RentBoy raid fiercely criticized

CEO of RentBoy
 
RentBoy.com CEO Jeffery Hurant, who was arrested this week along with six employees at RentBoy's home offices in New York City, has yet to make an official statement on the raid of his company's headquarters. When approached by reporters, he would only say, "I don't think that we do anything to promote prostitution. I think we do good things for good people, and we bring good people together."
 
People in the porn biz, understandably, had something to say:
 
 
And Florida attorney and South Florida Gay News editor Norm Kent has added his voice to the growing criticism of the arrests, characterizing the affair as a "national disgrace."
 
He said:
Is that why we mobilized a federal agency to combat international terrorism? To use those ass-ets to targets boy’s ass-es? Our nation, our government, those prosecutors should be so ashamed of themselves. It is unconscionable, unbelievable, and almost surreal.
Some people want to buy couches; other people cocks. Deal with it. The matter is not for you to judge. Adult men seeking masseurs and escorts should have that unfettered right. Rentboy.com provided the Internet a vehicle wherein consenting adults made free choices.
 
If there is a story here, it is not about gay men seeking hookups. It is about a national security agency so misdirecting its energies, efforts, and equipment that we should all be astonished and appalled.
We couldn't have said it better ourselves!
