So, admittedly, I do not live in the best neighborhood.
But until very recently, there were only a few drug dealers down the block (like, younger mexican dudes on bicycles).
In the past two months, there is a new dynamic. First, there were two girls on the street corner late at night (I walk my dogs with my boyfriend pretty late).
Then, the next week, there were 4.
Now the few blocks that surround us are crawling with prostitutes late at night Thursday through Sunday.
I would like to say, no disrespect to those who make money this way... But this is a family neighborhood, there are children and elderly.. Sure, they aren't up from midnight to 5AM. But still.
I hate walking down my street and seeing some chick in a fricken thong, stilettos, and a shirt falling off of her ample breasts. I hate it. I called the police station, who said prostitution is a "vice" division thing and currently vice is working on taking down drug lords in the city. They won't arrest just for indecent exposure (a la miss thang in a thong), since that's a misdemeanor at most...
How would you deal with prostitutes in your neighborhood? Any suggestions?
And no, buying one is not an answer.
I'm concerned because I dislike seeing these women in next to nothing, working the streets and trying to work my boyfriend and I as we walk DOGS..., and with their pimps in the area. Pimps bring fights and fights bring violence, which I am not fond of. (These are fellows who do this, I am not making assumptions. I have heard the shouting.)
