"No adult book stores or clubs in Polk County, either."

It's interesting how different states and counties have different laws.

Polk County is the Alabama of Florida. This is where all the inbredding rednecks go to live when they move out of some other southern state. Amazing 145 after the Civil War and the South is still full of ignorant fucks. They should have let Sherman burn more cities and kill more rednecks.

wow thats pretty pathetic to have that, is it actually a law?

jackknoff · 04-02-2010, 09:01 PM

Sadly it's true. Polk county doesn't allow anything adult, that includes being a cam model. Not even in your own home. If they find out they will prosecute under "community standards" laws. Frakin ridiculous...

I think I heard a rumor recently, something about a national community standards law being considered. Has anyone else heard about this? or what it just bs?

Spanx!

If you are in the porn biz, avoid Polk County.

"In an undercover sting, detectives also arrested the Georgia man who was supplying the stores."

on the way to tampa, there is a hooters in lakeland right next to the bmw dealership, clearly visible from I-4 to all passers by on the freeway. last time I drove by there was a huge banner on the roof that said "full liquor now available"... and not far from there is a redneck racetrack where they host the hooters cup series. this is all in lakeland, which i'm pretty sure is polk county.

BIGTYMER · 04-03-2010, 03:17 AM

The movie Porky's comes to mind...

digitaldivas · 04-03-2010, 03:47 AM

I think you're right, but I'm not sure what this has to do with porn.

What a stupid county.

The USA International Speedway near Lakeland closed for business a few years ago and races are no longer held there.

BTW, I've been there several times both as a spectator and as part of a race team. I am far from being what you perceive as a " Redneck ".

A few days ago you made a post about Civil War buffs with your perceived racists observations. You seemed to take offense from their actions. When you put the label " Redneck Racetrack " on the speedway you speak with the same ignorance you were accusing the civil war buffs of having. Do you see the hypocrisy?

You seem to be a proactive person so be part of the solution and don't perpetuate the problem

baddog · 04-03-2010, 07:32 AM

I wonder if this was selective law enforcement based on the store owners race.

rob04 · 04-03-2010, 07:51 AM

Good thing I live in Hillsborough, Joe Redner will never let shit like this happen!

And now I know to stay away from Polk! "It's the plague!"

You would imagine a law like that would be deemed unconstitutional, where's our free speech? So what if I want to read articles with pictures of naked women near them?

jackknoff · 04-06-2010, 10:04 PM

Rob,

It all boils down to local community standards, they're a backwoods bible beater county, completely old school. Someone else posted about hooters, hooters really isnt an adult business, those girls don't get naked or perform adult content. I am just about 2 hours or so away from Lakeland (Polk County), that place sux donkey nutz... I've been through there many times (honestly didn't notice a hooters there, but then again I wasn't paying attention). They have a crappy education system, one of the highest teenage pregnancy rates in the State of Florida. Just glad I don't live there!

Spanx!

I found this surfing around, I thought it was relavant:
It's all about the local community standards...

"All states have laws governing the distribution of obscene materials. Generally, these statutes prohibit the sale, lending, renting, giving, publication, exhibition or other dissemination of materials, with general knowledge of their obscene character and content. Drafted before an electronic age, many states define "materials" as covering any writing, written matter, picture, pictorial representation, film or motion picture, or sound recording. "Obscenity" is typically defined as material which, to the average person, applying contemporary community standards, and taken as a whole: 1) predominantly appeals to prurient interests, 2) lacks serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value, and 3) depicts or describes nudity, sex, or excretion in a patently offensive way. Of course, what constitutes the relevant "community" in on-line environments without geographic boundaries is an open issue. In a very few states, obscenity laws cover the dissemination of tangible material only, a matter of some importance given the debate in other areas of the law whether computer software or other information in digital format is tangible or intangible.* Similarly, many states prohibit the distribution of electronic or electrical reproductions of obscene material. Presumably such statutes cover obscene material in digital format; note, however, that ambiguities in criminal statutes are to be construed strictly against the state and in favor of the accused. A very few states prohibit the distribution of obscene materials to minors only; distribution to adults is not prohibited. "
