To be entirely honest, I'm a pretty marginalized person myself and I'd feel a lot safer with a firearm myself. That doesn't in any way justify the utter lack of restrictions though.

That's not my problem with his post. My problem is that he took a joke so seriously and honestly attempted to threadjack this into a gun control debate over a post on the first page.

If she left his home right after he paid her, I can see why it is considered theft since she didn't provide "companionship" for the time agreed upon, but she's not legally obligated to engage in sexual intercourse with him. He should've taken her to a small claims court, and I think shooting her was definitely excessive.

If he wanted a gaurantee of sexual intercourse for money (Legally in the US), he should've went to some kind of legal brothel in Nevada.

That being said, he should've also looked up any reviews she might have had on those escort review sites I hear about. I'm pretty sure if she did that same thing to other people, she would have multiple negative reviews. People are more likely to rate something at all if they've had a negative experience versus a positive one.

Yeah I think the shooter was definitely in the wrong, and I do agree that the escort should've also known the risk she was taking by going into someone's house who was probably armed and running off with their money. Being an escort is to take part in a risky business, with clients who could potentially be very dangerous. She should've known better about what she was getting herself into.

A .38 revolver with +P rounds will do just fine. And it's a very good conceal carry firearm for both genders.

As for "lack of restrictions", that depends what lack of restrictions your referring to.

Maybe. If the police weren't complete idiots, they wouldn't. They would instead, arrest the guy for attempting to engage in prostitution.

And the girl for robbery. Being a phone hooker doesn't exempt you from being punished for commiting crimes.

She didn't commit a crime. She would have if she would have had sex for money.

He paid her for time spent together. Then, she left, having felt she did her job. Next, he shot her in the neck because he thought he had paid for sex.

I read EVERYTHING not anything. If she didn't give her services then she robbed him, not that it makes shooting her justified, but yet if she did had sex with him then she'd still would have committed a crime. Avoiding illegal activity doesn't justify commiting a different crime.

And since she didn't commit a crime, this is irrelevant. Look, I'm not going to waste my time repeating things that have ALREADY been said because you're too lazy to read. So, here:

Yes, it does. It contains the necessary information to back up MY claim, not what you WANT me to be claiming.
Des-Bal wrote:3. Given my entire question is ABOUT the money from illegal transactions it requires that prostitution not be legal in texas.

Then there should be no problem with admitting that I'm correct. Illegal contracts are by default, void. It is therefore NOT a legitimate contract. Therefore, if you give someone money WILLINGLY, DESPITE assuming they were fulfill a part of an illegal contract, they are under NO obligation to give BACK your payment, because the contract is void in the first place.

Giving someone money of your own free will when there is no legitimate contract stating they must provide a service means that you are giving that money to them as a GIFT, and they have every right to keep it.
Des-Bal wrote:The goalposts are where they've always been you're running in the wrong direction.

Because I actually have a basic grasp of jurisprudence?

Mavorpen wrote:
Des-Bal wrote:You say that money offered to one party in exchange for an illegal service belongs to that party. Please deliver the specific laws supporting your claim.

No, what I'm saying is that if you engage in an illegal contract and one of the parties breaks the contract, then courts cannot and should not be enforcing this contract in the first place. This means that legally she had every right to take money that was GIVEN to her. If SHE took it from HIS hands without his consent, then you'd have a better point.

Mavorpen wrote:
Des-Bal wrote:Except the only agreement made was to exchange money for sex.

Assuming this bullshit is true, then that's not a legal contract and she still could have taken the money anyway because it was GIVEN to her of his own free will.

This isn't complicated at all.

Seriously though. This just baffles. And backs up my low opinion of our supposed 'justice' system. Yes, this one is more blatant, but you see asshattery throughout and oft-discussed on this very forum. There has got to be a way to inject a touch of common sense (I know, I know, all too uncommon these days) into some of this. Into every aspect of our society, while we're at it.


Here's my REALLY REALLY BIG problem with this. Ignoring Texas' obscene law that makes it legal to use DEADLY FORCE to recover a hundred and fifty bucks, the underlying transaction itself was illegal. If he "gave her money" to have sex with him, he engaged in solicitation of prostitution. Since you can not, legally, give someone money in exchange for sex, what he did, legally, was give her money for nothing.

Which means he just GAVE her money.

Which means it wasn't STEALING anything.

From the looks of things it seems the guy wanted sex. Escorts can be hired to perform sexual services too.

No, they can't. That's ILLEGAL. They can provide sex as a bonus OUTSIDE of the money paid if they choose so.
