Alabama Vibrator Ban Inspired By Rudolph Giuliani The US senator who criminalised the sale of sex toys in Alabama nine years ago defended himself this week, as the issue headed the US Supreme Court, "First thing Giuliani did when he cleaned up New York was close down the sex shops," Senator Tom Butler pointed out, in his first comment on the case since 1999. The Huntsville Times reported that if the Supreme Court declines to review the law, then anyone selling a sex aid could soon face up a year in jail, putting Alabama on a par with Georgia, Texas, Nebraska,Virginia, Mississippi and Louisiana. New York club promoter/ radio DJ Daniel Nardicio, who also runs gay online network D-List, was unimpressed with the sex toy ban, as well as the Senator's endorsement of ex New York mayor turned Presidential hopeful Rudolph Giuliani. "Giuliani should be shot. He was a shitty mayor with low popularity until 9/11- he started this trend to just make New York City rich, and it continues today," Daniel said. "He also started the moral climate of going after bars' liquor licenses for any infraction, thereby inciting fear into the hearts of all bar owners. And don't get me started about the Cabaret Laws. I hate to say it, and I'm gonna' get flack for saying it, but for the most part New York is dead." Daniel, who was previously involved in some of raunchiest underground club events in the City said most sex parties now happen in private apartments where tenants invite guests over and charge them admission. . "I love it here, and I will continue to stay for a few more years, but really not much interesting is going on at the moment; it's gotten so fu*king 'Sex In The City'," he continued. "There seems to be less frighteningly interesting people in New York these days. Look at Jayne County-she lost her apartment recently and moved to Atlanta. And more and more people are moving to LA, as the endless condo craze seems to be trying to stamp out any individuality here at all," he complained.
