Mo. Supreme Court upholds strip club restrictions

By The Associated Press

Tuesday, November 15, 2011

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) â€” The Missouri Supreme Court has upheld a 2010 state law imposing restrictions on strip clubs and other sexually oriented businesses.

In a unanimous decision Tuesday, the court rejected claims from the adult entertainment industry that the law infringed on free expression rights and was passed in violation of legislative procedures.

The court said there was enough evidence to support the Legislature's belief that the restrictions served a government interest in minimizing negative effects from sexually oriented businesses

The law requires sexually themed businesses to close by midnight. It also bans full nudity, alcohol, minors and touching between semi-nude employees and customers.

The Supreme Court's ruling affirms a prior decision by a Cole County judge.

If they are not semi-nude, it appears that none of these new laws will apply.

Dancers doing lap dances in loose-fitting running shorts and halter tops might be fun actually.

I once got a lap dance from a dancer wearing sweat pants and sweat shirt but she was commando. It was different. It was fun. It had a happy ending.
