Watching Porn Movies in Cars same as Having Sex In Public:

3-11-2004 Drivers Spot X-Rated Films in Other Cars

DETROIT - Andrea Carlton hadn't planned on telling her daughter about the birds and bees until she was 8 or 9. But that changed the night 4-year-old Catherine spotted a porno movie flickering on a screen in a minivan nearby.


3-10-2004 Police Secretly Watching Hip-Hop Celebs

MIAMI - Police say they are secretly monitoring hip-hop stars P. Diddy, DMX and others in South Florida to protect them, but celebrities and critics see the surveillance as unnecessary and racist.

Officers in Miami and Miami Beach have photographed rappers and their entourages at Miami International Airport and staked out hotels, video shoots and nightclubs

Some experts believe the sweeping surveillance of a genre of musicians is unprecedented.

"There's been no shortage of rock stars and other musicians" scrutinized by police, said Anthony DeCurtis, contributing editor at Rolling Stone magazine. "But there has never been anything like this."

Miami Beach and Miami police did not immediately respond to calls Wednesday for additional comment.

"This kind of conduct shows insensitivity to constitutional limitations"

Officers were sent to New York for a three-day training session in May, along with police from Los Angeles, Atlanta and other cities. That's where they received the dossiers, said Miami police Sgt. Rafael Tapanes.

Those Boys at So So Def Records down in the ATL better watch their backs from these Thug Police.

If I made my living by singing about how many people I've shot or how I've got a district attorney's daughter locked in my basement, I wouldn't be too surprised if I got a little police attention...

O'Riely will be pleased!

Just goes to show this country is becoming a police state, where the government can oppress its own citizens.

 

[tnitsuj]

So what, "those people" are generally criminals anyway.

How is this opressing?

I can list a bunch of rappers who have been killed, or have been killed or involved with violent crimes and gangs.

 

[AEB]

they might be suspected of something, police do survalence on criminals all the time

 

[Shad0hawK]

it's not like these guys go around making drug deals and shoot each other or anything....

 

[Zebo]

All those guys should be in prison. They offer zero in terms of goodness and only incite and glamorise violence, crime, drugs, materialism, and treating woman as scrap meat among other things. If it was'nt for thier audiance making them millionaires to afford an OJ defense like team they would be already. I am a rap fan too. Listened to fatboys/RunDMC/Public Enemy growing up but they were very different it seems.

 

[Zebo]

BTW dave everyone of those guys and many others have already been tried for capital offenses but were able to "beat the rap" due to thier enormous defense team and race baiting the PDs during trials. You almost have to video tape the act to get a conviction.

Wow Phokus, I should made this a Poll. Looks like 8 out 10 would rather be under Hitler's rule.

Well they have Bush and Ashcroft so it is the 4th Reich, close enough and they are Happy.

I know you paraphrased for brevity but here's some of what was missing:

"We have to keep an eye on these rivalries," said Assistant Miami Beach Police Chief Charles Press. "The last thing we need in this city is violence."

....

Police began gathering intelligence on rap artists after the Memorial Day 2001 weekend, when 250,000 hip-hop fans flocked to South Beach for four days of parties hosted by their favorite rappers. More than 210 people were arrested, double usual number, most for disorderly conduct and intoxication.

....

"Nobody on the beach had a handle on who the players were," Press said. "We didn't know anything. We didn't know who were the big record labels, who were the kingpins. We didn't know why there were rivalries with Ja Rule and Eminem [I hear he's some white guy]."

No I purposely didn't bother with that lame excuse for stripping of privacy and opression since they also said they have the surveillance Teams in place in other cities as well including Atlanta which is the home of So So Def Records which is why I specifically mentioned them.

Nice try, Heil b0mbrman!

 

[b0mbrman]

I had no intention but to make sure people could read the whole story and form their own opinions.

After all, I wouldn't want anyone to accuse you of trying to make a misleading first post in an attempt to force an opinion on us all

But yes, nice try backatcha Herr McOwen

Officers in Miami and Miami Beach have photographed rappers and their entourages at Miami International Airport and staked out hotels, video shoots and nightclubs while consulting 6-inch-thick dossiers of rappers and associates with arrest records in New York state, The Miami Herald reported.

It seems they are keeping on eye on people that already have a criminal history.

I must have an entire Police Force breathing down my neck then since I was the most "notorious hacker the state had ever seen", their exact words.

3-11-2004 Drivers Spot X-Rated Films in Other Cars

DETROIT - Andrea Carlton hadn't planned on telling her daughter about the birds and bees until she was 8 or 9. But that changed the night 4-year-old Catherine spotted a porno movie flickering on a screen in a minivan nearby.

"Just like there's no windows in a strip club, you shouldn't be able to see inside windows in a car when they're watching X-rated movies," said Carlton, a 26-year-old from Gurnee, Ill.

"Residents should not be subjected to those obscenities," said Flint City Councilwoman Carolyn Sims, who is examining whether an ordinance packing a $500 fine is needed. "They do have a right to have peace and tranquility and not to have this exposure to sex in their face."

Since then, Carlton has spotted other motorists with explicit movies playing, including a couple watching from the back seat of their car in a store parking lot.

"You're not allowed to have sex in your car, so why are you allowed to watch it?" Carlton asked.

Laws governing the exhibition of pornography vary by state, but experts say they could be applied to drivers as well.
"I think those restrictions would apply if the content is located in a vehicle," said Jeff Matsuura, director of the law and technology program at the University of Dayton. "You have effectively moved beyond the privacy of your own home."

To Sims, a 23-year police veteran who retired in 2001, playing an explicit movie in view of other motorists or pedestrians is akin to flashing or having sex in a public place.

Oh I see, "My" vehicle is now a public vehicle.

Had no idea you were an anarchist dave. There are certain societal norms we must accept to get on with one another and public showing of rauchy sex is'nt one of them. It's offensive to many and may pose a bad influence to children..Of course some of this depends on commuity standards...In San Fran they could probably care less but in more socially conservative areas many will take exception just like anything else. Personally I don't understand how porns are even made since prostitution is illegal. BTW the road in you car is public..same reason you can get dwi and nudity/lewd/lavicous behavior charged for getting a bj while driving

 

[BaliBabyDoc]

This country needs serious help. We glorify violence . . . and in general glorify sex . . . but everybody gets bent out of shape over what other people are doing. Curiously, the only reason we know what other people are doing is b/c we are all up in their bidness! Here's a solution why don't we legalize limo tent? Or better yet . . . mind your own damn business. Two people watching porn in the parking lot . . . ain't no damn crime. Of course there's one caveat, the idiot that was watching porn while driving . . . now that's a crime . . . driving while stupid.

Exactly BBD, I'm no "Anarchist" Zebo, we have Police locking up people watching a movie in a parking lot while around the corner goes down drug deals and drive by shootings, WTF is up with that? Socially "Conservative" my A$$.
