CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) -- U.S. Sen. Harry Reid took aim at the world's oldest profession Tuesday, telling state lawmakers the time has come to have an adult conversation about Nevada's legal sex trade if the state hopes to succeed in the 21st century.
The Democratic Senate majority leader's comments before a joint session of the Legislature came as owners, lobbyists and working girls for Nevada's brothel industry looked on from the gallery.

You can’t ban brothels, what else am I supposed to do when I have 2 mins to kill?
Well you dumb asses voted for this retard Reid,
Good luck with that.
Maybe if the whores had a union Harry’d be nicer to ‘em. The literal whores, that is.
Oh, I forgot. If the bunny ranch isn't paying Harry his kickback anymore, he isn't tithing on it. My bad. He might as well shut 'em down.
That's what I thought I remembered. I'm glad you filled in the details.
I think this is just an empty political statement. Dingy Harry knows it won't be taken seriously, but he can publicly claim that he opposes brothels for political gain elsewhere.
Ban Prostitution In Nevada. The Politicians Hate Competition.
Hey Harry there is a 10th Amendment and it is not your job.
Just eliminating the competition.
Joe Conforti, the original owner of the Mustang Ranch (outside Reno) gave a Reid aide a trunk full of cash for one of his first attempts to elective office. The aide now says thirty years after the fact. “Good Mormon” Reid had to have someone else pick up the cash to “keep up appearances.”
Why, because the only people allowed to screw the public for money, are the politicians?
**Maybe if the whores had a union Harryd be nicer to em.**
Do they have ‘workers’ comp, medical coverage and unemployment insurance?
They should unionize - yeah - that’s the ticket;)
I embrace Harry Reid’s attempts to piss off everyone especially organized crime.
Please Harry, keep running your mouth, it’s the gift that keeps on giving...
Priorities Harry huh?
Whoring - no
killing babies - yes
harry must have lost his hard on. he must’ve lost his free hand job from the brothels .
This is a very old trick used by unethical politicians, they come out with a public statement like this, the affected come running with their money satchels, the problem goes away.
Let me think how I can put this delicately......old man, very old....perhaps can’t rise to the occasion any more...thinking about those evil brothels that vexed him in his youth (you see, he couldn’t talk a normal girl into what he wanted).....so, what’s left - ban the damned places - that’s what.
Give Harry a shot of Viagra, and he would be standing at the door waiting for the next opening..
those hookers should join the SEIU and present ol’ Harry with a real conundrum...
We can just re-direct the johns to the senate, it’s pretty much the same sort of enterprise anyway.
