About three dozen people who identified themselves as sex workers and illegal vendors rallied along Queen’s seedy “Market of Sweethearts” Tuesday, calling on cops to turn down the heat so they can make a living.
“I proudly call myself a hooker with a 401K,” said consultant and sex worker Victoria Von Blaque, who urged the cops and the city to “stop trying to play Captain Save a Hoe.“I went out and got a job, I had the education,” she said. “But because we live in a world that will deny human beings the simple right, no matter how qualified they are, to equal employment and treatment with health care that affirms us — a lot of us are forced back to the streets.
Democrats quietly panic over Harris campaign strategy as 'Blue Wall' crumbles: ‘They are just not thinking’“My secondary job is a sex worker,” Blaque said. “Why? Because we live in New York City. Where else do you know where you can live and you have to make over $100,000 to be considered working class or just making it? So if you don’t want us to be sex workers, give us resources that we actually want and need.”“I have been discriminated against in the streets,” she said.
Asked about the Venezuelan migrant gang Trend de Aragua’s involvement in illegal activity on the strip — as law enforcement sources contend — protest leaders declined to comment.
