No vibrating cock rings at CVS
February 18, 2008 at 1:05 pm by Andisheh Nouraee in NewsFrom the New York Observer:
And so—after all the concept groups, focus groups, guinea pig couples—in August 2005, the first Trojan vibrating ring was given a slow, gentle rollout; except in Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kansas, Colorado and Virginia, where sex toys are illegal in all-purpose pharmacies.
I’m aware Georgia’s anti-pleasure laws pre-date Republican rule in the state, but no intellectually honest person will ever think of Republicans as promoters of freedom and personal responsibility until they decide vibrators are less of a public danger than firearms. The self-proclaimed party of getting government off our backs needs to get off our fronts.

man, you guys were really stretching for your daily shot at all things right-wing today, weren’t you?
by your own admission, this law predates republican control of the legislature. and seriously, your analogy isn’t even valid. i can’t by a glock in cvs either.

glock rhymes with cock

A stretch? You know perfectly well that our legislature values loosening gun control restrictions more than it values the right of people to enjoy consensual sexual activity as they see fit in the privacy of their homes.
Since taking control of the legislature, state Republican leaders have made a concerted effort to loosen Georgia’s already quite loose gun control laws. Yet private, personal sexual conduct has received no similar attention from the so-called party of freedom and personal responsibility.

maybe, but chose an example that states that. instead you chose a law that was never passed by a republican legislature and then used a fallcious analogy.
if i could buy a pistol at cvs but not a vibrating cock ring your post would make a lot more sense.
and as much as i think it is a silly law, making it illegal to sell a cock ring at the walgreens is NOT the same thing as “the right of people to enjoy consensual sexual activity in as they see fit in the privacy of their homes.”
outlawing them maybe, making it illegal to sell them in the kroger pharmacy, not so much.
