San Francisco, the city the Fundies love to hate......
The American Family Association's San Francisco obsession continues. :rofl:


from the AFA's OneNewsNow:



San Francisco to vote on prostitution prosecution
Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 8/17/2008 4:00:00 AM


Some San Francisco residents want to use a backdoor approach to permit prostitution.

Petitioners have succeeded in getting a measure on the November ballot that would ban prosecution of prostitution cases. Brad Dacus, founder of the Pacific Justice Institute, says that is a clear breech of public trust.

"This is going back several hundred years and not going forward," he argues. "And it's an insult to the dignity of humanity -- and particularly, the dignity of women."

The proposal would also ban the San Francisco police department from allocating funds for the investigation and prosecution of sex workers. "The laws in California, on their face, prohibit prostitution," explains Dacus. "It's a criminal act. This is just another attempt by the city of San Francisco to usurp the law."

If the measure passes, Dacus believes the attorney general ought to file suit against the city. It is believed the proposal would also hamper prosecution of cases in which women have been brought to America from foreign countries and forced into prostitution.
