Man spends week on roof of porn shop Cosmetic salesman protests Kansas obscenity lawsThe Associated Press Updated: 7:15 p.m. ET Nov. 20, 2004SALINA, Kan. - A man spent a week on the roof of one of two adult bookstores in town to protest a movement to have the stores investigated for obscenity. Ray Morris, 38, came down from his perch on top of Behind Closed Doors on Saturday morning after staying in a tent there since the previous Saturday. “I can’t stress enough that I am not promoting porn,” Morris said. “I’m promoting the idea of choice. Everyone has a right to choose whether they want to enter these stores.” Some local residents are gathering signatures in a petition drive to force a grand jury to investigate whether Behind Closed Doors and another store, Priscilla’s, are promoting obscenity by selling sex products. A similar petition drive in nearby Abilene resulted in grand jury indictments against the Lion’s Den adult bookstore. During his stint on the roof, Morris displayed a sign urging passing motorists to honk if they support his cause, but a few people also made obscene gestures toward him, he said. Morris, a cosmetics salesman, said he wants state legislators to change the state’s obscenity laws or remove them altogether. |
