Tampa Police have arrested 70-people in the Tampa-area
for violating the law on lap-dancing.
Five strip clubs were targeted in what police are calling an
undercover operation. Last December, the Tampa City Council
enacted the ban on lap dancing and it's been a contentious issue since
then. Those arrested also included a 16 and 17-year old girl who
were in possession of cocaine and marijuana.
The clubs raided were Mons Venus, 2001, Pink Pony, Déjà vu
and
the Seven Seas. All of the clubs have a pending lawsuit against the
city challenging the validity of the ban on lap dancing. The raids
began at 10:00 p.m. Friday night and ended just before midnight.

City stages lap-dance raids at 5 adult clubs
CHERIE JACOBS LANE
of The Tampa Tribune
TAMPA - Seven months after
the city council ordered nude
dancers to stay six feet away
from customers, Tampa police
started enforcing the lap-dance
law late Friday night with
simultaneous raids on five
erotic clubs.
One of their targets was Mons
Venus, a club at 2040 N. Dale
Mabry Highway, whose owner
has been aggressively
challenging the city's ban on
close-encounter nude dancing.
``It wasn't like a SWAT team
where they jumped all over them. They just started hoarding the girls in
the back; the
girls were putting their clothes on,'' said Michael Walker, 22, who is
visiting from
Lafayette, La.
``You had two choices: You had cuffs on, or you left,'' said Frank Sino,
22, of St.
Petersburg - who chose to leave.
Police hit five Tampa clubs shortly before midnight: Mons Venus, 2001 Odyssey
at
2309 N. Dale Mabry Highway; Deja Vu at 6805 E. Adamo Drive; Pink Pony at
4009
E. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd.; and the Seven Seas, 3023 W. Kennedy Blvd.
These are the same clubs the city sued in December in an effort to enforce
the
lap-dance ordinance. Those lawsuits are still pending.
``We just decided to go ahead and start enforcing it,'' said City Attorney
Jim Palermo.
He said the raids were planned for weeks.
Mons Venus owner Joe Redner, however, asserted that the raid was a personal
attack. He said he was at a political event on Sunday with Mayor Dick Greco,
and he
refused to shake the mayor's hand. ``I think the mayor is a punk,'' Redner
said. ``I
think he did this because I wouldn't shake his hand.''
As police walked in and out of his club early this morning, Redner vowed
to continue
business as usual: ``Hell no, I'm not going to comply.''
The city council enacted a law in December 1999 requiring nude dancers
to stay at
least six feet from customers. The law, in effect, outlaws nude lap dances
offered at
many Tampa erotic establishments.
Dancers, customers and owners can be arrested and jailed for up to six
months and
fined up to $1,000 if convicted. It was not revealed who was arrested or
how many.
Also in December, the city sued the five strip clubs to try to force compliance
with the
ordinance.
But then the city took no action to enforce the law. Club owners taunted
police with
signs on their marquees: STILL LAP DANCING, GET YOUR LAP DANCE HERE,
and STILL NUDE LAP DANCING IN TAMPA.
Club owners contended that the city had lost interest in enforcing the
law. But city
officials responded that they were taking a measured approach while the
lawsuits
proceeded through the courts. They also said they wanted to make sure customers
had the opportunity to become aware of the new law and its consequences.
But in March, city officials were emboldened by a U.S. Supreme Court ruling
in an
Erie, Pa., case.
The court reinstated a local ordinance there that had sweeping restrictions
on public
nudity. The court ruled that the ban did not violate the free expression
rights of erotic
dancers, but instead was targeted at the ``secondary effects'' of nude
dancing - that
is, crime.

NEW STRIP CLUB RAIDS NET
13-ARRESTS
Saturday, July 29, 2000
Friday night saw the continuation of the battle of wills
between strip club owners and the Tampa Police
Department.
Police raided raided the clubs Mons Venus, 2001 Odyssey and
Deja-Vu last night as they reinforced Tampa's "no-contact"
ordinance. Of the three clubs inspected last night, only Deja-Vu was
in compliance with the law. 13-people were arrested from Mons
Venus and investigators say several DANCErs from the club were
repeat offenders. Two people were arrested from 2001 Odyssey.
In what may signal the beginning of an expanded crackdown
in other areas of entertainment, police also arrested 5-people
involved in a wet t-shirt contest held at Ybor City's, Club
Hedo, 1510 E. 7th Ave. A police spokesman says Tampa City
Code prohibits the exposure of certain body parts in establishments
where alcohol is served.
More than 100-people have been arrested since Tampa police
began enforcing the LAP DANCE ordinance.

Tampa city council has received complaints of significant increase
of prostitution. The Judicial system is so overloaded that they are being
forced to choose between prosecuting violent crimes and non violent crimes.
The entire council was furious to hear this news. Buckhorn called prostitutes
"termites". I guess somewhere in the Bible, it tells you to treat prostitutes
as "termites". They have promised to spent SIGNIFICANTLY more money and
raise taxes to enforce all the new laws.
Buckhorn said he wanted to follow the example of mayor Adolf, I mean Rudolf Giuliani.
You know Barry, and Greco, and Panzer, and Vixen,
Cumit, and Cupid and Boner and Bitchin, but do you recall
the most infamous mayor of all?
Rudolf, the brown nosed mayor
had a very long nose.
And if you ever saw him,
you would even say he blows.
All of the other mayors,
used to laugh and call him great
They never let mean Rudolf
pay for any racketeering games.
Then one smoggy N.Y. eve
Mistress came to say:
"Rudolf with your nose so long,
won't you guide my pussy tonight?"
Then all the mayors hated him
as they shouted out with greed:
"Rudolf the long nosed mayor,
you'll go down in history!"
Rudolf Giuliani had to quit his 2000 campaign because of his sex affair
with his mistress. That was the type of man who was trying to get rid of
strip clubs in N.Y. He is the idol for Buckhorn.
As usual, repressed people, are turing to real crimes to direct their
anger.
Here are some pictures of tourists in N.Y. being sexually assaulted,
where corrupt police are unable to assist.
A women trained in self defense finds out she is helpless in a pack
of sex crazed wolfs.
Rudolf Giuliani had promised his corrupt police would take care of
everything if all the strip clubs are closed and the people give up all
their weapons.

66. File No. E2000-8 CH 14
An ordinance of the City of Tampa, Florida, amending City of Tampa
Code, Chapter 14, Offenses,
Article II, Miscellaneous Offenses, by restating and amending Division
9, Adult Entertainers Distance
Separation Requirement; providing legislative findings, intent and
purpose; definitions; imposing a six
(6) feet distance separation between adult entertainers and patrons;
providing for exceptions;
providing for penalties; adding a requirement for signage notice of
prohibited acts; providing for
severability; providing an effective date.
--------------------------
After informing Joe Redner that public hearings will start at
10 am. city council quickly moved its agenda to 9 am., so that people would
not be given the opportunity to voice their opinion.
Mr. redener correctly called them "ass holes", and promised to
show up two hours ahead for the second hearing.
---------------------------
They don't post signs at city council that it is illegal to take kick
backs from land developers.
They don't post signs at churches that priests and altar boys should
not engage in oral sex.
(one person has admitted to me that a priest tried to do this to him.)
Why should adult entertainment clubs have to post of illegal acts?
If they graphically display the acts for people that can't read
, would that be pornography?

Sometimes there is an advantage to being out of uniform,
you can AFFORD to tell the TRUTH.
When public Servants sit in elevated chairs, the higher altitude
causes the air to get thin,
this clouds their thinking.
Sometimes the TRUTH hurts,
but that is no reason, to bend rules to avoid hearing someone.
In fact, public servants should be bending rules to listen to
different views.
I know the council has made up their minds even before they were
born.
So my speech, is for the public.
Oppression comes in many forms.
In China it is communism.
During world war II it was the Nazis with their Swastika in Germany.
In this country, it a cross of a different shape.
A betrayal to their own religion, just like Judas.
Of course Jesus would say "forgive them father, they know not what they do."
This oppression and intolerance,
has nearly wiped out the native american culture in north america,
and nearly wiped out the cultures of the Aztec and Maya in South America.
The real plague is, Judaea Christian Intolerance.
It attempts to convert all host cultures to one form of thought.
That type of intellectual incest is doomed to failure, just like the
Nazi purification.
Over 50 % of your two million prisoners are jailed for non-violent consenting
adult reasons.
Each costs over $25,000 per year.
Then you take away the right to vote for ALL felons.
Safe enough to walk the streets but not safe enough to vote.
What are you afraid of?
Time and TRUTH are on our side.
50 years from now OUR ideas will be alive and thriving.
50 years from now YOUR ideas will be six feet under.
Thank you.

Letter to lpf
The Libertarian platform currently offers the best chance of rebuilding
the constitution, which has
been severely damaged in the last 50 years. Right wing groups are against
sex and pursuit of
happiness. Left wing groups are against guns and believe that law abiding
people should have less
power than law enforcement/ government. I served 10 years of active
duty in the U.S. Air Force,
and considering all things, I know this is the best place to be in
the world . But many people don't
realize how many lives were lost by veterans of various countries for
their current rights. When I see
rights being taken away, I am terrified for the children of the world.
We are often complacent about
food, shelter, health, justice. If the U.S. falls, what hope of light
will the children of the world have ? I
believe that if we are able, it is our moral duty to stop genocide.
(That is one of the few rules where I
disagree with our platform.) The U.S. survives today because the constitution
is more resilient against
the cancer which has brought down other countries. But it will not
survive without your anti viral
help. Next time you see a child following it's mother in a grocery
store; or when you are driving you
look into the rear windshield of the car in front of you and see a
small hand playfully trying to reach
the ceiling from a child restraint seat; know that you are fighting
for their inalienable right to smile.
Also, after 75 years of oil corruption, we finally have the opportunity
to buy practical hybrid electric
vehicles this year and help us reduce our dependence on non-renewable
energy sources.

Republican Hillsborough County Commissioner Ronda Storms, with 500 churchgoers armed with more than 10,000 signatures and a video presentation , were fighting Wednesday to get a referendum on the November ballot that would ban public nudity, including strip clubs.
Storms' plea was preceded by appeals to the commission by Tom Biles of the Tampa Bay Baptist Association and David Gibbs of the Christian Law Association. Both men are also leaders in Citizens for Decency, a grass-roots group of church members spearheading the effort.

-Unfortunately Buckhorn the Fuckhorn is running for county commissioner.
-Joe Redner is also running, but in a different district.
Chances may be slim for Joe because it seems that only a quarter
of the VOTING public
openly supported adult entertainment.
Perhaps it is time to take away the voting rights of Bible
Thumpers.
