Guidelines for posting on bangordailynews.com

The Bangor Daily News encourages comments about stories, but you must follow our terms of service.

In brief:

1. Keep it civil and stay on topic
2. No vulgarity, racial slurs, name-calling or personal attacks.
3. People who harass others or joke about tragedies will be blocked.

The primary rule here is pretty simple: Treat others with the same respect you'd want for yourself. Here are some guidelines (see more):

It should be noted this is not a comprehensive list.

• Don't insult one another or the subjects of BDN stories. You may be ticked off at what someone did or said, but you can explain that without resorting to name-calling or obscenity. Remember that young people are on this site too.
• That nasty line that makes your buddies go "haw, haw"? You're better than that.
• Comments should be your own work, not copied and pasted from elsewhere, though brief quoted passages to make your point are fine. And please don't use all capital letters. There's no need to shout.
• Stay focused on the issue in the article. Off-topic posts will be deleted.
• This isn't a forum to chat about your personal life.
• Some ideas — the fate of the earth, abortion, gun control, the nature of God — aren't going to be resolved in a reader forum, so no need to get frustrated if others don't see your point of view. State your position once and leave it at that.
• If you mouse over each comment you will see a "Flag" button. Please use it if you feel comments on the site are out of line. Quite often, we won't see a comment until it's reported.
• Questions about why a comment was — or wasn't — deleted? E-mail us at web@bangordailynews.com and let us know your username and where you posted or saw the comment.

That's about it: Stick to writing about the stories; be civil; be kind; enlighten your neighbors. And we'll keep moderating posts to try to ensure everyone meets those standards.

  you’re an idiot….consensual sex would mean nobody paying….obviously these women (no matter how trashy) wouldn’t have sex with these men for free….therefore not consensual….ps most women who resort to this line of work didn’t say….i wanna grow up and be a prositute…not really a choice ya know.

  Waste of resources….If someone gives there spouse an STD does it matter if its from cheating with a  prostitute or a neighbor?  Somethings are not the states business and using that as rationalization for busting consenting adults is ridiculous.

  Hello, prostitution is illegal!  And I think that any wife would be more insulted by her husband going to a prostitute than having an affair- with or without the STD.  Yes, it is worse.   An affair with a neighbor resulting in an STD, I’d leave him – and STD from a prostitute – I’d castrate him.

  To Beth Brogan (the reporter):
  Could you do a follow up, and report exactly how many “man hours” were involved in this?

  I’m not just talking about “the sting”. I’m talking about everything, from the start of the initial investigation, court proceedings, etc…. I would love to see exactly how   much this whole thing is costing  the tax payer.

  With that many departments involved I’m sure they have spent $1000′s  upon $1000′s  of OUR money already. The spending of OUR money is not even close to being over.

  Consider EVERY PENNY spent on this. Man hours, renting motel rooms, fuel, processing everyone through jail, cell phone bills, paid meals for investigators, overtime, court cost, all the way down to the ink and paper used, and even the cost of their  mug shots.

  I have no idea of  the true cost, but for arguments sake, lets just agree that $15,000 is a very Conservative number.

  Now, disregard your opinion on whether prostitution is wrong/right and ask yourself this….Is this whole “bust” worth $15,000 of OUR money?

  That’s $15,000 of OUR money spent to protect us from what?

I am so proud that I live in a state that will spend my tax dollars on such a worthwhile endeavor. Forget the bath salts, remember the harlots.

  I hope you might profit, JohnInBrewer and certain others posting here, from a sincere reading of John 8 (KJV). You don’t even have to be a Christian. In fact I’m not really one myself but I do believe certain truths, such as the one exemplified here, hold across humankind:  

  1Jesus went unto the mount of Olives. 
  2And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them. 
  3And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 
  4They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 
  5Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou? 
  6This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. 
  7So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her. 
  8And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 
  9And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst. 
  10When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee? 
  11She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

   Exactly.  Look at the places that have legalized prostitution… related crimes are down and STDs are under control.

  But if we did that in the good old Christian States of America, we’d be “promoting and condoning sin”… yet another example of the righteous right and their “less government involvement”.

  so glad they are spending money stop men from paying for sex,  wonder when they will start arresting men for taking women out to dinner and a movie before sex?  Wait wait prostitution is illegal i thought when they made things illegal it stopped people from doing it.   Wouldn’t it be nice if we just taxed it, save money on vice squad and make extra tax money.    Maybe more officers on the bath salts and less on the sex might reduce the number of bath salt stories

  STDs are NOT “under control” in those areas, they are controled in the people that legally register and get tested. There are still many illegal prostitutes in those areas that are spreading disease and are being held against their will.

  Wherever there is legal prostitution, there is alos a lot of ILLEGAL prostitution. People go to prostitutes for the sexual and mental thrill of doing something illicit. If regular prostitution is legal, then the envelope gets pushed further and you end up with sex slaves and child prostitution (not that we don’t have a lot of that already, but in Nevada and countries where it is legal, it is even worse.

  I have been to the Netherlands. It was very nice, although seeing prostitutes in the open was rather strange (and they are not really my thing, but to each his own — I was there on business).  The only crime people worry about are pickpockets in very crowded touristy areas.  Other countries with legal regulated prostitution include Germany, Australia, Austria, Switzerland.  Not exactly hell holes.  Many other countries such as the UK, France, Spain, and Italy have non-regulated prostitution (brothels are illegal, as is soliciting, but paying for sex is not).

  I have seen you post before and have agreed with things you said, but this time I respectfully have to disagree.  Your relationships should not be the governments business.  I respect your right to choose your partner and have a monogamous relationship.  If your partner chooses to cheat that is a problem for the two of you.  

  If a john is worried about STD’s than he/she shouldn’t use a prositute.  If a spouse is worried than find someone that will be faithful.  I don’t see how prostitution has any thing to do with whether or not your partner cheats on you.  If someone is going to cheat they will find a way, prostitute or not.  Sleeping around is your choice,  no one is saying otherwise.  Furthermore what you say could be applied to anyone that sleeps around, not just people that take money for it.  I have a known a few women and men that have slept with hundreds of people, they didn’t do it for money, but by your logic they should be arrested.

  If a john is worried about STD’s than he/she shouldn’t use a prositute.  If a spouse is worried than find someone that will be faithful.  I don’t see how prostitution has any thing to do with whether or not your partner cheats on you.  If someone is going to cheat they will find a way, prostitute or not.  Sleeping around is your choice,  no one is saying otherwise.  Furthermore what you say could be applied to anyone that sleeps around, not just people that take money for it.  I have a known a few women and men that have slept with hundreds of people, they didn’t do it for money, but by your logic they should be arrested.

  Its because Maine is not taxing it–In Maine, if its not taxed–its illegal. Maine is the worst state on squeezing money out of its residents on ridiculas taxes. Example?-What the hell is registering a canoe all about? Millfoil stickers? in northern Maine? we dont even have Millfoil.

  Yadda yadda yadda.  What happened to personal responsibility?  Tobacco is legal, alcohol is legal.  Loud music is legal.  None of those affect just the user.  You can’t legislate morality, no matter how hard you try.

  You just made my own case for me.  If you want to sleep around, it SHOULD be your choice.  If you chose to do so as a way to make a living, it should be your choice.

  which is technically illegal. there is not a huge difference between the UK and the US (excluding Nevada) when it comes to prostitution. But can you explain how Germany, the Netherlands, Australia (some states), Switzerland, and Austria are hell holes because they have legal regulated brothels? I would say it is less of a problem in those countries.

  Paying for sex? So what! Thats a deal between the women and the man.  Consensual sex is  agreeing, or consenting, to whatever sexual activity is occurring. It could be in exchange for rent, money. or just used as a tool to get what ever someone wants from the other. I’ve never had to pay with cash for sex, But I can understand why some men would.  There are lots of women that are looking for sex, I beleave every one wants sex. I think people have let religion  beliefs dictate there sex lives, it’s to bad, All we all want to do is —-!

  “Australia doesnt count.  The female to male ratio is really high,  but in countries like that, (if) you want drugs they have them.  Crime in the country isn’t high,  but the areas the brothels are in,  help support drugs, and there is a spike in slavery there.”

  Hmm, lets follow your liberal logic of “there ought to be a law” protecting us from our own decisions a little further.

  Consensual sex, for money or not, can cause infection.  Consentual sex, for money or not, between homosexuals is a primary source of AIDS.  So, given your logic and desire to control others private decisions for the greater good, shouldn’t non-marital, monogamous, consensual sex and same sex coitus be outlawed as well?  Hmm.

  How does that logical result fit with your liberal, government knows best philosophy?

  Consensual sex, for money or not, can cause infection.  Consentual sex, for money or not, between homosexuals is a primary source of AIDS.  So, given your logic and desire to control others private decisions for the greater good, shouldn’t non-marital, monogamous, consensual sex and same sex coitus be outlawed as well?  Hmm.

  How does that logical result fit with your liberal, government knows best philosophy?

  Ifind the story interesting, four women are mentioned but only three are pictured; only one woman seems to be linked with any of the men who appears to have been her pimp, and other men were johns that were picked up through a sting that was only related to the story by prostitution. They seem to be different cases.

  Is this correct?

  @Mak76:disqus  Put simply so you will hopefully understand. The countries that have “legalized” and regulated prostitution and drugs have seen a dramatic decline in STD’s and crimes involving drugs… THAT’S IT !…..

  I look at it this way, if I went out and bought a corvette for the purposes of picking up women, isn’t that also trading money for sex? If I buy a gym membership to improve my appearance (for the purposes of picking up women), isn’t that trading money (as well as time) for sex as well? If sex is the goal, then at least with a prostitute you can avoid all the BS and get straight to the point. Government has NO right whatsoever telling me who I can sleep with or why.

  That’s a look of anguish, my friend.

  Todd was probably out looking for a little Lewinsky, not the whole package. Now his career as a CPA, his family unit, and everything he has worked for his whole life may disappear faster than the fifty bucks he was going to shell out.

  I’m not sure if the punishment fits the crime in a case like this. We are, after all, mere mortals, subject to human lapses in judgement. I hope the sheriffs are pleased with themselves.

  This Scripture applies to the Old testament law that BOTH parties would be stoned for their sin. Vs 4 indicates they were caught in the ‘very act’ but the woman stands alone.  All who participate in her stoning would be false witnesses. Perhaps she was condemned by herself to protect the reputation of a community official, who knows? The point is that the folks she was in the midst of were only using the part of the Law that suited their purposes not the whole Law of God. Thankfully we are now under Gracewhich gives us all the opportunity to repent and be forgiven.

  But you also need to understand that its a necessity to look down on this behavior. As the article states one of these guys brought a disease home to his wife in the past, so its not just these guys that are ruined but their entire families feel the pain. Sure on a personal level they still require love and understanding but sometimes certain people are to be made an example of. Humiliation is a pretty good punishment. But I recognize what you are saying and agree to an extent, hopefully these people can learn from this and change their ways, and this can be a deterrent to others thinking about doing the same thing.

  The majority of men out there have paid for sex and don’t even realize it. It starts with dinner, a movie, a night out, a hotel rental, gas to get around, flowers, cards. Does this mean the state can come in and take over? I guess you might have to arrest 80 percent of the male population based on this law. lol.
