It's obvious that there is an economic incentive (how else would those smut shops be able to absorb those large fines on a daily basis????) that indicates that the "community" has decided that smut shops are ok, and it's the gov't that is going crazy with zoning - that's not setting community standards...
Now, as I stated before, I'm not a porn fan, and I do not frequent the types of establishments that are mentioned, but I also understand that some people do, for whatever reason. If I run for office, and win, does that mean I now have a valid bully-pulpit from which I can force my community (i.e. "the people") to live by MY standards, or are they free to make their own choices????
And as I said, I'm a prude, but I'm a realist enough to know that if they can do this kind of stuff to smut shops, it's only a matter of time before they do it to Gun Shops, Bible Stores or some other types of busineses that may offend some segment of the public, "for the children".
Hope you understand that my position is not in support of Pornography...
