Ice fishing leads to prostitution, according to Ohio mayor – By Russia Today Newsroom (Russia Today) / February 11, 2022
Hudson Mayor Craig Shubert suggests allowing shanties for fishing to be set up could lead to illegal activities
The mayor of Hudson, Ohio has suggested that allowing people to set up ice shanties for fishing could somehow lead to prostitution, during a city council meeting on Tuesday.
The Hudson City Council in Ohio was discussing whether ice fishing should be allowed in public parks, with officials debating the various dangers that could arise from the practice. While some raised concerns about people falling through the ice, arguing that allowing the pastime could put an additional strain on paramedics, police, and firefighters, Mayor Craig Shubert suggested that ice fishing could lead to a completely different issue – prostitution.
“Does someone come back next year and say I want an ice shanty on Hudson Springs Park for X amount of time?” Shubert asked in a video recording of the meeting that has since gone viral. “And if you then allow ice fishing with shanties, then that leads to another problem. Prostitution. Now you’ve got the police chief and the police department involved.”
