no more topless bars in SA

[rjv]

probably a blessing in SA at least. haven't been to one in over a decade but my last recollection was that it was a good thing there was dim lighting. love the choice of wording by the judge:

The court infers plaintiffs fear enforcement of the ordinance would strip them of their profits, affecting their bottom line,” the judge wrote. “Conversely, the city asserts these businesses contribute to reduced property values, violent crime, increased drug sales, prostitution and other sex crimes and therefore need to be girdled more tightly. Plaintiffs, and by extension their customers, seek an erection of a constitutional wall separating themselves from the regulatory power of city government.”

technically, one could argue that a wal-mart has the same effect.

[mouse]

God forbid men go see a female with her top off, after all where can you possibly see such a thing in this day and age........... the www?

Topless bars provide an income for hot single moms who want to pay for their daughter's braces or maybe some cool new implants to help seek better employment.

I wish half the passion and money spent to shut down a Titty bar was used to stop home invasions in San Antonio.

Or light rail...

Or light rail...Seems to have had the opposite effect in Dallas and no appreciable effect in Austin. Upon what are you basing your claim?

How long has it been in service?

The Max here in the Portland area has become a magnet for criminal activity. Almost every stop has a very high crime rate at night. Property prices outside of the city have plummeted along the route. It's been in operation now for about 30 years.

Clearly Portland needs to put more topless bars near the light rail lines. When you multiply two negatives, you get a positive.

[Wild Cobra]

Do you have an actual source for this?
I could find one, but you can as easily. Max is part of Trimet. I have lived in this area since 1994, and remember a time before the light rail. I have seen articles on the subject, but most is personal observation since 1976.

There is a disproportional amount of crime near the Max light rail stops.

Those are reported crimes. As more people realize reporting does no good, they stop reporting it. These numbers of course would be impossible to determine. The police have made efforts to reduce these problems, and id doing so, getting very, very expensive to maintain. I believe the current full cost per ride is now in excess of $30 after you include the stepped up police enforcement. A day pass is $5.00. At this rate, it would be cheaper for the city to pay taxi drivers for people's rides.

[clambake]

well, if she's going to dress like that.......she's asking for it.

she's not going to report it anyway.

[ChumpDumper]

Those are reported crimes. As more people realize reporting does no good, they stop reporting it. These numbers of course would be impossible to determine.So it was never a reliable number in the first place, and everything you posted was worthless. OK.

Chump.

I don't care to take the time to looking up links to support what I have witnessed over the years. The cost is at least close. There was an analysis of the cost of building the Max, how much employees are paid to operate and maintain it. The minimum estimates range around a $15 subsidy per ride. You can believe me or not as you wish. I don't care. Not worth my time to prove it, especially to you.

Ever.

You never have and you ignore or attempt to hand wave away all evidence that piles up contrary to the stuff you make up.

It's just fun to watch you get all indignant about it.

just when I'm not sure you could be any more of an ass talker at this point in your ST posting career, you just keep on producing ass talking at a hall of fame level.

strippers are fun as hell to hang out with

Hookers are even more fun. Back in the day before the cartels took over we'd go to Pappagallo's and grab the table right by the door. Once they figured out we would buy them drinks but weren't gonna fuck em they were just funny as hell. We would joke about the fresh meat coming through the door and were just swarmed all night with flirting honeys.

Might be the first time I've heard a guy brag that he bought a chick drinks but didn't get any.

This thread went to a weird place...let's change the goalpost..

http://i.imgur.com/lbbd0OW.jpg


On Monday, a Redditor using the name "Menagerii" made office workers around the Internet drool after posting a picture of what she said was the cash she made in one day's stripping. The photo, posted to the r/pics subreddit, was captioned, "From now on when people ask me why I'm a stripper, I'm just going to show them this picture (one day of work- 1130am to 3am)."

Redditors counting at home soon realized the tips totaled over $3,000. MSN claims the number is actually $3,445. Although this is about twice what Menagerii said she normally takes in, $1,500 a night (give or take) isn't anything to sneeze at, either.

The tantalizing stack of bills was earned during a 15-plus hour shift at an all-nude joint in Atlanta, according to Menagerii. Over the course of the day, Menagerii said she had "30 or so table dances and five stage sets." A stripper for four years, she also revealed she has implants ("went from a 32b to a 32d"), a six pack and is working to put herself through engineering school.

....

"It's a little awkward at first, but I got used to it," she wrote. "I have always been open about my body, so most of my friends and lots of strangers had already seen me naked before I even started dancing. Some girls have to drink a lot before they are comfortable, even girls that have been dancing for years. I was fortunate to be naturally outgoing and open minded."

LOL hookers always saying they're students.

One of my friends on the FB is a stripper and she is a pretentious twit with a hot bod, but she seems to know the difference between 'wants' and 'needs'... although she makes stripper money and works stripper hours, she is always short on cash...

sup guero. haven't seen you around much.

I have no idea what you are getting at but your interest in days old posts of mine definitely gets you into the fan club.

I really do make it a point to not make up things so as to base my worldview on what I want rather than what is objectively true. If I am unsure about the validity of what I say I do try and qualify it. I think that introspection is important. I am hardly infallible. That being said, WC has made a way of life of the aforementioned.

Perhaps you should consider why your ass still hurts when you and I have had no discourse in what? a year?

I used to hang around strippers in a particular club. I heard so much about the pathetic guys who thought they were the shit. That would be funney to see Blake come in, play with the girls a bit, and then see what they would say about him.

Lol going to brothels to talk to hookers to talk shit about guys who go to brothels to fuck hookers.

Unlike Blake I can afford to buy the drinks if I'm having fun, and I don't have to pay for sex when I've got a ranch with a lot of cattle.
