And another good one from itsjustme. Like your style man! That reminds me; I posted on a story about literacy. Tried to mention the book - "D*** and Jane". Fox wouldn't allow me to post it until I got rid of the boy's name! Word not allowed on here, even though it was someone's name many of us grew up with. Sad.

They have no adult stores yet, but want to invoke rules when/if they do get them. Thats smart I guess. Glad to see they arent "dicking around" with it or "pussyfooting" with this.

Upon reading further, you all have really burst my bubble of what a wonderful community Bryant is,..so far above Little Rock. I guess it is just smaller. Of course, we knew for years that Bryant and Benton were getting contaminated because EVERYONE HEARD that the schools were so much better. Well HELLLL

BRYANT....BENTON....ETC...YOU DON'T WANT LITTLE ROCK TO COME TO YOU !!!! I TOLD YOU THAT ABOUT THE STATE FAIR. YOU BETTER LISTEN. Little Rock is a cesspool of crime. Why do you need an ADULT store? Adult stores, X-rated movies, liquor stores help bring your standards down...YOU WILL REGRET IT.

Don't do porn, so don't really care about where they sell it or who buys it. I would like to comment on one thing though. If I lived in your county, I'd vote for Leatherneck for sherriff. I like his ideas concerning patrol cars and professionalism as far as how an officer of the law should look; physically and in uniform. Oh, and we get the same thing here in Pulaski; would you like a deputy to come out?; or we get this - a deputy will call you.

Atomic, the same goes for the Saline County Sheriff Dept. Call them and see what you get. Would you like for them to come out or would you like for a deputy to call you? Never have I seen so many in one place at any given time as I do around where I live. Case and point. Wreck on Salem road on a weekend. Here's what appears to have happened. A Mustang, newer model, teen ager driving, SUV mid size, older man driving. Obviously at the little peak on the road, Mustang was turning or pulled out and the driver of he SUV decided to goes across the other lane, into the ditch and had he turned the wheel a little to the left he would have missed the only tree in his path that was 40 feet off the road. Saline County had the cars and the deputies at this one wreck and both drivers were out of the car talking to each other. Another time. Two in parking lot at the end of Congo and Salem Road talking. One goes by from one direction another comes from the other direction while a man in his car in the Harvest Foods parking lot gets out in plain view, gets a beer out of his cooler in his trunk and drives right past the two sitting there. Another case and point. MOONLIGHTING. Friday and Saturday night. Patrol car sits in the corner of Lincoln Square on Congo and I-30. I would venture to say it might get a little rowdy at the seafood bar sometimes. Moonlighting cost taxpayers money. Taking a patrol car home cost taxpayers money. Cops sitting around doing nothing cost taxpayers money because there is no presence of law enforcement anywhere else. I can't wait to run for Sheriff in 2014. Things will change. I hate a person that is sloppy in uniform. I have an acronym for it. Sloppy, Obese and Lazy. That comes out as SOL. If you are this way when I get elected, you will be this. No more taking cars home, no more moonlighting, no out of shape sloppy deputies. Time to get in shape, create a better appearance for the public, lower medical cost and insurance premiums and do your job.

Aren't there more important things to worry about in Bryant? Like the tons of drugs in the High School, the cops that sit in their patrol cars and play on facebook while on duty, the 35 or so new police cars that were bought when there were function brand new units in service, the fire department that joy rides in the Ladder truck (why do you need a ladder truck in Bryant, Arkansas?) to Wal Mart every day? You could call the police in Bryant because your neighbor cut off your arm and they would say, "I'll take a report, but you're gonna have to go see the PA if you want to have them arrested." I called the police bc somebody was breaking into an abandon house next to me, I was told they could not respond because the owner of the house had to call, WHAT?

FOXYLADY, NOW NOW, Bryant is too exclusive to be in the category you have placed them in. SARCASM. You see the citizens of Bryant think there backside doesn't stink, they live beyond their means and their precious children do know wrong. They drive around in mommy and daddys SUV talking on the phone, texting and doing whatever they want to behind the wheel the same way they learned from mommy and daddy. At least they are learning. If the people of Bryant got caught out in a rain storm their nose would fill up and they would drown. Way too many living beyond their means. Lots of high maintenance going on in Bryant. For those women that wear heels, practice walking in them before going out in public. Glad I live past Bryant and only pass through going to Salem Congo. Why allow an adult store there anyway, it will be like the other ones that open. The city will give them the business license and permits, then they will be taken to court because a church or day care will magically appear next door. It's all a scam. Accountability is key. Little Rock and other coties have these stores, then all of a sudden they realize there is a day care next door. WHO ISSUES THESE PERMITS? Obviously no one goes out to see what is next door or in the area or even looks at records. I guess this is one way to find out just how exclusive you really are when your neighbor sees you going in and out. LITERALLY.

Instead of trying to regulate where these business' operate, maybe you should spend some of that time trying to educate the teens of Bryant on safe sex, and teen pregnancy!!!!! I have seen more TEEN girls pregnant in Bryant then in any other school district! Why the epidemic? Trash raising trash, maybe???
