Judge orders imprisonment of Brookhaven sex toy shop owner

Good. Those dens of iniquity do nothing but promote pre-marital sex and masturbation.

^^ And we all know you'll go blind from those things. Lol.

You'll shoot your eye out LOL

Is Pink Pony next?

These stupid fucking laws

The fucking damn prudes.

“Legal extortion”. I fucking Hate Organized Crime (AKA GOVERNMENT). Pricks.

So the city employs a man whose job is to count dildos??

The city says this will allow further economic development. That area is mostly old, cheap apartments and run down strip malls. Why not run THEM out of town?

He should should just let the city rule against him then appeal it. The way the judge is phrasing it its either extortion or getting rid of perceived competition for the strip club which pays fees.

He'd win the appeal.

It’s the usual government crap. His store isn’t allowed in the area, but paying more money will make it ok.

The strip club nearby is fine - as they appear to pay.

Gotta love the Moscow government officials! Oh wait - it’s Atlanta?

"illegal to operate a “sexually oriented business” near a similar business or a residential district."

This is the new generation of laws, created in the 80's, after courts had overturned the older laws in the 60's and 70's. These new laws are probably just as unconstitutional as the older ones.

One way around for a strip club is a membership club.

The laws are constitutional. The nature of the business is impacted by secondary legislation ie lewdness ordinances etc

No, courts already dumped an older generation of such prohibitions because they are free speech violations. These newer laws are made to look like they are different, but they are not.
