"I'd "stop digging" if I were you, SE !"
Well as you're not me...
If I can survive several stints in Iraq I really think I should be the judge of when the digging should stop.

And I take it that you (doubtless a paragon of virtue, an upholder of moral rectitude, a flawless and righteous high-achiever) were wholly responsible for the fact that you didn't happen to be born into poverty, or that you didn't become trapped in a cycle of abuse, low self-esteem and despair? You're spending significant time loitering in the chat room of a convicted pederast, spewing out ill-informed bigotry and prejudice - perhaps you are not best placed to be claiming any moral high ground here

yes, I'm ALL of those !

many people were - but have managed to seek help and assistance and improve their lot WITHOUT reducing areas to further social depravation and exposing people (and children) to their "ways" (and used condoms / needles etc)
You're spending significant time loitering in the chat room of a convicted pederast,
still awaiting an appeal process !

I have my faults (very very few, of course) but tell me, HOW are we helping the people that you defend by allowing them to continue to sink into the depths of drugs, disease and violence that you seem to want them to ?

"...many girls are druggies,exploited by evil pimps,and can get off both the game and drugs with help"
Of course this was mentioned...but the thread was not about how to help prostitutes,but about a murder conviction.
I lived amongst these people for 5 years,and there are a variety of reasons they get involved..and a variety of reasons they either can,or cannot get off it.However you do need to gain their trust to do this,and using abusive terms will never achieve that.
But the thing I do think we all have common ground on is legalisation.Not a perfect solution to the problem,but one that does allow for a measure of legal control.
Systems in Germany/Holland have proved useful examples,& have proved that the public will tolerate it,but want a say in how it is run,and what is permissable.
Legislation of hard drugs for addicts is a proven measure to reduce crime.The high black market costs being a major factor in prostitutes need for work.
I once sat it 'Arthur's Bar,Lumb Lane,Bradford,chatting to a girl who proceeded to smoke over $400 of crack in the time I had 2 drinks...she then returned to the Lane to raise more money for the evil filth...desperation can lead to all kinds of things never dreamt about before.
Not an easy subject,and you will never solve of problem of the 'oldest profession',but you can at leastalter how we all interact,and try to protect the people whose lives are affected by this,both residents in areas they work,customers who may be abused/robbed,and the girls..who no doubt suffer from the many nasty effects of their profession.
