No balls allowed

A controversial Virginia lawmaker is trying to introduce new legislation to ban rubber testicles from being fitted to the back of trucks.

Lionel Spruill, known for his failed attempt in 2005 to ban baggy pants, says the motivation for his latest idea came from a constituent.

The man complained that he had been left speechless when his six-year-old daughter spotted a pair and asked him what they were.

Mr Spruill agreed to act: "I said, 'Sir, I'm going to be the laughing stock, but I'm going to do it'," he told the Virginian-Pilot.

Truck drivers who sport fake testicles on the back of their vehicles would risk a $250 fine under his proposal.

"They're offensive to some folks," said Mr Spruill, a Chesapeake Democrat. "It's OK to express yourself, but citizens have the right not to be subjected to something vulgar."

Spruill said he became concerned when he learned that the truck accessories had got larger as their popularity had increased.

"How big are they going to go?" he said. "When will it stop?"

But John Saller, owner of bullsballs.com, laughed off Mr Spruill's campaign. He said he sold several hundred thousand last year, ranging in size from two-and-a-half to 10 inches.

"It's a novelty. It's funny. It doesn't have anything to do with being macho," he insisted.

STFU Mr. Spruill! Don't want to see balls while you're driving? Close your eyes! Sheesh.

I saw them on the back of a hummer jacked up really high. They were yellow like the color of the hummer gross and funny at the same time why do stupid ideas show off nuts.

Yup, I've seen the 10" flesh colored variety dangling from a pickup .... it even had veins on it

It is really gross, especially when they aren't silver or other abnormal colors...
