Great post!!! There are number of lawyer for generating business. I think Craiglist should be prosecuted as a pimp because they provided prostitutes the venue to sell themselves, then he needs to do the same thing with the city street department since they provided the ‘avenue’ from which the street-walkers sell their wares, hence they are facilitators using the AG’s logic.
