"The vast majority of sex workers are fairly normal folks who are not pitiable caricatures of drug addicts. "

On the south side of Chicago, 80% are exactly that.

Also, it's not Dan.

Love that last line: Oh, and the views from their apartments would be ruined. The irony. The unintended irony.

This reminds me of that alarmist article this week in the Seattle Times about the apartment building boom in Ballard. I couldn't resist going through the even more alarmist comments on the story just for the sheer masochistic entertainment. One of my "favorites" came from one "mrs hansen":
Oh My! It took Mr. Hansen and I about 45 minutes to get from I-5 to our house by the Locks... it felt like LA! Mr. Mayor - no more!

I'm sure those people who preceded the Hansens or their ancestors in Ballard were crying "No more!" at their arrival.
