  • Ban Replica Testicles





    Jan. 14: Del. Lionel Spruill, D-Cheasapeake, looks through papers at his desk on the floor of the House of Delegates at the Capitol in Richmond, Va.

    RICHMOND, Va. — It's one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia.
    State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers.
    Under his measure, displaying the ornamentation on a motor vehicle would be a misdemeanor punishable by a maximum fine of $250.
    He said the idea came from a constituent whose young daughter spotted an example of the trail hitch adornment and asked her father to explain it.
    "'I didn't know what to tell her,"' Spruill said the constituent told him before Spruill vowed to stop such displays.
    "I said, 'Sir, I'm going to be a laughingstock, but I'm going to do it,"' he said.
    The Virginia General Assembly has some experience with offbeat bills. Three years ago, it drew widespread attention with an unsuccessful effort to outlaw baggy pants worn so low they expose underwear.
    Spruill, 61, said the indignity of the "droopy drawers" debate wouldn't deter him. He said he won't hesitate to bring a set of $24.95 trailer testicles with him for a legislative show-and-tell.
    "I'm going to do it," Spruill told a handful of reporters after Tuesday's House session adjourned. "I'm going to bring them out here and show them to you till they tell me to stop."

    Yeah, those are lame, anyway. I'm surprised they've been around so long without somebody bitching about them.

      Trailer sacks?? Where the hell have I been? You don't see stuff like that in NY. Is this a southern thing?

        Seems like it's a Texas thing. Definitely a southern thing in general.

          Virginia seems to be home to some rather twisted people. Not sure if it's still the case, but they apparently banned anal sex in the state at some point, or so I saw once.

            Damn you, LMZ. Because of you, I'm spending a very small portion of my Monday night researching sodomy law in the US, instead of watching RAW.

            Oh and though the Virgina ban was deemed unconstitutional via Lawrence v Texas, Virginia does indeed still attempt to prosecute. It is still a felony in Virginia to pack fudge.

              It's still illegal in our county to commit any homosexual act, whether or not it's in the privacy of your own home. Yep, in most places in Texas, it's actually illegal to be gay.
