You Can't Hang Testicles On Your Truck In Maryland

Fake bull testicles and other anatomically explicit vehicle decorations would be banned from Maryland roads under a new bill pending in the state legislature.

The measure was filed by LeRoy E. Myers Jr. who says children shouldn't be exposed to giant plastic testicles dangling from pickup truck trailer hitches. The bill also would ban depictions of naked human breasts, buttocks or genitals - with fines of up to $500.

"It's time to take a stand", he says. Opposition say: "The legislation is overly broad, and would probably make it illegal to have a sticker on your car of the Venus de Milo from an art museum".

The best quote though is courtesy of Pamela Campbell who sells fake bull testicles. She thinks that the swinging decorations can prompt healthy discussions about anatomy and reproduction and says: "Do we have to neuter all dogs that walk by us? Where does it stop?".
