You can regulate, but can't ban them.
I agree with that.
Speaking of which, Richardson's S.O.B. ordinance has a flaw worse than the uproar it was trying to plug with that rewrite.
I guess the plan in Rtown is to just keep things crossed real tight that more Zone d's don't visit upon here. (Or Fuzzy's type places either, in my opinion). I think they will and Rtown is not that prepared.
(At least one councilman exclaims, "This place is so cool!" I will let you do your own research regarding which place he was promoting.)
Some people think none of this is any big deal, it is just life, sex is. Let's not be hypocrites, let's be more ____ (fill in the blank. European. Open-minded?) I feel differently, so call me non cosmopolitian, call me a gun toting NIMBY, or what you will. I recently visited my birth town. It was a sad sight to see that it had a triple ex adult shop as you rolled into town, with blazing giant cartoonish displays pointing the way (which was obvious because it was right on the main road). It is not like you can immediately turn off the channel or close the browser when you and your family have to pass by to get to where you need to go, or worse, by where you stay or live. The two towns on the way in had been hit too. I am sad to see it, and more sad when a five year old says, "what is that? what's the x's spell? can we go there? ooooh, those are preetttyyy lightss!"
In balance, it doesn't make up in taxes what it costs. It doesn't add a good element or a good reason for speaking well of a town, in my opinion.
I support concealed handgun right to carry and I support concealing adult sex clubs and shops too from being left out on the public's main streets in front of our kids and those of us who don't want that "gentlemen's club" or strip club or porno shop in our faces when we use our main streets and entry portals (to speak the city planning lingo). (I definitely don't want to see it subsidized, like one club that seems okay with that type of thing in town.)
