Angry residents and workers Sunday decried the hordes of hookers brazenly peddling themselves on a Queens street, where it was business as usual the day after The Post exposed the rampant illegal trade.

“The police do nothing — nothing!” fumed Anna Garcia, 42, who works at a cellphone store along the seedy stretch of Roosevelt Avenue in Corona dubbed the “Market of Sweethearts” by the prostitutes.

“Drugs, prostitution, alcohol — it’s terrible,” she said of the flagrant “underground” red-light district taking over the neighborhood filled with families with children.

I though Giuliani cleaned all this up with his broken glass initiative in policing?

[BenLurkin]

‘“We have significantly reduced the number of arrests for prostitution itself as we work in every case to connect the victims of human trafficking with the services they need,” the Police Department said.’

I thought the whole city was a red light district.

Democrats are in charge.

Happy days are here again!................

The comments there are much the same as yours. Lots of Rudy nostalgia.

the policies from leftist dems encourage just about all this bad behavior. it’s called being stuck on stupid.

Almost all of them Orientals.

When you import the 3rd world, you become the 3rd world. This is Puppet Biden’s shithole America. /spit

Huh, that’s funny. In DC, 535 whores get a big marble building to practice their profession.

Who did you vote for Anna? You voted for Socialism and now you are surprised you got Socialism? ENJOY THE SUCK!

Giuliani had this crap cleaned up, and you let it back in, so enjoy.

First, they need to tell me who they voted for.

Then I’ll decide whether or not I have sympathy..

Police follow the orders of the Mayor and his goons - they don't sit around deciding where they'll patrol or what they'll do. They work for the city like other city employees.

When you reduce or remove the lawful police presence don't be surprise or shocked with what rushes in to fill that vacuum

I thought all of NYC was a “red-light district.”

[Spok]

The Democrat’s agenda is to degrade, dehumanize, and destroy. Unless and until the voters figure that out, it’s going to get worse. And worse.

Massage parlors and prostitution are a major industry for Chinese coming over. Flushing, Queens is chock full of hot sheets motels, “massage” parlors (even in shopping centers), and the like.

Beat me to it.
