Nuns Sue Strip Club in Illinois
A convent of nuns in suburban Chicago has filed a lawsuit against a neighboring strip club they say plays throbbing music while the nuns try to pray. The Sisters of St. Charles named Club Allure Chicago and the village of Stone Park in their lawsuit filed Friday in Cook County Circuit Court. The sisters’ suit states that “pulsating and rhythmic staccato-beat noise and flashing neon and or strobe lights” that disturb the nuns. Strip club manager Robert Itzkow said, “We spent an awful lot of money to make sure that this kind of thing would not occur. The whole thing is just a question of ‘we don’t like you; you don’t conform to our religious beliefs.'” He said the club’s dancers “aren’t monsters. They’re daughters; they’re mothers, and some of them are Catholics too.”
