Porn Star Plans SC Visit In Defiance Of Local Leaders

VICE WARS … HEATING BACK UP

|| By FITSNEWS || We’ve written repeatedly on South Carolina’s ridiculous vice war – which is most pronounced in the socially conservative Upstate (but occasionally manifests itself along the Palmetto coast).

This time its focus is South Carolina’s capital city of Columbia – where local officials have been laboring for years to get an adult bookstore to pull up its stakes.

The store – Taboo – came to Devine Street in downtown Columbia, S.C. in December of 2011.  Since then, city officials have been working to run it out of town by retroactively changing zoning laws.

They believe the store is a magnet for crime.

Really?

Amazingly, they are having success with this bogus argument – as a federal court ruled in favor of the city back in March.  While the legal drama plays out, though, the store is hosting adult film star Layla Price (very NSFW twitter page HERE) on August 14.

Local mainstream media is not pleased.

“Not only is the store still open in the wake of the recent court decision, staff are also gearing up for an event in just a few weeks,” WIS TV 10 (NBC – Columbia, S.C.) reported.

Good for Taboo …

Government has no business interfering in private transactions involving consenting adults – so long as those transactions do not materially impose on someone else’s liberty.  In fact as we’ve said repeatedly, we believe prostitution should be decriminalized in South Carolina (and all over the country, for that matter).

Our national economy is in real trouble, people … and our state economy is badly lagging behind its national and regional peers in terms of the size of its workforce and the amount of money its workers get paid.

Why our “leaders” continue to sanctimoniously (and in this case hypocritically) restrict commerce is beyond us …

The owners of Taboo are just hoping that other property owners in the area will pay them a premium to go away. It’s nothing more than extortion.

Taboo is a barely noticeable store on a blighted corner. The site was chosen in conjunction with the city who now acts like they had nothing to do with it.

It’s hardly blighted these days. Plans for redevelopment were underway and he knew it. Wasn’t it a year or so back that the owner wanted the city to pay him to go away but his accounting records were such crap that he couldn’t prove damages?

While I’ll agree that Smashburger and Moe’s dress the place up a little, we’re still talking strip malls, McDonald’s, title loan stores and a self place. Taboo just isn’t that big a distraction/attraction in their current location.

I’ll also admit that, while I drive through that intersection at least a couple of times a week, I’ve not often noticed Taboo. However, I would appreciate it if they’d just remove their neon lettered marquee from Rosewood Dr.

The Colonel July 30, 2015 at 1:43 pm

I go through the intersection of Rosewood and Sumter Highway 2-3 times a week and rarely even notice, much less think about the place. It’s not like they have dancing penises twirling signs.

You hit the nail directly on the head. Just waiting on a payday. Hopefully his hold out exceeds his pocket depth. I have nothing against access to porn, but the if the city hadn’t had their heads up their own asses, and this area had had proper zoning ordinances a sex business in that corridor would have never been allowed. Classic Columbia city administration.

Have you been down the corridor of Two Notch where the porn shop “This is It” is? It IS ripped up. Have you seen the stretch of Broad River road where the porn shops moved in? It, too, is becoming blighted out. In those cases, I think it has more to do with the neighborhoods that border those areas, not the porn shops. Is Taboo an eyesore? I think you’d have to be a complete moron to say it’s not. It’s a former Tacobell, that looks like a painted over Tacobell, selling a different type of Taco now. I honestly don’t see how the place stays in business, it looks dead empty 24/7. The guy is either selling enough online to keep it afloat or he’s supplementing his income.

Any crime in that area can be easily attributed to the dump of an apartment complex behind the BiLo, not Taboo. One of my favorite pastimes is pointing out shoplifters to the management in there. Doing my part to keep the prices low!

People who come out so defiantly shilling for more filth and porn, have a much higher chance of being busted by the AG for child pornography. It’s as blatant marketing of your soul as Obama’s IRS or racial persecution of those he hates. And your daughters (and sons in the homosexual genre) likely have much more of a chance of ending up working in the industry too.

How many FITSNews admirers have been busted, I wonder? How many of your children have followed your lead into darkness and are completely lost? I bet it’s been a few of them. All in the name of your rotten spirit and your liberal political gods.
