Strip club 1; Phoenix moral values 0

“Daddy, what does ‘all-nude’ mean?”
This kind of question is going to be heard more often on the streets of downtown Phoenix very shortly if something is not done to prevent Palace Cabaret from sticking their business where it doesn’t belong.
In the heart of Phoenix, one business is threatening the family-oriented theme of the area with a club containing provocative, naked women. Palace Cabaret, an adult cabaret, could possibly be the newest addition to a community where family morals come before thongs and bras.
There is only a small chance that the business will be denied operation, due to the fact that it is complying with the city’s codes.
As of now, a few technical errors are preventing the opening, but those can be fixed very easily, which will help enable the club to open as early as January of next year.
But the real question is, even though the company fits within all the legal boundaries of the city codes, does it still have the right to open its risqué business in the middle of an area that is clearly not made for this type of business, and could possibly do major damage to the area?
We are coming out of an election year in which many American citizens chose one man to lead our country based on his morals and convictions and yet the American people cannot stand firmly on their own. By allowing this business to operate in its desired location, Phoenix shows that it does not care what children are exposed to at such a young age.
What happened to our morals based on raising children in a healthy environment and not exposing them to anything that could harm them in any way?
What has happened is that society has become desensitized to its current surroundings. Depictions of violence, drugs, and sex, no longer shock the public as in the past, which is causing parents to raise generations of children to believe the same revolting thing.
If the owner of a chain of strip clubs wants to open more cabarets, that is fine, just don’t do it in a location that is not suitable for its surroundings. Strip clubs are for adult’s eyes only, not to be seen by children.
Society needs to find their morals again and hold on tight before we become even more desensitized to our world as we know it to be now.
