Police from the 76th Precinct arrested seven “horndogs” last Saturday night on the “slimy corner” of Butler and Nevins streets in Boerum Hill for soliciting sex from undercover cops posed as prostitutes. As the Brooklyn Paper points out, each of the johns were caught in the same way every time, as if taking their cue from Talking Heads: they’d roll up to the corner in their car and throw out a price, ensuring their arrest for solicitation, a misdemeanor. BP lists the details of each bust, including one man who “lightly injured” an officer, as well as the (seemingly) stingy prices each offered (which ranged from $10 for oral sex to $28 for intercourse). Police have nabbed 20 men as part of “Operation Losing Proposition” on that corner alone.
These johns should really do their research though; if they had, they’d know that the Butler/Nevins corner has been targeted by cops for months now. The “roach motel for would-be johns” has been yielding monthly prosecutions since at least this past January; five men, including one bearing flowers, were busted in April alone.
“Operation Losing Proposition” dates back even farther, to January 1991, which must make it the longest lasting undercover police operation in the city not to utilize old “Reliable.”

I’ll think about it, but I’m not inclined to take it back.
CH has taken it upon herself to make running comments about the personality of a number of posters on this site. Rob, Lech and myself are her usual targets. Note that I said their personality, not their posts. She continues to try to paint this picture of me as a person whose view on everything is fueld by some type of bitterness, and it goes beyond teasing.
benson, although I vowed to avoid fighting in the OT ever again, I agree with Biff’s 3:47. And since below the belt is eye level for me, I’m in a position to know.
I’m all for good old fashioned ribbing (I didn’t say “rimming” DIBS) but Benson, your comment to Cobble did hit below the belt. She was clearly teasing before but your response was cruel.
Alright, I’ll apologize for saying the words “unemployed slacker”. Below the belt.
My comments about CH in my 3.54 post remain, however.
whoa, the Ho’s in boerum hill are mad cheap!!!

And a “pleasant journey to you, Mrs. Haines”.
I’m going to have to agree with Biff.
I just read them “The Giving Tree.” That book is mad sad.
I have to run off to a conference at 4:00.
“Please don’t talk about me when I’m gone.”
