Hookers Need Homes Too

I wonder if Ashley Alexandre Dupre ever took out a loan to buy a home or paid her taxes. And if so, would she have used ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now), the nation’s largest grassroots community organization of low--and moderate--income people. Probably not… she was too high end. But not all prosties can say the same.

Today the Post, in an article called "‘Pimp & hooker’ catch B’klyn staff,” scolded ACORN for offering advice—"Don't say that you're a prostitute thing or whatever"—to low-income hookers looking for mortgages and counseling on taxes.

“Rather than reminding the women," the Post said, "that prostitution is dangerous and illegal and advising them to change their careers, counselors at the social-services group shockingly offer suggestions on how they can launder their earnings.” But seriously, do you think they would have listened if the counselor simply said, “You know you shouldn’t be doing it.” Plus, they want to pay taxes for Christ's sake! Has anyone seen our our 11.4-trillion-dollar national debt lately? Get all the hookers paying taxes (and having health insurance, oversight, etc.) and perhaps things will start looking up.

This is sick, why would anybody with any type of morals use ACORN.

If you're saying the only way to help someone who has fallen into a life of prostitution is by lying and cheating to the IRS, thus enabling them to further themselves down that horrible, degrading road - then I say you're part of the problem. There's no doubt these people need help, but this kind of help?? Are you kidding me? "Here ya go, take this tax payer money and set up your sex trade, we're just trying to help out.." No way... when you "help them out" by showing them how to lie and cheat to get what they need to set up their illegal sex trade and everything else, you legitamize it for everyone else looking for the easy route in life - thus ensuring the cycle to NEVER be broken.

Wait just a second. You think it is OK for someone to bring in 13 year old girls into this country to become sex slaves as long as they pay taxes? Shane you are one sick and twisted puppy. It is sad what you will forgive to defend this criminal organization.

he ‘hooker’ part wasn’t the worst part (which is why you are focusing on it). The human trafficking, pedophilia enabling was the worst part. There is no excuse to defend or even enable that. It is sick and highly illegal. It is modern day slavery and ACORN was enabling it.
