At least the Gimp can still shop in West Hollywood . . .

The [West Hollywood] City Council voted 5-0 after a seven hour meeting that ended early Tuesday to proceed with an ordinance prohibiting the sale of clothing or personal attire made of animal hair, wool or fur. The sale of leather isn’t considered a violation.

Ban the sale of leather in West Hollywood?!  The sales tax revenue would tank.

BTW, the fellow above is "Sir" Joe Ricci, aka Sal Bruno, a middle-aged leather queen and fetish model, with whom I went to Cardinal Spellman HS back in the 70's.  He and I got into a pissing match on Facebook because he did not like my stance on gay marriage (against it) and told me not to expect a wedding invitation when the day came when he could marry his partner.  Really?  I was embarrassed - Cardinal Spellman is an outstanding high school (USSC Justice Sonia Sotomayor is an alumna) and that's the best come back he could muster?
