What's the Big Whoop With Prostitutes?

Would you want a brothel on your Main Street?

There is most likely already one. There is already prostitutes on it at evenings. At least, they would be in a building, not on the street, soliciting customers.

It wouldn't particularly bother me.

Even better, if prostitution was legal and regulated then the state/city would create/designate a red light district and nobody would care.

Yup, shove the seedy underbelly away from polite society where it's bad effects won't be noticed by the respectable public.

That's the way it is every day in every big city regardless of legalized prostitution.

I know. If its going to be legal though, I want it out in the open. Let's air the dirty laundry out.

How is it dirty? 

Perhaps the wrong choice of words. My point being, if prostitution is going to be legal, I'd prefer it be out in the open in middle class neighbourhoods. Let the full effects be felt to the middle class person. Perhaps a brothel next to the dry cleaners.

If it's legalized the free market will determine where the brothels will be.  You might get your wish, Al.

My experience with stripper bar cases in Quebec is than it's zoning law of the cities which determine it.
