SAN ANTONIO -- The San Antonio Police Department is cracking down on prostitution on the South Side.

Officers made 113 prostitution arrests in the Roosevelt and South Presa area within the first six months of this year.

The crackdown will continue for the next month. But some business owners in the area say they don't believe the crackdown will have much impact in the long term.

Many fools are sucked in by prostitutes, but in the end, there is a payment that must be blessed by the order of our Lord, the Jesus known as Christ. Nothing less than his salvation and eternal wisdom will allow entrance into what we peasants can only hope as heaven, the dream of things to come, as has been been blessed and foretold in the Holy Bible. Whores are not part of the narrow way.

There is a NEW SHERIFF in town. A Woman, yes. A retired Major General from the USAF. She is my BOSS. I can assure you that things will be coming to a halt with all of the things that were accepted before. She is a person of her word. You will see changes coming within the Sheriff's Office and thing will start to happen.

I'm not worried about prostitutes at least they earn their money. I'm worried the whores in the congress who want to take money and give it to people who didn't earn it and will likely spend it on drugs, alcohol and prostitutes.

All this sex talk is just going too far and I don't know why they didn't clean up that place a long time ago. The old sheriff is a Democrat and a known heathen who drinks whiskey and gambles at dice. He probably didn't want to run all those harlots off. This new sheriff is a woman. I don't know what has gone wrong with the world. Couldn't the Republicans find a suitable man for the job? That is no job for a Democrat, but it's no job for a woman either. Maybe she will arrest all those women and put them on a train out of town. Maybe she will hire some of them as deputies, the way the world seems to be going. I just don't know what to think anymore. All these people have lost their way, which is sad. In the End, which is near, BTW, they will all have to go to Hell if they don't get right with Jesus.

It is nasty, and no one should ever have to do this in real life.

Donoho,that might work out really good, because then Little Castro would have more taxpayers ready to choke him. Kill two birds with one stone.

Hopefully they’re arresting the “johns” as well. It’s the old law of supply and demand. If the demand would go away, so would the crime. Oh, and how about this, @Oilfield…how about if the city legalizes prostitution? Then all the fees the ladies collect would have sales tax applied to them, and Mayor Castro would get his Pre-K cut! LOL!
