Gordon Bombay would be disgusted to see what's happened to his beautiful Minneapolis.

This is really the important part here. I come across so many people that advocate for little/no government interference in people's lives relative to allowing them to do whatever they want on social issues but then turn around and advocate for social programs and safety nets. Pick one or the other; freedom or a safety net but you don't get to do whatever you want to do if it means forcing someone else to pay for you when the consequences arrive.

Half the queers that go to those bathhouses are "straight" married men.

Since when does “bathhouse” mean whorehouse?
I always thought a bathhouse was just a public sauna

O.k., but reasonable people can disagree about what constitutes "over reach."

But that's not what this is about. This is about where and when the consensual banging is being done.
We're talking about places that—although they are privately owned businesses—they are open to the public. It's not like someone holding an orgy on their personal property where you have to be invited to be there. That's an additional layer of privacy/exclusivity.
I used to be a lot more libertarian about these sorts of things myself. But the older I have gotten, the more I see:
1. The deleterious effect they have on society. The government upholding something like this is not a psychologically neutral action. It has an effect on people's perceptions of it. Obama knew this, which is why he lit up the White House in rainbow colors when the SCOTUS passed down Obergfell.
2. The legitimate interest the community has in protecting property values, etc.
In this case, just my opinion, but I don't think a community telling people that if they want to have anonymous and/or group sex they need to do it in the privacy of their own homes is a government encroachment of individual freedom.

"We will accept bathhouses, but they will not be co-ed"
"We will accept co-ed bathhouses, but they will monitored"
"Co-ed bathhouses won't be monitored, but we will not allow sex"
"We will allow sex, but only co-ed sex"
"We will allow all sex, but we don't want the Irish"
We all know where this ends.

Exactly. This is gonna hurt the cheap motel business. There are some that actually rent rooms by the hour at a lower price.

I’m just tired of the left co-opting words to mean things other than their definition.
If they called it a whorehouse instead of a bathhouse they would receive less public support

Well Tim is about to retire. He has to have some place to go and something to do in his free time. Never fear though. I’m sure these bathhouses will have an ample supply of tampons with a nice big full wall painting of George Floyd.

I don’t care what adults do. Make it a private club and do whatever you want. Leave the kids alone.

You're overstating the case and I suspect it's intentional for a combination of shock value and your continual commitment to troll/be contentious just for the sake of it.
Sexual activity in the colonies varied widely depending upon where (and when) we're talking about. Yes, brothels operated openly in cities. Yes, there was homosexual activity, especially in more rural areas where men settlers greatly outnumbered women. Yes, pre and extra martial sex was not uncommon.
But there were also laws with actual legal penalties against all of those things and other than the brothels, which the law in big cities turned a blind eye to, they could be used against citizens who engaged in these practices.
It was kind of like speeding. They might pick you out among 10 other cars going the same speed that they ignored.
And just like speeding, the threat of that kind of enforcement wasn't a total deterrent, but it was some significant deterrent. Remember, Boston was the largest colonial city and it only had 16,000 residents in 1760. Only five cities had populations of over 10,000 people by the Revolutionary War.
And if you weren't living in one of those five major cities (which was over 90% of the colonists), you were probably living in a community so small that everyone knew everyone else.
Think Walnut Grove.
How much debauchery do you think would have been possible in a small community like that?

You do know that insurance is a risk pool? HIV treatment is expensive and is normies pick up the tab for this shite.

Why a place like Minneapolis? Vegas would be much more appropriate. How the hell has that city not legalized prostitution?

This is already happening in other major cities. Minneapolis is late to the game.
