cheers, Steroidal.

I just wanted to let you know that you are confusing your Lynchburg colleges. Randolph College, http://www.randolphcollege.edu/x5.xml, is the college in Lynchburg that took students on a field trip to the Chicken Ranch. Randolph College, formerly Randolph-Macon Woman’s College, has had some bad press lately for its decision to go co-ed, and for its decision to sell some of its historical art collection, in addition to the Chicken Ranch scandal. Lynchburg College is a completely different school.

Let me ask Carol a question. Brothels are apparently legal in Pahrump NV. So does that Brothel, “much more effectively address the serious problems of forced prostitution?” If no, then your proposal holds no water. It is legal in certain areas, and it poses the same dangerous threats to the girls that are caught up in it, to the environmental impact of your family having to deal with it one day. It’s going to be hard to explain to our teens walking in one day and finding out that is legal. It doesn’t even benefit the patrons. Most of the guys that would do something like that are not complete either, they were usually abused and/or neglected boys growing up and have not learned to interact with women in a healthy way. Some are trying to get away from hellish marriages; some are drug users in vices and addictions which really shouldn’t be given places to feed their habits, as they will only get worse. And then you have the law enforcement and legal system. Do I need to say how ineffective our legal system is right now? You are going to rest your, the girls, patrons, and your families entire fate and your view on life on them?

Even if it is legal, you still have to keep it in the bushes! You couldn’t even advertise on TV what they really do there. The only ones that profit from that are the biz owners. The patrons that go there are not going to be your world class people that are going to contribute to the world. The girls do not live a complete life. They don’t own big houses, drive nice cars and have big families. They don’t participate in society much if at all. The strippers might have some of those things, I have seen some that do, but in many cases they are broken in their thoughts too.

I think if you are really serious about stopping this, the power really lies in every persons ability to DO SOMETHING. If we can’t address the problems in an large scale orderly unified way, then no change would happen globally anyway. We have to make a better reason/reward for all the people to react than, “It would be nice.” There has to be a measurable reward and reason that isn’t just morally correct. Not everyone agrees on morals in this country- probably due to things like this issue- we have to make the reward universally accepted. This issue is going to need more than preachers preaching against it every Sunday and getting one girl out at a time occasionally. It is going to need more than Politicians saying they are going to clean up our X_________(fill in blank) It is going to take a massive country-wide unified effort that has common goals and common reward for everyone. I don’t remember the last time the country really got fired up about something since 9/11. We are too busy trying to keep the lights on. Somehow I don’t think this is important enough to the average American enough to get off their couches and come and help stop it.

Now that I think about it, the only thing that would work is if both sides came to a truce. From the working girls and their masters, to the public and the law enforcement/legal system. There would have to be put in place a whole new system to prevent it from reverting back to this old way of business. As of now, the current legal system is not capable of handling this scale of a project, nor would it do so. Which in the current state of affairs, the entire legal system would have to be reinvented back to founding fathers constitutional principles and actions before change could be implemented long term.

The problem I see is the value of the women in the country overall is too low to make the changes a priority nationwide. There is still a double standard on women and minorities. The work of late Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would have to be revived and re-empowered into action. Equality for all is still just a dream for some Americans. It seems we are heading backwards right now. What happened to these movements? They were never intended to be stopped. Those were ongoing dreams great men and women had to pass on to the next generation. The ball has been dropped.

Overall the consciousness of this nation would have to be improved whereas that starts with the educational system. That too, is another major system that has failed us. It seems all the major systems in this nation have failed systematically/cunningly almost to the point of calling it skilled sabotage. Until these systems can start educating the population with the truth, no real change can occur. The truth is, we all have value somewhere, and all deserve to be treated with righteousness.
