Thread: Only in Nevada?

I had to do a double-take at this headline:
Lance Gilman, Nevada Brothel Owner, Wins Storey County Commissioner Race
Is this the new community business model?

Fits right in with the all the other prostitutes elected to public office. Isn't screwing the tax payers what it's all about?

Well, as my father says, "the voter gets what they deserve."

Yea, but it's getting so bad they don't even pretend to kiss you first anymore.

Better yet is the fact that in mediaeval London, the biggest pimp of them all was the Bishop of Winchester. Most of London's sex trade was located on the south side of the Thames. And most of the land there was held from (and therefore rent was paid to) the Bishop of Winchester. For a fair chunk of the period, the good bishop controlled the bulk of the trade in London.

Anyway... back to Nevada.

Is there some issue here? He's a good honest business man and pays plenty in taxes and probably in a depressed part of the state contributes more in revenue than most.

No, no issue for me. It is just the irony that it took so long to finally elect a politician with the right credentials for the job.

Well one shouldn't seek to have sex with a prostitute.
Sex should only be a Spiritial act bewteen two people who care for each.
A why for two lonely souls to become one and whole.
Sex should never be a meaning thing for one's pleasure.
The world would be a better place if everyone followed this idealogy.

And when the love stops you wind up paying for it anyway. It is called divorce.

Bob

Ya don't have to get married to be in love someone else.
