RICHMOND, Va. - It's one thing to dangle fuzzy dice from a rear view mirror, but decorating a trailer hitch with a large pair of rubber testicles might be a bit much in Virginia. Who knew?!
State Del. Lionel Spruill introduced a bill Tuesday to ban displaying replicas of human genitalia on vehicles, calling it a safety issue because it could distract other drivers.
| Not me. I'd never look. Really. Certainly not. |
He said the idea came from a constituent whose young daughter spotted an example of the trail hitch adornment and asked her father to explain it. "'I didn't know what to tell her,'" Spruill said the constituent told him before Spruill vowed to stop such displays.
| Suggested reply: "Well honey, there's bulls and there's cows ..." |
| And we're going to laugh ... |
Spruill, 61, said the indignity of the "droopy drawers" debate wouldn't deter him. He said he won't hesitate to bring a set of $24.95 trailer testicles with him for a legislative show-and-tell. "I'm going to do it," Spruill told a handful of reporters after Tuesday's House session adjourned. "I'm going to bring them out here and show them to you till they tell me to stop."
