Adult movie theater:

As a taxpayer in Santa Ana, I was amazed, appalled and disgusted by the fact that the city has placed itself in a position where it may have to pay attorney’s fees to an adult movie theater. It is outrageous for the city to have to spend taxpayers’ money in trying to close down this movie theater.

I wonder who is more perverted, the actors in the movie or the people responsible for directing someone to sit and watch, film and record these movies for 10 years at taxpayer expense.
