Hanging of 'Truck Nuts' Grows into a Free Speech Debate

'Don't touch my junk,' is taking on new meaning.
"Truck nuts," fake bull testicles made of plastic or metal that drivers hang on the back of their pickups to make a truck look more manly, have been around for years. Some find them funny, while others find them offensive, prompting at least three states to try to ban them -- unsuccessfully.

On July 5, Virginia Tice, 65, from Bonneau, S.C. pulled her pickup truck into a local gas station with red, fake testicles dangling from the trailer hitch. The town's police chief, Franco Fuda, pulled up and asked her to remove the plastic testicles.
When she refused, he wrote her a $445 ticket saying that she violated South Carolina’s obscene bumper sticker law.
The South Carolina code of laws reads, “a sticker, decal, emblem, or device is indecent … in a patently offensive way, as determined by contemporary community standards, sexual acts, excretory functions, or parts of the human body.”

You can't drive a mile down the road here in Phoenix with out seeing a set of "Truck nuts".

I like this little jewell->Hudson also cites the Supreme Court’s opinion that “the government may not prohibit the expression of an idea simply because society finds the idea itself offensive or disagreeable.”

nah, she's working hard, most of the time, and avoiding this silliness like the plague. :lol:
I miss having her around the lab, but she likes that compu-geek stuff, I suppose.
