevitable shit show of a country.
It would generate income. It would actually lower the chances of human trafficking.
It's just so dumb to make men like me criminals for victimless crimes. If anyone has been robbed from these exchanges, it's me (because their is no legal recourse, funny how that works).

But this is OK because The Lion King or something. Lulz.
Countless independent and verified witnesses from all social strata confirm that it is not safe to walk two blocks alone in New York, the Magnificent Mile, San Fran, Baltimore, the FQ, and all other urban centers of blue cities in blue states. This is because there is no law and consequences. This is because they want drug dealers, pimps, rapists, illegals, junkies, crazy homeless and others roaming free. Why? I have no fucking clue, but is the truth that they do.
We'd be in a better position to address immigration with more resources and funding, but Republicans have been playing politics with the issue and blocking progress since they won the House in 2022.
a month ago at that same spot there was a file cabinet that my girl had to move. i wonder if that was around during AOC's occupancy. AOC may have practiced her head game down in that basement and pulled a cabinet drawer out to spit out some seeds.
"Times Square changed because NYC voters voted for that, as far as I know."
People voted for Giuliani for Mayor as he was the Federal Attorney for the SDNY. In the mid-1980s he ran the "MAFIA Commission" to crush the Five Families. Voters liked that and he ran in '93 and lost to Dinkins by a tight margin of less than 50K. NYC devolution slowed a tad under Dinkins yet was still bad. Rudy was elected in '97 by a margin of 50K and he ran on a liberal plank, and he cracked down on crime with his "Stop-and-Frisk & Broken Windows" approach to crime. When he focused on cleaning up Times Square, he faced heavy resistance from city gov't collecting their payola, call it NYC's Deep State. People here in TUSCL who lived there back then would know a lot more than me as I had moved 10 years ago out of NY in 1983 to Colorado.
@WLD4TATAS: Entertainment in NYC is expensive, really expensive. Period. There are like over 8M living in the NYC Boroughs, 75% of crime is done by illegals, a lot of crime is never reported or recorded and a lot is downgraded and dismissed, then no bond. No one has disputed this number: https://nypost.com/2024/09/02/us-news/mi…
One problem with crime reporting to the FBI is it so complex now local authorities don't bother. Murder rates and felonies that are reduced to misdemeanors or dismissed from deep Blue cities are not reported. There is a 1950s book used in Stat classes called "How To Lie With Statistics". As Ross Perot said, "We need to look under the hood."
Puddy, Muddy, Gammanu95, others and I can list reliable sources to back-up what we say. As for the radical leftists, the Kool-Aid is dug into their deep white matter like an Alabama Tick.
Its hypothetical for those on here to feign outrage when they pay for their services
wild4testes version of resources and funding is more money to pay for the illegal's expenses and fast track them to citizenship. That's not addressing anything except manufacturing more freeloaders to live off real citizen taxpayers.
The only way to address it is stop them and turn them back before they cross the border. You don't need more resources or funding for that.
wild4testes is so enamoured with his fellow left's collective nutsacks on his chin that he's delusional and will buy anything they say.
It all needs to stop!
