If you go to Craigslist for a locality, and look for the Adult Services section in its normal place, you instead see a stark black-and-white "censored" message.

About time...

Funny, sort of, I guess.

If you dont want/like something, dont look. What's wrong with that?

Seems a bit strange that we allow these kinds of ads in our local papers (at least in major metropolitan areas) yet we don't want to see them on the internet ... Craigslist was doing nothing illegal.

What do you care, jeez!
I guess just knowing it existed was disturbing your delicate sensibilities huh?

You are implying that you thought there was something dirty about it. By whose measure?

put all the pervs in jail. bring back the birch and the cat o nine tails. bring back corporal punishment. bring back the stocks and the axeman's block. let righteousness prevail.

What the hell is wrong with a comfort lady now and then? I watched Cops last night, they were doing a prostitution sting by using a lady cop to lure men into their trap. My thoughts are the cops a hunting over a baited field and that's just wrong. I am willing to bet with Cl shuting the door that escort ads in the newspapers will soar. God Bless the USA.

I'm actually fed up with all the scammers on Craigslist. I have posted several items recently and have responses from people to the tune of "is item still for sale". They don't even know what I'm selling, just waiting for me to reply to divulge my email address so they can sell it to spammers. It's getting hard to determine who is legit and who is not. That's why I try to post on this forum...it's a small community and spammers/fakes get noticed and ousted quickly here.

I always tell clients if a "hooker" is attractive is enough to stop on a street corner it is an undercover cop.
