San Antonio Strippers to Wear Permits

SAN ANTONIO (AP) -- The City Council on Friday approved an ordinance requiring strippers to wear their permits while they are on stage.

City Councilman Chip Haass pushed the measure, adopted unanimously by the 11-member council, as a way to make it easier for police to identify dancers.

But Jim Deegear, a lawyer for several strip clubs in the city, said it would put strippers in danger by making it easier for an obsessed customer to find out a dancer's real name and where she lives.

He said the measure is part of an effort to drive strip clubs out of business, and he said he will fight it in court.

"SANITIZED FOR YOUR PROTECTION"

They would force strippers to reveal their real names to the customers? Bad idea.

"City Councilman Chip Haass pushed the measure, adopted unanimously by the 11-member council, as a way to make it easier for police to identify dancers. "

The dancer's must have some kind of urban commo, or stealth device. A judge should require these council members to wear dunce hats for all public appearances.

Well, I'll to agree on this one. I always have a hard time determining which ones are the strippers.

As Chris Rock says to fathers: "Your job is to keep your daughters Off The Pole". Being in a job that makes one a magnet for passion-obsessed people puts you at risk and raises the question "is it worth it"?

Identify as in "card them". Makes it easier if they have to wear their card (earring? dangling from G-string? Inserted into some orifice? Probably their choice.)

This is how crooked cops get away with stripper date rapes.
