I don't agree with the business model in this case, and but it's like why charge 3x tax on a business model that uses less county resources (police)?

Jacksonville, Florida (very large city) feels as though these types of business should be in the 'red light district' as well. It truly is a shame. Business have to resort to working out of their homes (even then they can get in trouble, jail or fined) or live outside the city limits. Good for Patricia for standing up for her rights and those around her. Her attorney should contact others in her business and file a class action suite.

She has a clear first ammedment right to say whatever, and other adults can forfeit their hard earned money to her if they should choose. This is a clear case of infringement. What country does the County of Chesterfield think we live in, North Korea where dissent from the norm is not allowed?
