Our friends are back rousting AMPS

[phantom11]

There is always a demand for amps, its like the war on drugs you aint doing shit.

Basic fundamentals of supply and demand, i mean if you close one, one may pop out somewhere else, it might change or go underground a bit, but a similar service will always be available

Have wonder if this is nationwide. Some favorite haunts in Honolulu got raided as well. Given the fast-food-row type set up of the joints near Bali I'm shocked they were allowed to operate at all.

Open sign off at Luxury and Bali.

The only recent news story I can find is one referring to a place called Harmony.

Strange. Usually, they like to trumpet arrests, for PR and deterrence purposes.

Luxury being closed was news to me. Other than the two I posted, the rest have their signs on.

Don't speak so fast. Look at what happened to Houston. Just as good and some would even say even better than Dallas in the strip clubs if not the amp scene. Now? Someone would have to pay me to go to a strip club in Houston and the amps are not even what you would consider a real amp but just barely better than a suburban amp. Don't underestimate the bible thumping religion should be the basis of law types, they love to get laws passed and people elected that will in the name of business and cleaning things up will shut stuff down. Houston is a crazy, ghetto wheels off city that you would expect fun, wild SCs and AMPs everywhere. Not anymore.

So is Bali permanently closed? I also think the cop won't be trumpeting their own horn for a while since the police chief is getting major push back for her record and from others within the department for just how she has completely screwed up.

I was bored today so I took a drive by all of the major AMPs that I'm aware of. All of them except Bali appeared to be open and some looked quite busy. I did notice that there appeared to be some kind of document stuck to the door at Bali, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. It might have been a legal notice, or maybe it was just a delivery notice from FedEx... I didn't get out to read it; I'm not that brave.

I do think it's kind of strange that if anyone knows anything they aren't saying. Some of the guys here say that they get phone numbers from some of the girls, so if any of them have heard any inside info they don't seem to be talking.
