Atlanta Adult Entertainment: Three Vie for Sandy Springs Council Seat

Posted on March 31st, 2011 in Atlanta adult entertainment

The moderator asked if the city should have a role in fighting adult entertainment

“I know the basis of this question and I don’t like it. It’s targeted at one candidate [Williams],” Jackson said. “From a moral standpoint, I’m a mother, a Christian. I don’t think it’s a good atmosphere to have here. I know, for the people whoown adult entertainment establishments, it’s a constitutional fight for freedom of speech. There’s a problem getting engaged in fighting off existing owners. There are consequences to the cost of litigation.”
Williams says if there is anyone who knows how to stop new unwanted adult entertainment center from opening in Sandy Springs, it’s him. “I do have a [business] interest in adult entertainment,” Williams said. “It’s a multi-billion dollar industry. I don’t expect people to accept it. I have no interest in [new] adult entertainment coming to Sandy Springs. It’s not accepted in the community. I will stand behind the voters and say no.” Williams added later that he has the knowledge to fight it. “That’s a level of experience no one else can bring to the table,” Williams offered, when asked to explain.
