MONTGOMERY, Ala. The U.S. Supreme Court declined today to hear a challenge to Alabama's ban on the sale of sex toys, ending a nine-year legal battle and sending a warning to store owners to clean off their shelves. An adult-store owner had asked the justices to throw out the law as an unconstitutional intrusion into the privacy of the bedroom. But the Supreme Court declined to hear the appeal, leaving intact a lower court ruling that upheld the law. Sherri Williams, owner of Pleasures stores in Huntsville and Decatur, said she was disappointed, but plans to sue again on First Amendment free speech grounds. "My motto has been they are going to have to pry this vibrator from my cold, dead hand. I refuse to give up," she said.

That should have been “what is with this”.....
sheesh
I barely know how to reply, let alone post a whole thread!
I’m html challenged. I also don’t have her sources.
I am guessing from what I have seen in the past, the thread would have been fine if it was posted by a man and filled with pics of bikini clad women.
Fun Nazis Killed Millee!!
Bummer. Serious nanny state attitude. Hopefully the people of Alabama will do something about it.
Chill out,,Spades a Spade,,not a diamond.We raised 5 kids,I reckon the wife and myself do live in the dark ages,,Bet you ride a rice burner..
We'll take her.

Are you certain she was banned and not suspended? Regardless, there must be much more to the story.
I was told banned.
I always said JRBC has a soft tail.
You’re so silly....
Next is banning lotion, vaseline, plastic baggies, and casaba melons (or so I have heard).
From the mods:
Free Republic is not a sex chat site, its a conservative political site.
Find another site to post this garbage.

It's not really that easy to get banned, at least, not from what I have seen. The procedure seems to include at least a couple of cautions and warnings, except in the most egregious cases. I looked through Millee's posting history and didn't find anything that seemed to justify a banning, so I am guessing that the thread involved was pulled. That in itself seems to indicate that something somewhat offensive may have occurred there.
Remember too, that this site is primarily political:
Free Republic is the premier online gathering place for independent, grass-roots conservatism on the web. We're working to roll back decades of governmental largesse, to root out political fraud and corruption, and to champion causes which further conservatism in America. And we always have fun doing it
I still like the Freeper a while back who angrily denied that he and his wife had ever engaged in oral sex.
Insufficient evidence.
“”””It will beat rice rockets””””””
Holy crap I am LMAO. That is truly the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. Surely you are kidding.....
