http://people.bakersfield.com/home/Blog/talkofthetown/6034 Government! What's with those guys? Seems that some Maryland polititian wants to ban fake bull testicles and other anatomically explicit decorations from vehicles. The measure was filed in the General Assembly&nbsp; by Delegate LeRoy E. Myers Jr., who says children shouldn&rsquo;t be exposed to giant plastic gonads dangling from pickup truck trailer hitches, Associated Press reported. In a sneaky attempt to get women on his side, the bill&nbsp; would ban displaying images of naked human breasts, buttocks or genitals, with offenses punishable by fines of up to $500. Where is the voice of reason in all of this? The American Civil Liberties Union objected to Myers&rsquo; bill. &ldquo;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,&rdquo; ACLU of Maryland spokeswoman Meredith Curtis wrote in an e-mail. First body parts. Next Bobble-heads. Where is this all going to end? Posted by Steve E. Swenson Government! What's with those guys?
