First, immoral is very different from illegal. (I'm a big John Roberts fan.)

Second, whether I might support prostitution is of little value. Prostitution itself is harmless, and so probably a poor example. Even so, I think of it as a state's right.

Still, I believe in free will (I'm one of few formally trained Miltonists). And so I would necessarily follow with the Areopagitica quote. More, I would say that obedience without choice is tyranny. (See Islam.)

I admire and applaud and congratulate a virtue that 'sallies out to see her adversary,' and chooses virtue at the end, and sticks to that.
