Lap Dances Not Protected by First Amendment

When lap dances are outlawed, only outlaws will do lap dances. Appeals court upholds ban on lap dances. Via Interested Particpant who has more. I blame Bush for this creeping fascism......

UPDATE: Related. Strippers arrested for not wearing pasties.

A federal appeals court has refused to reconsider a January ruling that upheld La Habra's so-called "two-foot rule' banning lap dances.
Strip-club owner Badi "Bill' Gammoh, who owns clubs in Anaheim, La Habra and Arcadia, challenged La Habra's 2003 ordinance that requires dancers to keep at least two feet away from customers.
Strippers also joined the suit, saying the law cost them lucrative earnings.
The suit claimed the ordinance was vague and illegally curtailed their freedom of expression.
But the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a unanimous opinion Jan. 27, said the ordinance did not improperly limit Gammoh or the dancers' protected freedoms.
The appellate court on Friday denied another hearing.

2 Having Bush and lap dance in the same post assures that you'll get some interesting visitors from Google searches.

5 A naked Barbara Bush senior. Now that's an ugly image. You've got to hand it to GHW Bush for sticking with her after she went to hell. I guess as a politician he didn't have much choice.

6 This law will create major problems for law enforcement.

In Palo Alto some years ago, the local paper reported the bust of a lap dancing bar. About 250 policemen had gone in as undercover agents to collect the evidence...

7 Prostitution and sex services should be taken into government observation and control, so it wouldn't be a risky business to make a living in. It would also limit the spreading of AIDS and prostitutes sneaking into the country.
How many people do you think you'd need to make your areas' senators speak for this kind of change?

8 A lap dance is so much better when the stripper is crying......C'mon, sing along. You all know the words.

9 A few years back,I got a lap dance at the Deja Vu club in Kuusamo.
You gotta pay these gals by the minute. Shit,It took her 15 minutes to get her parka,sweater and long underwear off.
I lost all my Markkas on one dance and had to walk out into the frozen night.

10 Haha... she might've called you a parka, that would be poor (as in pitiful, not out of money) bastard, and if she spoke very much on the "s", she was a Russian ho, and you got fooled and your money was completely wasted.

11 Young man, your spending way too much time on your new computer.

Get out of your room and go out and chase some Reindeeer or make a snowman!

12 Actually, in here it's quite late in here and the next thing, after checking out these things, I'm going to do, is go sleep. Usually I spend time at a computer if I got empty hours at the lukio, or while watching TV and internetexploring at the same time before I sleep.(and the closest reindeers are a 2-hour drive away, and the snow has mostly melted already)

16 Hehe, sex is R-16 in Europe, only sadistic torture gives things an R-18, so basically I should only stay away from the terrorist propagandaexecution-videos-section.

18 Might as well keep commenting since there's no point in not to...
The more known thing about Nevada to me is Las Vegas. Lotta movies about it, CSI is a good show.
