Oh nuts, you just had to post this in News/Activism? :)

It’s for the children... Seriously, come on, what’s next, pants on doggies so that kids might not see testicles on animals? Come on.

State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers.

Anyone who puts these on his trucks should get ticketed for being a moron.

What Einstein came up with this stupid idea. To me shows a person with a very low I.Q.

Have you actually seen this? I doubt it. It is over the line.

He said the idea came from a constituent whose young daughter spotted an example of the trail hitch adornment and asked her father to explain it.

"'I didn't know what to tell her,'" Spruill said the constituent told him before Spruill vowed to stop such displays.

Reminds me of the joke about an irate wife who castrated her husband while driving down the road ... and threw his "member" out the window

A man and his daughter were following and when the "member" hit their windshield, the girl asked her father what had happened.

When he explained that they had hit a bird she replied "that bird sure had a big d__k."

Omilord.

Everygood ole boy between here and St. Mary’s has one....

Like every other trucker has nekkid girl mudflaps.

I only mine were that big...

The sight of testicles doesn't distract me. Rep. Spruill's mileage may vary.

(I’ll bet this “einstein” is doing pretty well, his site has been up for prolly 8 - 10 years IIRC)

>> The sight of testicles doesn’t distract me. Rep. Spruill’s mileage may vary.

I wonder which hitch cover would be more distracting — TruckNutz, or a rubber replica of Rep. Spruill’s head, swinging from a noose. I bet he doesn’t think to ban those!

[WinMod70]

Does this have anything to do with a lockbox?

I like those mud flaps, but for safety reasons. At night, they "twinkle" with headlights shining on the chrome. Better than plastic reflectors.

Make those dangely downs out of chrome and you'd really have something!

These things are silly and tasteless, but no more distracting than bumper stickers, license plate frames, or assorted crap in the back window. Mr. Spruill needs a pay cut if he’s got enough state time on his hands for this bill.

lol

” I didn’t know what to tell her,’” Spruill said”

So much for government funded sex education programs.

[najida]

Oh I’ve seen those dangly things out of chrome, brass, red, black... you name it....

On trucks they look cool.

However, I saw a pair on a little itty bitty station wagonie car....it looked kinda pitiful.

[MotleyGirl70]

First and last time I saw one of those was a couple months.

I'm sure "Einstein" is making a fine living off his hanging nut sack.
