Editor:
I recently learned that an adult store is opening downtown on Main Street, and my reaction was, “Are you kidding me?”
It seems like this town manages to take two steps back for every step forward. Whether we like it or not, the external image of this community is defined by Main Street. Do we really want a porn shop there? I think not.
I realize there is a market for smut, and I would not deny anyone access to a product, no matter how distasteful, that is legal. Nevertheless, the heart of the downtown is not the appropriate place for it. I am certain this “business” will eventually fail. I just hope it is sooner than later.
