Politicians are such fucking idiots. "We've got a pedophile problem" "Close the bars at 1 am, and make prostitution extra illegal"

Passport bros?

Ban all crackers instead, bound to be more helpful than whatever the fuck this current plan is

what does shutting down sex work and bars do unless children are at bars & doing sex work???? classic carceral thinking, making whatever processes/institutions that enabled this more oblique and underground than transparent

At a press conference, Mayor Federico Gutiérrez said that he would be signing two decrees: one, prohibiting sex work in the area of Medellín for six months, and another, the enforcement of a 1 a.m. closing time for bars in the area for a month.

So now people will not be able to make a living because of this scumbag. Were I a sex-worker in the area, I'd be pretty pissed off. I don't know a better way to address this, I'm just saying that this is why we can't have nice things.

It tracks that he went back to Florida.
