It’s election time: What is your county up to?

Just as sure as summer time goes with cicadas, election time goes with local law enforcement going after adult-oriented businesses. The City of Houston has been using the legal system in its attempts at shutting down adult businesses, yet they keep finding loopholes to avoid closure. The lawyers for the businesses call themselves bookstores or ‘bikini bars’ in their efforts at finding loopholes. I find it entertaining how this cat and mouse game goes on every election year. When it is not adult businesses, it is gambling establishments. Such businesses are not good for communities, yet the legal system manages allowing them to continue (gee, I wonder which judges are receiving contributions from the their election campaign?).

The Texas legal system is not to be outdone. Now they have decided to track children who do not attend government schools. The system involves ankle bracelets and GPS tracking in Bexar County. It will be interesting to see how the legal systems in Counties of Bexar and Harris will do with their perspective targets. In Houston, they can’t prosecute adult businesses and in San Antonio they can’t keep track of their truants.

Free Texas!
