Here's an Iowa Mayor I'm Proud Of. -
07-03-2015, 06:47 PM
I got a call from Tipton the other day. It's an Iowa town about an hour east of here. The caller asked that I not share his name.
After checking out the caller's concern, I went right to the office of Tipton's Mayor, Shirley Kepford. When I entered her office she was crying. She knew what I was there for.
"Shirley, honey," I said, "There is no need for you to cry. You did not put that nude art piece in Hugo Stumbo's art store. He put it there."
"I know," she sobbed. "But what can I do about it? We have no city ordinance against nude art. People, even children, go by it everyday and it needs to be taken down."
I took a deep breath. "Shirley, honey, I'll walk you down to Hugo's store. I want you to go right in there and tell him to take the nude down because it's sin. Get your purse and let's go."
She did it. Right afterwards I called the press to give her the credit she deserves.
Mayor wants nude painting moved from gallery's front window
Associated Press 11:28 a.m. CDT July 1, 2015
TIPTON, Iowa — The mayor of an eastern Iowa city wants a downtown art gallery to remove a painting of a partially nude woman from the gallery's front window.
Hugh Stumbo owns the gallery in Tipton, a city of about 3,200 people in eastern Iowa. Stumbo told Cedar Rapids television station KCRG that he expected some complaints about his painting, but he was surprised when the police chief told him the mayor wanted the painting relocated inside the gallery.
Stumbo says the chief acknowledged there was no city ordinance requiring him to move the artwork.
Mayor Shirley Kepford says people have told her "this was not the kind of art they wanted to see, and right down on Main Street where everybody walks by."

Bless you, Mr Mayor, Sir, for your support of a weak and feeble woman (though my husband asks "What was she thinking of, running for office, and whatever were the people of Tipton thinking of, electing her?")
This part of the story is confusing me:

I was surprised too - shocked, even. Why was the offending item not destroyed? I know that you, Mr Mayor, Sir, would not have settled for it merely being moved.

This is the kind of Leadership we can aspire to: elected officials laying down the (moral) law with the full power of the State to back them up. I believe even the backward mooslims are ahead of us in this respect, with their Mutaween patrols ensuring perfect adherence to the rule of Islam. Of course they are 100% wrong about the message but the enforcement is spot on.

Well, thank goodness! The artist will hopefully burn in Hell for probably causing men to spill seed (Genesis 38:9-10) and/or lusting after her (Matthew 5:28).

I called by little friend, Mayor Shirley, today. She was feeling much better about the whole thing. She promised to bake me a pie the next time I come to Tipton.

This is calamity! What if innocent children saw this and discovered that women have breasts?

Mr Mayor, Can you post a clear picture of the "art piece" so we can get the full scope of the depravity?
Mark 13:22
“For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.”

If you want to see porn, my friend, go to Tipton yourself. Beg the art store for a peek. We do not display porn in Freehold.

Bless you, Mr Mayor, Sir, for your firm stance on these matters. We Ladies of Landover need to be confident that these forums are a safe haven from the filth which pollutes the rest of the interwebs.
I imagine that our young Mor on friend is even now looking up the discount bus fare to Tipton. Sad, isn't it?

Thank you for your firm stance against such nonsense and utter trash. We ladies rest easy knowing that the True Christians refuse to have filth all over this good website.
