Ohio Senate Bill 16

I have been casually following this bill.  For those who are unaware of it, this bill would almost single-handedly put "adult entertainment" establishments out of business.  The bottom line, as I see it, if you don't like those types of places--STAY AWAY FROM THEM!  Don't legislate them out of existance.

That being said, if I were a proprietor of one of these businesses, I would search for a loop-hole in the legislation.  Based on my cursorary reading of the bill, I think I may have one.  Turn your club into a "private, members only establishment".  Charge a membership fee (could be a daily membership fee) and then you are no longer open to the public.  Just a friendly idea for all.

I am personally sick and tired of groups of people that want to legislate our lives and limit our liberties.  It does not matter whether you approve or disapprove of this issue.  The Constitution grants us the inalienable rights of Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.  Why are we so eager to give up those rights to appease a small group of people?  Why not just let the market decide?
