Strippers: Ordinance a naked attack on strip clubs
By GREG BLUESTEIN, Associated Press writer
ATLANTA (AP) — The five exotic dancers were regulars at a popular Atlanta strip club until a city ordinance aimed at underage drinking threatened their jobs. On Monday they took their case to Georgia’s top court, arguing the law is a naked attempt to target nude dancing spots.

He accused city council members of adopting the ordinance with no evidence that the dancers were underage drinkers, and called it a misplaced effort to single out strip clubs instead of other problem spots.

City attorney Amber Ali Robinson countered that the ordinance doesn’t ban women under 21 from nude dancing — only from dancing in the strip clubs that make most of their revenue from selling alcohol.
