Good neighbors are never appreciated.  Why does this stuff always happen in the little hick towns full of unappreciative intolerant types?

Having briefly lived in Duncanville which is a southern suburb of Dallas I would like to point out that it is almost impossible to see a separation between it, so far as urbanization goes, and about 40 miles to the north in the northern suburb of Dallas where I currently live. Hicksville it ain't unless you include the "heart" of Texas in that assessment. That being said, where was this friendly game of Twister when I was there???

Notice how they get their panties in a twist (pun fully intended) not because of the supposed immorality, but them not getting their cut of extortion... err, I mean tax money?

Maybe they should have invited the neighbors to the parties.

No, 90% of US society lives all crammed together in big cities, where they form massive liberal voting blocks.  That's why electoral votes cannot be tied directly to population, otherwise the political will of the people who occupy the vast geographical majority of the US would be utterly suppressed by the teeming masses who huddle together for warmth and look to the government to solve all their problems.

See, it's all the liberal's fault! ;)

Just another case of overcrowding and activity inappropriate in size or scale for the neighborhood.  If they had six or eight or occasionally even a dozen people who would notice?

As I mentioned, Duncanville is not an island nor even a community separate from that named DFW. It may have been 40 years ago but certainly no longer. It is what is commonly referred to as a "bedroom" community.

Duncanville, which proclaims itself "The Perfect Blend of Family, Community and Business," is an unlikely venue for a neighborhood swinger club.
Pretty funny line, the lifestyle isn't something limited to 'Las Vegas' or big cities, it's part of the American tapestry in towns big and small.  Perhaps research for stories is going out of vogue.

You might be amazed at what some of your neighbors do on the weekends....

Hehe. This has been being covered localy for a while now.
Have any of you seen the owners of "The Cherry Pit"?
The dude was on the tube and looked like he had skidded a half mile down a bad gravel road ........on his face.
The chick could be a double for Moma Cass back in the old days. Save the whales!!!!! :rofl Makes you wonder who was visiting this dive.
They were turning a residential area into a traffic nightmare. Lining the streets with cars where parking is not allowed, blocking driveways, etc.
How stupid can you get and expect to not be bothered?
If they want to run a swingers dive, they need to take it to the country and out of the residential section.
Then Frankenface, Shezilla and the rest of the Challneged Sex For Lunch Bunch
can bop their brains out.
Democracy is two wolves deciding on what to eat. Freedom is a well armed sheep protesting the vote.

I was looking for some old pics of Duncanville when I ran across this. It's not Duncaville but is too bizarre not to share.

I'm not sure but IIRC, during the last election there was some comment that the entire election would be decided by carrying about 7 specific states if it was solely based on the "popular" vote. That would in effect, disenfranchise everyone living in the other 43 states.
