"You have the freedom to live in a community without those things."

How about a city? A state? Can't the citizens of a state decide how they want to live? Can't the citizens of a state ban sex toys?

Why stop there? By your logic, why not ban redheads or left-handed people or Jews or Blacks? Certainly the majority should be able to make such choices, right?

Sorry to give you any more ideas.

Guess what, bobbie? -- You have the freedom to live in a community without those things.
There are hundreds of planned communities all over the USA without crack houses, - prostitutes walking the streets and an OTB parlor nearby.
Feel free to buy a house in one.

-- And abandon your efforts to subvert our Constitution with prohibitions on life, liberty or property.

How about a city? A state? Can't the citizens of a state decide how they want to live?

You bet they can bobbie, as long as they use constitutional due process in writing & enforcing laws.

Can't the citizens of a state ban sex toys?

Nope. - Prohibitions on toys, guns, drugs, etc, -- all violate due process.

Just make a contract with somebody rich enough to buy all the land in a city or a state, and you're golden.
