City in Louisiana makes twerking Illegal - 30 days of jail time first offense

[Richiee]

[quote]DeQuincy, LA — The dance craze [URL="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twerking"]twerking[/URL] has become such a problem in the small town of DeQuincy, Louisiana that city officials have made it illegal.Maynard Wilkens who is the Mayor of DeQuincy spoke to [URL="http://www.cnn.com/"]CNN[/URL] about the ban on twerking that takes effect at midnight. “Twerking is a defiant act against Jesus and his teachings. The rest of the country can keep their heads in the sand about this sexual act before marriage, but not the great city of DeQuincy,” Wilkens said. “We will still allow dancing in DeQuincy, just no jigglin’, shakin’ and ‘dry humping’ anywhere in our city limits.”[/quote]

This is retarded. It's not hurting anyone. Back in the day there were bans on swing dancing because of its 'scandalous' sexual indecency and look how ridiculous that seems now. I think twerking is stupid as hell but banning it is even dumber.

Edit: I just realized it's satire. This is one of those times when satire is just [i]too[/i] believable and that's kind of sad.

[quote]The Louisiana town of less than 4,000 people has been at the tail end of three false press releases this year, the most recent of which landed on the Internet today claiming the town's mayor had banned twerking.

"It's a bunch of hogwash," said DeQuincy Mayor Lawrence Henagan. "There's nothing to it."[/quote]

Annnnnd we're done.
