Prostitution does happen in my city. Prostitution happens everywhere. If it was decriminalized (not legalized, just not a prosecutorial offense anymore), I would be glad that the city wasn't wasting my tax money and police time to try to keep the city moral.

Yes, it does affect me directly. My family lost someone to being a hooker and not only did it affect me, it affected members of my family.

Quite frankly I think hookers, pimps and ANYONE who solicits their "services" is trash. Simple as that. I have no sympathy for people who choose this lifestyle (not forced).

I guess San Franciscan's have some moral fiber left in them.
