California is legalizing child prostitution. If it isn't illegal for a 15 year old girl to sell her body, how can it be illegal for a 40 year old man to buy her body? Who will this law benefit?

I had no idea that pimps had a lobby group.

This law benefits the pimps and the underaged prostitutes. What will be legal in California next? Child pornography? Look for NAMBLA and Jerry to legalize that one next

Hmmm. More restrictions on cow farts, less restrictions on child abuse. Yeah, calibfornia.

Lots of younger kids get their start in the world of crime by committing crimes for gangs when they're under age and aren't penalized as much and everything they get caught for gets expunged from the record when they become adults.

Talk about the Law of Unintended Consequences.

If a 15 year old girl has sex with a 40 year old guy, without money changing hands, only the guy gets charged.

This law makes it easier for girls forced into prostitution to testify against their pimps.

They’re just bowing to the market reality of high teenage unemployment. /S

What liberals have done is make it seem as if most prostitutes are victims. The use terms like “human trafficking” so it’s not the hooker’s fault.

Human trafficking may rarely be the case but most these prostitutes are criminals. My guess is that there are about to be a lot more young prostitutes in California.

Under-aged prostitution has been legal for decades in Hollywood.

All you have to do to find it is walk on the set of a Nickelodeon production.

I don’t have a problem with this.

It is those who purchase (or try to purchase) sexual services form minors who should be arrested and charged with sexual assault with a minor.

Even cases not involving a minor, if prostitution is illegal, it should be illegal for both parties, not just one.

Yikes... Sounds like California voters are determined to commit suicide by politician.

Jerry Brown, haven't you heard? Jesus loves the little children.

The means for a runaway minor to make money are rather limited.

Child labor laws have their own unintended consequences.

Who will this law benefit?

Intuitively, I'm going to have to say human traffickers.

And the bums are in.

We’ve got a bum whose taken up residence on our street, full junk-wagons and all, and the police will not move him, claiming he has a “right” to be on a public sidewalk.

My liberal neighbors hate it even more than I do, but I’ve told them, “Thank øbama and the democrats. Good election ploy, eh?”

Mention Trump however, and they go all white with fear.

Would a prosecutor knowingly bring prostitution charges against a young girl who was forced into prostitution? I really doubt it. So what’s the real purpose of this law?
