Maybe they are worried about the return marauding pirate descendants of Black Jack. ... but they gotta live someplace, right?

Oh wait they have redifined family ... again, Under the pressure of ACLU, good for the plaintiffs but it seems we still have the issue of whether or not the govt should be defining what a family is and is not.

BLACK JACK, Mo. - The city council in this St. Louis suburb has revised an ordinance that prohibited some unmarried couples from obtaining housing permits, a measure that drew scrutiny and debate nationwide.

The council voted 7-0 Tuesday to change the definition of a family. The vote came a week after the American Civil Liberties Union filed suit over the city's failure to provide a housing permit for an unmarried couple, Fondray Loving and Olivia Shelltrack.
