Tangential but literally moments ago I evaded a prostitution sting. I met someone on Grindr who was really cute and she asked for payment upfront. Then I said that makes me nervous and I’d like to get to know you first, just a regular date. She agreed and then when I arrived to pick her up she changed her tack and demanded payment to do anything at all. I said ok, meet me in the lobby so we can discuss further. Refusal. Ok video chat with me to discuss further. Refusal. All with bullshit excuses. I played every angle I could and the shape of her was that she accepted nothing except what could incriminate me. I understood it was a sting very quickly. It’s so disturbing that the cops would saddle me with a class D felony even though I never wanted to pay her. They tried to pressure me in the moment to create criminal behavior where there was none. And then I would go to prison and probably be killed, certainly changed and damaged mentally for the rest of my life. Years of my life gone, my career ruined and my dreams destroyed all for those bastard cops to have the thrill of making a bust. It fucking sickens me. Our society is deeply sick where this violence is not only tolerated but endorsed and lawful. The cops are bastards and we need to put them in their fucking place. Thank god for first amendment auditors…
