1. Prostitution is legal in only 1 state; Nevada. Puerto Rico is not a state. It's not "quasi-legal" anywhere. It's legal or it isn't. And in Nevada, fewer and fewer counties are allowed to have it because Mormons run the state.
2. Marijuana is legal according to some states, but is legal in far more places in Europe than it is here and Europe is what you are claiming is being overrun with Muslims. In fact Prostitution is legal in more places in Europe than America and so are other drugs. 3. Europe also has 10 times the number of topless beaches of America. 4. Newspapers in Europe can also lampoon Mohammed, but they will be ridiculed, and verbally attacked by Muslims in the same way a cartoon of Jesus blowing a donkey would be attacked by Christians in America. 5. I don't recognize that there is such a thing as Islamo-facism other in the fevered and twisted imagination of bigots and racists. But even it did exist and were prevailent in Europe, it would not be up to America to do anything to stop it. It would be up to the Europeans. America has our own problems dealing with fundamentalist Christians who attack our social freedoms 10,000 times more than Muslims do. --- In [email protected], "Eric Dondero Rittberg" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Let's see now, prostitution is completely legal in two states of the > United States; Nevada and Puerto Rico.
