Suit Opposes Ohio's Ridiculous Obscenity Law
XBiz | Submitted by: ferret
"The woman, identified only as G.B. in the suit, is afraid, Sirkin said, because under the current law, if she sells something at the store that is decided to be obscene -- even years later -- the law requires her to register as a sex offender for 15 years."

That's bullshit. Legislators ought to be shot in the head and fucked in the resulting hole. Stupid assholes.

goyle - that's obscene pandering, right there. 12 months in the pokey for you, and another 15 years living under a bridge. It's bad enoough that Walsh has capitalized so handsomely on his son's death over the years, now his crusade has turned into a puritanical witch-hunt.

since no one can come up with a wholely agreed upon definition of obscene for legal prosecution...ie: 'This' is, 'That' is not, this portion of that law should be thrown out. besides, with the availability of anything sexual available via the internet (delivered right to your front door in inconspicuous wrapping) why is this even an issue any more? also, how soon do you think it will be before all of the private schools will send someone to the Hustler store (who isn't already a secret patron and can't tell without getting outted themselves) and find out who the manager is and boot out her kids from the school? Way to go with the Annominity there fellas!

Horrific crimes are bad enough on their own, but anyone who makes themselves famous by selling fear on a weekly basis is far worse.

Stupid assholes. ----------------------- Good idea, just one catch.....who are you gonna get to fuck that resulting hole? If I had a penis, I wouldn't want to stick in some politician's gooey, bullet-ridden brain. That would just be gross. I could, however, be convinced to poke that resulting hole with a pointy stick.

Can't you see his gay producer saying something like:  Who's a sexy bitch? Who's a sexy bitch? It's you John! It's you. Yes you are. One sexy bitch. Yes you are -- One sexy bitch, John.

Bella There is this thing called the Usenet and newsgroups. I am willing to bet there is a fetish group there that partakes such a thing.

That does it. No more working at the hardware store and selling hand tools. Those vice grips make great nipple clamps so I'm told.

Next they'll go after folks who look at porn on the 'net. Looks like we might as well just save ourselves the trouble and go on down and register with the local constabulary.

Adam Walsh law? Pandering obscenity? Since when does one consenting adult selling something obscene to another consenting adult involve the kidnap, rape and murder of a child? These two things are unrelated. Just another example of brand extension. "Whoring my dead son's name for attention, it's not just for child rapists anymore!" Fuck that guy and his Nazi-esque laws. I'm sorry your kid is dead, but I can't see how my not being allowed to buy a dildo will help you feel better about that.

British born, from Jewish Nazi-Germany-refugee parents who emigrated to Queens NY by the time Jerry was 5, yes. Elected to Cincinnati City Council in 1971, and forced to resign in 1974 for fucking a prostitute. Boy, the web is fun.

Even if the product is LATER determined to be obscene? WTF? That's cRaZy! Imagine all the people who'd end up being arrested for all of the non-obscene goods and services they sold before what constituted "obscenity" was inevitably reinterpreted? This reduces Ohio's rule of law to ad-hocracy.

Retroactive laws cannot work unless the basis of the constitution is wiped out. They were hoping and gambling on this. Sounds like a good Fed lawsuit too. Go for it.

I bought a car with a back seat. What if someone declares it a sex-enabling device later on? What about the bed I sleep on? Ohio...It could happen. I gas up in Pa. and hope to make Indiana, just so I do not have to stop there.
