NYC sex workers rampant in open-air prostitution market amid lax enforcement

It’s well after midnight on a Saturday morning, but traffic is as thick as rush hour along a four-block industrial stretch in East New York, Brooklyn.

Scantily clad women walk mid-block, their heels click-clacking on the asphalt as they move from car to car, leaning into driver’s side windows to entice the next man in line.

One woman on the sidelines, appearing disinterested, sips from a can of Red Bull through a straw.

It’s a rare break in a cycle that repeats for hours on end: Hopping into strangers’ cars, riding out of view for 10, sometimes 30 minutes, then getting dropped back off to do it all again.

This open-air sex market has operated in plain sight on Friday and Saturday nights for months. The women, many likely trafficking victims, stop drivers who line up for their services. Their pimps pull the strings from the shadows.

Law enforcers are probably more angry about drivers letting their engines idle.

Anyone remember Times Square of the 1970s?

In so many ways, it feels like the 1970s again; Gas prices and other prices are skyrocketing, US currency is being devalued, gangland-style shootings are filling American urban areas, there is precipitously declining trust in government and other key institutions of civil society and...

...hookers are walking the streets of Manhattan with impunity. Good times. Good times.

LOL, I was just thinking that exact same thing! Everything old is new again.

Victimless crime.
Law enforcement negatively affects BIPOC/women/Trans.
Nothing to see. Move on.

Current and former vice cops told The Post that there’s little incentive to make arrests, with the office of Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez moving away from prosecuting prostitution cases, a shift that began in mid-2019.

Why arrest 'em if they're out of jail before their John's had a chance to lie to his wife? The commmie way is to destabilize the country first... THEN take over.

Government doesn’t like it because they can’t tax it.

I looked at the pictures. Why am I reminded of Bertha Butt and the Butt Sisters?

It’s a regular “Pottersville”. Apparently George didn’t get a 4F after all and died in the war.

I grew up NYC area 50s-60s. Times Sq was a real dog and pony show - a freakin’ pigpen.

All of that work Giuliani did to clean up Times Square is being undone before our very eyes...

I grew up further upstate, but had relatives in Staten Island and on Long island who we would visit during visits to NYC. Stories of misadventure in mid-town/Times Square from older cousins have burned into my memory.
