...so he runs to the media. That’s a nice way to force government to take action. Bravo.

As a bonus, he gets to reduce his competition in town. Bravo, again.

Many years ago, in Austin, I was on a jury for a prostitution sting. The Korean woman said only one thing in English: “Fifty dollars”. Had I not been in a jury room with five housewives in a rush to convict and go home and make dinner, I could have spent hours dissecting this and perhaps showing how the police had done far less than prove their case but the court-appointed defense attorney would have needed to pay me for doing his job for him and I did not want to work for free.

I did tell the prosecuting attornies that I could teach my parrot to say “Fifty dollars” and it would not make my parrot a prostitute. The cops barged in before any act commenced.
