[quote]Sen. Matt Bartle’s eight-year quest to crack down on strip clubs and adult bookstores finally succeeded Thursday night.

The Missouri Senate voted 27-4 to ban full nudity and prohibit adult businesses from selling alcohol. The clubs also would have to close between midnight and 6 a.m.

“Most human beings understand that if you mix alcohol and women dancing in the nude, that’s a tough combo,â€

Virginia did this a few years ago. Oddly enough most of our strip clubs don't get much patronage anymore...

Isn't it strange how Republicans are all in favor of government interference into the free market when it is about social values issues like this rather than Wall Street? :smile:

But this is just silly.
