Seven 9-1-1 calls

Last night the La Crosse Tribune confirmed Fox News’ report that Ron Kind made tens of thousands of dollars in rental income from a massage parlor featured on RubMaps, which USA Today described as “Yelp for sex spas.”

According to the Tribune, one advertisement promoted the grand opening of the salon on April 18, 2018, on BodyRubsMaps, a site that self-describes itself as “the best alternative” to Backpage, a former website that was seized by the federal government in 2018 for serving as a marketplace for buying and selling sex.

TV News station WKTB also obtained City of La Crosse police records to see if the department has received any complaints about the business.

In the time since the massage business opened in May of 2018, police have responded to seven calls to its address.

Finally, Breitbart News obtained photos of the business.

The front door of the massage parlor features a female who appears to be naked.

Ron Kind’s response: Anyone who asks questions about this business is racist.
