And what exactly is the connection between those two? There are legal avenues for both.

I can understand having little respect for drug dealers as they can negatively affect communities.

But how on earth can you justify blanket-ly having no respect for the women themselves that engage in prostitution?

Well "illegal prostitution" certainly brings about things that negatively affect communities, but that's not the point I was making, nor the question I was asking you.

You said you have no respect for the WOMEN who engage in prostitution. Why?

My point about drug dealers is that I can see having no respect for the person that deals drugs as they themselves produce harm (they could sell to kids).
