Adult clubs in one Florida city are suing over a new law that raised the minimum age for strippers from 18 to 21.
The law in Jacksonville was enacted March 5 in a bid to reduce human trafficking. But lawyers for the clubs, including the lead plaintiff Wacko’s, contend in a federal lawsuit that it violates the First Amendment by restricting the ability of performers to dance.
“The Constitution does not permit the deprivation of First Amendment rights based on the age of ... citizens who have attained the age of 18,” attorneys Gary Edinger and James Benjamin argue in a complaint filed in the names of 13 businesses and four dancers, two of them under age 21.

If they honestly George Washington would have been upset by depriving dirty old men the chance to creep all over 18 year olds rather than 21 year olds, they might be reading the Constitution a little "liberally".
As soon as somebody says "It's unconstitional" in about 90% of cases you just know they're trying to do something that makes no fucking sense whatsoever.
