Vice: A Government Database for People Who Pay for Sex Is a Terrible, Dangerous Idea
A set of bills passed the Florida House and Senate earlier this month that would build a database of people convicted for soliciting sex, and which sex workers and advocates say will ruin lives and put them at more risk.
Senate Bill 540 and House Bill 851, when signed into law, will set up a database that includes anyone convicted of “soliciting, inducing, enticing, or procuring another to commit prostitution, lewdness, or assignation,” according to the Senate’s bill, which was drafted by Democratic senator Lauren Book. The “Soliciting for Prostitution Public Database” would filter everyone convicted of soliciting sex into one database. According to a spokesperson for Book, it would include already-public information from clerk of court including full legal names, date of birth, a mugshot, and the offense committed.

When is ‘enticement’ going to be made a crime? I do not go to the beach…I can get fly bit and sweaty in my own backyard without the travel and having to clean sand out of my car…but I saw a piece on the news yesterday taken at the beach. I cannot believe how women dress…or undress…in public nowadays. I would think they would be embarrassed but apparently not. Knowing how humans are ‘wired’, I would think that such ‘dress’ should be an ‘advertising for sex’ crime. What is our society coming to?
Port Richy Area Hudson,reminds one of Thailand with all the women hooking for all tbey can for the least they can. So the States answer to this is. Ruin the lives of more men
Even if Senator Bimbo managed to get this bad law repealed after it inevitably backfires, the information will be out on the Internet for life thanks to private registries like HomeFacts or those extortion websites.
You’d think she’d understand how the average American feels about their personal info plastered all over the Internet given how Senator Bimbo claimed my posting of her home address online was a “death threat”. (She was using her home address as her home base for her dubious PAC, and I merely republished what was a matter of public record.)
No, Senator Bimbo, you can’t easily undo what’s plastered online, you know, like your daddy’s DUI arrest, or your daddy’s conviction for Fraud, or his conviction for illegal campaign contributions, or the fact you are still pocketing GEO Group blood money, or the fact you are still a primary reason Broward and Miami-Dade County has a unique homeless registrant crisis. No amount of lawsuits and restraining orders can silence the truth.
hahaha..so at what point are people finally ready to ban together and remove of those seeking you and your families destruction ?..you may want to learn a bit about your founding fathers and their vices and opinions of acceptable oppression..its way past time unless you enjoy lives worse then slavery ..at least slaves were wanted and allowed to have a place to live .
