Comments on: So. Carolina eyes 'criminal investigation' of Craigslist

The attorney general's office says Craigslist continues to display prostitution ads and graphic porn, so it must launch an investigation and "potential prosecution."

Attorney General Henry McMaster strikes me as bullying fool with a law degree.

Frankly, I find his crusade against CraigsList prostitution advertising to be shameless self-promotion, and a violation of church and state separation (imposition of his religious morality on everyone who desires to use CL for sexual services).

I can give it away for free, I can give it away for barter, but I can't sell it in exchange for any form of currency. Banning prostitution (and advertising for it) doesn't pass the common sense test, certainly isn't evidence-based law, definately against the fundamentals of most religions where temple prostitution (or its equivalent) had an honored place in society, is a waste of taxpayer's dollars, and is totally ineffective.
