Section 278.022 - Restriction of adult motion picture theaters and bookstores: Declaration of legislative intent1. It is hereby declared a matter of legislative declaration and belief that the morals of the youth of the State of Nevada are threatened by the presence of adult motion picture theaters and adult bookstores which are appearing throughout some of the communities of our State. These establishments and the type and character of the merchandise and paraphernalia sold in them create an aura of mystery and enticement for Nevada's youngsters that is increased by the lascivious and suggestive advertising that is often employed to promulgate the availability of these products and services. It is the intent of the Legislature to minimize the exposure of our youth to the influence of these establishments.2. It is further the firm belief that the moral values of our youth and therefore the mores of our society are in great part influenced and determined by the family, but are affected by the presence of an exposure to these establishments; therefore, it is the firm belief of the Legislature that society has a vital duty and role in the protection of our moral fiber and standards for the well-being of us all as a society.3. The location of these establishments is of vital concern to society in regard to their location near areas where our youth may learn, play, pass by, or would be exposed to their advertising, window displays, or the general atmosphere encompassing their operation.Added to NRS by 1973, 321Added to NRS by 1973, 321
