What a waste of money and resources

Will there be an official Office of Dildo Inspections? With Dildo Inspectors making rounds, carefully checking every household for staying within their allotted number of items? Will the billboards aside the vast highways advertise the government hotline for anonymous reporting of infractions?

And if not, well, they're clearly cowards. If you're going to pass a law like that, you have to go all the way!

Seriously though, I sometimes wonder how this period of time will be described in history books 50 years from now.

A Texas jobs program! You too can have a bright future as a state dildo inspector!

I'm interested in seeing a judicial decision on whether a double ended dildo counts as one dildo or two dildos.

If you create a religion with a dildo being recognized by your dogma as official iconography, could you unlock "unlimited dildos" based upon religious freedom exceptions?

Bonus points if the religion is a sect of christanity.

It's to allow one for each day of the week except for Sunday, as Sunday is The Lord's Day.

Walmart has sex toys?

I have never seen one in walmart in my entire life.

Does this mean that independent sex shops will thrive in texas? It could be a good thing for small business.

Me, who lived in Texas for 22 years.
