Texas woman faces obscenity charges - for selling vibrators

Or, more accurately, for selling vibrators and admitting (to two undercover police officers) that they're vibrators. As the article points out, it's perfectly legal to sell them in Texas... just as long as you claim they're novelties and avoid mentioning their sexual uses.

Maximum sentence, if she's found guilty, is a year in prison.

Sounds like a news story you'd expect from Iran, not America... and do the Texas police really have nothing better to do with their time?

The company has representatives in every state and is doing some of its best business in California, New York and the Bible Belt, a section of the United States where Christian beliefs and clergy are influential.

That made me smile. How many of the clergys wifes are buying this gear then?
