California legalizes child prostitution!

I clicked on this figuring it was going to be something ridiculous, no way the title was accurate, and holy cow it's true.
California SB1322, prostitution laws do not apply to people under 18 years old. The excuse? To allow the kids to get treatment instead of having a record of a prostitution arrest that will follow them for the rest of their lives.

I read on one of the "kooky" sites that the pedophiles were trying to legitimize their activities, didn't believe anything could ever happen like that but here it is.

How bout leaving it illegal, and create a streamlined procedure for kids who stay out of trouble for a few years to get things removed from their record?
No good can come of this.
