So you're saying that my little cozy city of 10,000 or 20,000 people can do nothing to stop a strip club from opening within the city limits?

I don't see strip club zoning as any different than zoning that bans, say, a slaughter-house from residential areas. A community has the power to limit what types of businesses operate within the boundaries of that community.

A city can ban a strip club but not a state? Is that where the line is drawn?

I just don't understand why the residents of a state have to put up with strip clubs if they have enough votes to ban them.
