Sex workers, business owners, and residents from De Wallen, the neighborhood in Amsterdam that includes the Red Light District, marched to City Hall on Thursday afternoon in protest against a proposal to shut dozens of windows used by sex workers. Instead, the city wants to open an erotic center outside of the city center with about a hundred placements for sex workers.

    Yeah, you can do that, but it doesn’t make you look smart or even informed on the article you’re commenting on, it just makes you look like a dumbass.

        No law against playing poker without looking at your cards. Chances are you’ll loose.

        Your choice. Same with assuming what a topic is and arguing straw men.
