College guys having a stripper is nothing shocking or unusual - these same guys go off and live normal lives and families and contribute to society. For strippers, it is their life and their livelihood. See the difference?

No. Not only do I not see the difference, I'm actually inclined to believe that the men who hire strippers are of lower standing than the strippers themselves. And this is regardless of whether they rape or assault the women.

But then again, I'm a conservative.

By your logic, a person who watches a sex scene in a movies is lower moral standing than the actors in the sex scene.

Also, a person who smokes a joint is worse than Pablo Escobar.

Pablo Escobar murdered people.

Young women who take their clothes off, because rich young men of low morale character pay them large amounts to do so, don't murder people.

Again, I apologize for being an old-fashioned conservative on this question.

So Pablo Escobar was just a great guy except for the murdering people part?

I'm saying the comparison is ludicrous.

True, but only when the allegations actually surface in public. Recall the incident involving the star running back @ Nebraska? Tom Osborne basically got caught running a 'private investigation' that was way out of his (football) jurisdiction.
