and only a Republican could have come up with the idea.

Find a suspicious lady standing on a corner with condoms in her purse? Take away the condoms and SPREAD AIDS. Yeah, good thinking.

Any sex worker who is found carrying condoms should be given a reverse fine, stop in at the courthouse and pick up twenty bucks as a thank you for keeping it safe.

I am glad some prosecutors are taking the lead in this.

in an attempt to try to beat some sense into them.

How frigging stupid can they get?

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) -- New York City spends more than a million dollars every year to distribute free condoms to combat unintended pregnancies and diseases such as AIDS. Yet city police are allowed to confiscate those very condoms as evidence of prostitution.

That conflict is behind the latest legislative proposal to make New York the first state to prohibit condoms -- specifically the existence of multiple condoms -- from being used as evidence in prostitution cases, a widespread practice that advocates say undermines decades of public health goals.

"There may be no actual evidence, and the condom is their only way to trying to prove it," said Hawk Kinkaid, a former male escort who now advocates on their behalf in New York City. "The fear that this will be used against you -- it prevents people from being able to protect themselves."

The practice has come under criticism across the country, with prosecutors in San Francisco, Brooklyn and Nassau County in suburban New York City announcing last year they will no longer use condoms as evidence in prostitution cases.
