Foreign Flags Not Allowed Here

This is Pahrump, a dusty town of about 35000 people 60 miles of Las Vegas, where the main attraction has been for years a few whore houses like the Chicken Ranch and Sheri’s Ranch, where tourists and locals alike can get their rocks off for a few bucks with a wide selection of prostitutes on premises.
With lots of time in their hands and little to entertain them, I guess it was only natural the elected officials had to pass some ordinance to bring notoriety to this hole-in-the-desert. Sure enough they found it in the form of a ban to display foreign (Mexican) flags in public and making English the “official language” of the town. The later is possibly due to clarify the mental confusion of residents who may not remember that English has been spoken there for quite some time now and Pahrump is indeed part of the U.S. where the predominant language is English.
So, from now on, when you to the brothels in Pahrump, remember to get laid in English and use a U.S. flag in the antenna of your car. Unless of course you are a tourist in which case you may try horny diplomatic immunity. And, oh, yes, like in any other place in the country, you can still get a decent burrito at the local Mexican restaurant and burn an American flag in front of City Hall. Hey even in Pahrump they’ll respect a good meal and the First Amendment!
Enjoy a few pictures of the yahoos in action in this enlightened city.
