Era Thai Raided Today

Any massage parlor that isn't part of a national chain automatically comes with the stigma of being a "jack shack".
Pile on the other factors:

Asian+1

Guys come & go looking nervous+1

Workers show up dressed provocatively+1

Reviews have little to do with it. Most raids/busts are the result of a nosey neighbor & lack of common sense.

I've sat within ear shot of a uniformed officer with a lap top open showing a "provocatively" dressed young lady who fit the common description of a rub girl one would meet in one of those "shacks" explaining to her the "secret code" used in REVIEWS and the "lingo" used by the REVIEWERS when setting appointments and her preferred responses. In other words SCHOOLING HER WITH REVIEWS.

Two tables over were 4-5 officers in raid gear having lunch.

It was at a well-known and visited casual dining facility on 1960 (with chains around town!).

So please don't try to persuade newbies reviews are USED by LE!

I need to pay more attention to reviews, I still don't know the lingo.

I can appreciate your apprehension at entertaining the thought that reviews might be source of information for LE to justify visits to the establishments in which "more" activities are happening than those authorized by the licenses on the walls of the business. But you "apprehension" is not relevant. Unfortunately, there are those who believe that "intelligence" is measured by the number of posted reviews.

I really couldn't care less, junior.

AMPs in a strip center with adjacent or very close neighbors that don't want them there, are all at risk. I would rather see a smoke shop, vape shop, anything in Spanish or Asian speaking that typically live and let live, and even a check cashing or pawn shop, you might be OK. However, if you see a struggling ma and pa stupid idea of a business (like failing cupcake shop, any specialty shop, or restaurant, or even a near by over priced LMT's that sucks in a bad way) IF they are struggling for business, they want to blame someone other than their own miserable selves. So they make complaints. That's the biggest common denominator I have seen over the many years of living around here.



Second biggest reason I have seen over the years is when ladies that were working there, get fired, they want revenge. I have seen that too. Staff turn over = pissed of revenge.. thats a big one. Funny how people say they were slaves when they get fired and ran off just like anybody else.

Yea, like a day care or across the street from a public school.

You know! All those worthless, good for nothing types of activities. Even though they were there first ... they should just move along, right? Just relocate and let the spa be? Is that your plan?

[ampguy]

hard2 has point. it happened to a amp that was next door to hair\nail salon. Most likely, they were jealous that the amp was getting a lot more business than they were...… and complained. Plus... the fact that a lot of people just like to complain about anything...…..

[LexusLover]

On the other hand, I've been in a place getting my nails worked on and they recommended a massage next door .... I guess they weren't "jealous"!
