The saga continues … Meridian, Mississippi has changed their minds again. Fortune-telling is now legal.
City council voted 3-1 on Tuesday in favour of rescinding the longstanding, and hotly debated ban on fortune-telling in the city.
Threats of legal action by the American Civil Liberties Union prompted the change of heart. A lawsuit would be expensive, and the city would likely lose on constitutional grounds.
But not all councillors were convinced, and psychic readers won’t be able to set up shop just anywhere in Meridian.
Though such businesses are now legal, according to the Sun Herald, business zoning classifications for where they’ll be allowed will be highly restrictive.
