A controversial Virginia lawmaker is trying to introduce new legislation to ban rubber testicles from being fitted to the back of trucks.
Lionel Spruill, known for his failed attempt in 2005 to ban baggy pants, says the motivation for his latest idea came from a constituent.
The man complained that he had been left speechless when his six-year-old daughter spotted a pair and asked him what they were.
Mr Spruill agreed to act: “I said, ‘Sir, I’m going to be the laughing stock, but I’m going to do it’,” he told the Virginian-Pilot.
Truck drivers who sport fake testicles on the back of their vehicles would risk a $250 fine under his proposal.
“Well, dear, you see, it’s like a bulldog with tires and fog lights… do you understand?”

Thats almost as ridiculous as Nichols Hills Oklahoma when it made national news by passing an ordinance banning the parking of pickup trucks in front of the homes,they either had to be garaged or parked in the backyard on a concrete pad no less than 4″ thick,reinforced and sloped at minimum of 2 degrees and preceeded by a paved driveway.
And now they want to take away our Truknutz.
He is liable to face censure from the NRA,the Army of God and probably the wrath of legions of Dale Earnhardt worshippers.
If that passes there then Coburn,Inhoffe and Istook will have to pass it here.
I got an old set of grapeshot from somewhere in my families past that I can proudly dangle from the reciever hitch of my dodge turbo diesel.
I better weld them on,Some yokel will try to abscond with them.
That should make a nice photo to e-mail the Three Stooges I mentioned above.

This came to mind right after my reply:

They have fake nuts on their trucks because their real nuts are so small.

I’m a little confused — if the semi has nuts, is the penis the truck itself, or the prick behind the wheel? (Sorry, I couldn’t resist.)
