The cops dont have to do shit.Quote:

Thats not a good use of police resources.
If they get pressure from up on high, be it senior police, media pressure or politicians then we will know for sure.
As it is, the cases that have been prosecuted over the last few years are needle in the haystack stuff. The most likely outcome is a girl being deported (not that many) or warned off working in massage shops (a much bigger number)
Owners can always say they didnt know what their girls were doing once the doors were closed. They put up signs saying no sexual services allowed etc
As for brothels, they wield no power. Sucks to follow the rules i guess.
Ask taxi drivers how their license fees are following uber etc entering the market.
Police arent going to treat some guy getting done $200 by a hooker like it requires the full force of the law.
Small claims court goes up to 20k or something.
The amount of online fraud or people being cheated left right and centre by all kinds of legit businesses, your $200 dont mean shit.
They dont have the resources to investigate every little petty crime.
i'm not sure if you are trying to convince others or yourself.
i remember the days at New Farm where undercover cops posed as hookers. a lot of people got done and taken to court. most of them got slapped with a $200 fine and a record of no conviction. what did the police get out of all this ? still, they did it, and the operation went on. but people still think the police don't got the resources for such things. i can only say, believe what you want, when the day comes, "should have, would have, could have" boils down to nothing.
They have the resources for it when it's politically charged.
Eg heaps of complaints or an issue that's popped up.
Given the desperation they have at the moment in recruiting (year 10s are being plucked from school) and the youth crime issues. Noone gives 2 fucks about a rub and tug or some idiot getting fleeced for a pineapple.
When did undercover cops pose as Hookers in New Farm?Quote:

Police have resources to prosecute jaywalking if it comes from up high. Political or Bureaucratic.
The average cop does what he is told and they arent gonna worry about some hand shandys from an asian whore.
If people smuggling becomes a political issue, and its not likely, too much cheap labour, then maybe theres a few shops dancing awfully close to the line.
Police generally announce sting operations as a warning. They generally leave punters alone. Its the shops or girls who should be shitting themself. Still its needle in a haystack stuff.
Or you can sit and think the sky is falling and hide in your basement until there’s world peace. Good luck
Mainly 2001 thru 2009.. but occasionally from 2009-2016.Quote:

Defo in the period 2009-2016. They had a dwelling in Bromley or Toohey street about 100m from Ipswich road, where they would co-ordinate their entrapments in Kangaroo Point
Wasnt that street walking though? Loads of problems with street walking on both sides.Quote:

And in addition to all that, they would probably find quite a few of their colleagues as customers if they started to bust shops on a large scale...Quote:

Amen to that!!! Name and shame then avoid!!!Quote:

I believe it's actually against the law to accept illegal activities, so even if she is the one doing the propositioning, and you accept, then you are also breaking the law.Quote:

Sure hope they arent able to track you down and dangle you out a helicopter
If you have a bad punt and its the mls fault, dont see the ml again
If the shop more than once provides shit service, dont go again
If you have multiple shit punts at multiple venues, go find a mirror.
Look at it. Theres your problem.
Likely just one guy with different troll accounts.Quote:

Seen this a few times. Log in to one account and then logout and back into the next account. Too dumb to wait a few hours or the next day to make it look less suspicious. The other Brissy Boy maybe, I say maybe because he joined back in 2012 and the other two only last year.Quote:
