Do You Have A Constitutional Right To A Gangbang?
The municipality of Duncanville, Tx that is suburb of Dallas has been drawn in its own small Jerry Falwell style holy scripture belt combat with the founders of a privileged ”adult party club” named “The Cherry Pit“. The Cherry Pit is a private residence tucked in away in an expensive Duncanville housing neighborhood. The Cherry Pit announces on the web and according to published reports draws as many as 100 visitors to a weekly party.
The Cherry Pit has been holding fetish sex parties where visitors pay a fee for entrance and are allowed get involved in pretty much any type of sexualgroup sex actions they want on the premises. It is the position of the hosts that this does not constitute a “business” as the entry fee is to cover the cost of snacks, beverages etc and not a price for the opportunity of engaging in sex from the tame to the “Pulp Fiction” apple in the mouth brand of entertainment…. It is whispered for an additional service money they will even “bring out the gimp“….(just kidding)
This whole bru ha ha happened earlierin November of 2006 when after few years of Cherry Pitt neighbors complaining about the crime, noisy visitors and “unsavory element” “the pit” was bringing to the district, the City of Duncanville approved the following decree:
“the operation and maintenance of a swinger to be unlawful and a public irritation. Violation of the new regulation will outcome in a fine of up to $2,500.”
The city of Duncanville after that decided that the parties at the Cherry Pit were more than simply a meeting of “friends and family” looking for some excitement and determined that it was actually a sexually oriented business and subject to the law. The respond of Julie Norris, one of the founders of “The Pit” was as follows:
“I do not know what their meaning of a business is, but to my understanding a business is public – anybody can just walk into it and you shall pay to get in and we are none of that,” Norris said. “I allow contributions. Have you ever had your friends over for a Party and asked everybody to pitch in $5 or bring a dish? That is exactly what we do. The only condition to get into my home is that a person call and let me know that you are coming and you are on my reservation list.”
Ms Norris continued to state that she understood that the regulation is a excuse to assault their lifestyles and values and that the decree regulating the club violated their First Amendment Rights to Privacy.
“It boils down to people want to put their ethics into my own territory and I have to stand against that,” Norris said. “That is not what the Constitution allows.”
The owners of the Cherry Pit after that counter sued the city claiming the regulation banning sex clubs violates their solitude and due process rights. They are basically using the same argument under which a right to privacy was found under Roe v. Wade. They have to use this technique in making the right to privacy argument because there is basically no right to personal privacy spelled out in the Constitution.
The Cherry Pit’s lawer, Edward Klein, said the city is trying to regulate private acts in a private house using the public irritation law as a “pretext” to do so….
The Cherry Pitt has stayed open while all the legal backbiting has taken place… Just today the City of Duncanville broadened the ordinance intended to lock the club down by making the classification of a adult club more broad and add a local plea process for sex clubs that the city orders to shut down.
***October 29, 2008 A jury proclaimed the organizers of the Cherry Pit accountable of unlawfully operating a sexually oriented business.
So what you do think? Should private citizens be allowed to “swap pits” at the Pitt without the authorities getting its’ rocks off?
You obviously can’t do cocaine in the isolation of your dwelling. These things are illegal regardless of where they are engaged in.
Let us as well keep this in mind. Duncanville is NOT trying to control the sex dating TX showing up at the venue. They are attempting to order the hosts of the club in allowing the “Piters” to engage in sex for a fee at their home…. The state is NOT regulating where and with whom you can have sex with. They are telling the owners of the Pit that if they are charging you to do it, they are subject to state punishment. There is a big dissimilarity…
Nobody is going to advice you that you cant go down to your neighborhood red light quarter and get a BJ from Mollie the local crack addict or Billy the cross dressing pimp or even take any of maduras sexo to the Cherry Pit for some fun. We surely are aware of however that the act of handing over a dollar in exchange for the BJ makes the otherwise agreeable act illegal prostitution on one end and the illegal action of soliciting a prostitute on the other end no matter where it occurs (in addition to whatsoever other wicked doing goes with “the other end”). The jury has decided that there is a undeniable government concern to control and/or criminalize such acts…
***October 29, 2008 A jury found the owner of the Cherry Pit guilty on 10 counts of running a sexually oriented company. The Cherry Pit has since been locked. While advise for the owners declared that the decree would be appealed and the statute challenged, it is uncertain if either of those was ever pursued.
