“Our family-oriented retailers should reflect the values of the communities they serve," Hickland said in a statement, according to Chron. “Parents do not consent to their children being exposed to obscene devices while shopping for toothpaste.”
As a parent, I consent, so fuck you. Also, there’s nothing obscene about them. They’re in tasteful boxes, not flopping around on open display.
If you’re so concerned about reflecting community values, leave it up to the communities to decide. You won’t, though, because you don’t actually care. You just want to ensure people only have orgasms on your terms.
Why are Republicans so obsessed with sex? It’s weird and gross.

I’m beginning to wonder how society would change if we were to just do away with the concept of something being “obscene”
I bet a fair amount would chill the fuck out if they had a vibrator.
Or 6.
Or, heavens forbid, 7
If they are finding dildos next to the toothpaste, that’s a dumb walmart employee. Toothpaste is horrible lube. No more minty holes!
It’s the “things that go in mouth” section
But, the only way to stop a bad guy with 7 dildos is a good guy with 7 dildos
The Texas government fears the person with 7 dildos. The prophecy foretold they will bring about the fall of christian values and begin The Age of Antifa.
Walmart sells sex toys?!?
Anything can be a sex toy if you’re creative enough
Better put back some of those cucumbers, the thot police are gonna cum for you.
Yeah, been that way for at least a couple years. Ours used to have them out in the open, and you could just grab one alongside some bandaids or Tylenol; they put them behind glass just a few months ago.
Wow!
All that I have ever seen at Walmart is a small vibrator. They are sold near the condoms and lube.
So 6 dildos is OK for the Texas government, but 7? Straight to jail. What a weird distinction.
Also, who the fuck owns 6+ dildos? I mean I get there is variety, but there are only so many variations of dick-shaped devices you can make. Wanting to have a different one for every day of the week? Not judging. I’m just genuinely curious here. LOL.
You can diddle yourself 6 days a week, but on THE LORD’S DAY you have to go to church to get diddled.
As the Good Lord intended. Amen.
Some people collect them. There are a lot of artisanal makers out there who sell really elaborate sculpted designs. I sell the silicone they are made out of, so many of my customers make them. One of those customers had a technical problem where their end users had issues with the silicone bonding to glass shelves in their display cabinet. So yeah, many people own more than 6 of them.
Don’t buy sex toys at Walmart. I feel like that’s some kind of heavy metal poisoning just waiting to happen
You’d think Walmart would come out swinging over this. They basically have infinite money at this point, and a government is indirectly threatening to hurt their profit. You’d think their lawyers and/or lobbyist would be all over this.
