I'm not sure LE needs to bother with this, or any other, web site. I think the whole thing is more about whether a certain jurisdiction wants to have these kinds of establishments operating or not. Until just a couple of years ago, and for several years before then, the Washington Post sports section was loaded with ads for places in Virginia, Maryland and the District. Does anyone thing LE missed that? Of course they knew what was going on, and the things we posted here were every bit as detailed as what people posted recently about Orange; maybe more so.
My all time favorite places were Downtown and Tanning and Massage (T&M)(in White Plains, MD). The always had the youngest, most attractive girls, and provided the best service. T&M operated for quite a while without problems, until Charles County got too many complaints from people dropping their kids at a day care located in the same strip mall. I'm not sure if they thought that someone going to T&M might also be on the prowl for little kids, or whether the little kids would be somehow bothered by the fact that men were going in and out of another business in the same strip mall. (I highly doubt that the kids knew what was going on inside T&M. I suspect it was more likely the soccer moms dropping kids off there who objected.) Wherever these places operate, LE probably won't bother them unless there are complaints. These complaints could come from other business owners who feel that these places might hurt their own business, which I find unlikely. The other source of complaints would be from the aformentioned soccer moms, or other residents, who feel that these places are not welcome.
We can speculate about how the moms might feel threatened by the fact that they are fat and unattractive to their husbands compared to the K-girls. My point is that these places advertise because they are in business to make money, and they are trying to attract customers. Secondly, politicians respond to constituents, and LE are run by politicians: in DC it's the mayor, and in Maryland and Viriginia it is the county sheriff, an elected official. The District is certainly a different place than it was just a couple of years ago. If enough people complain about something, you can be sure that some action will be taken. So it doesn't matter whther this web site goes silent or not, as others have said, the spas advertise on Craig's List and/or the City Paper, and there are always neighbors around that might complain. I would bet that the reason for the raids on Orange were the result of neighboring businesses complaining rather than anything posted on this board.
