Craigslist will replace its controversial online "erotic services" listings with a section where ads are individually checked by Craigslist employees before they are posted, according to Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal.
The popular national classified-ad Web site -- which Blumenthal called "a blatant Internet brothel" -- has been accused by law enforcement officials across the United States of promoting prostitution through its erotic ads.
What say you ATS?

I for one think prostitution should be legal, if someone wants to sell themselves, go for it, not hurting me. It would also make it safer for all parties involved. IMO
What say you ATS?
She was meeting up with adult men in hotel rooms making a lot of money for sex. I found out about it and brought it to her parents attention. She actually told me of some horrible stories and how she thought she would loose her life many times.

If the trade were legal, no one would hire a 16 year old, and there would be stiff competition from the legal outlets. Hopefully the legal supply would equal the demand side of the equation and protect girls like her.
Props for standing up for her and involving parents, I bet that was a tense conversation.
