Kan. House panel rejects bill on adult businesses

Source: KMBC.com

A Kansas House committee has rejected a bill imposing new regulations on strip clubs, adult bookstores and other sexually oriented businesses.

The Federal and State Affairs Committee first watered down the measure to remove provisions that would have banned alcohol and total nudity within such businesses.

Members also removed a ban on semi-nude employees intentionally touching patrons and a requirement that dancers remain 6 feet away from customers.

The revised bill still would have barred such businesses within 1,000 feet of schools, homes and houses of worship.

1. No, they don't care about KC

as most of the convention areas of KC are in Missouri.

Wichita and Topeka, and areas around KS casinos are more on their mind I'm guessing..

"The revised bill still would have barred such businesses within 1,000 feet of schools, homes and houses of worship."

Seems I recall similar prohibitions in place around the country within 1,000 feet of schools, churches, etc., with some on the Reich-wing saying they don't work, and even draw certain "elements" into those zones.
