Oklahoma is safe again! →[More:]
After a three week investigation including an undercover sting, Pocola's (town with a huge population of about 4,000) only porn store has been shut down. I like that they said they expect to not only arrest the owners but also the employees and customers. "Sir did you buy that plastic vagina? You are under arrest!"

I am sure all of the meth labs are of far less concern to the health and safety of the citizens than pr0n, so I guess everybody can sleep safely now. =P

They should have just left it. And then when the next tornado rips through town -- free porn!

Good cuz pron belongs on teh internets.

When I was 17 a store in my town was raided for having pornographic videos. Among the videos seized was The Black Hole.

With a name like Pocola, you've gotta be tough.

arse_hat, that's hilarious!

This article is excellent; it totally reads like satire.

After several weeks of undercover investigations, Pocola police raided Adult World, accusing store owners of violating several Oklahoma obscenity laws. Police are still at the store, several hours after the 6 p.m. raid.

Officers said they could be there all night investigating.

"You'll be shocked to find out what people were doing"

Is that a bet?

They didn't mention "sex acts" on the news earlier. Maybe they had a viewing room or something. The policeman (chief?) on the news was stammering and wild-eyed like he had just arrested a bunch of murderers or something. "There are churches near here!" Was the porn crawling out the window and going to the church?

Still better than taking the law into your own hands.

That's not a euphemism.

I can't believe these people are marginalizing porn! What's next on their list, breakfast?
