If there are, I bet they're losing money like a summabitch.

Anywho, I'm surrounded by them. 2 on Thornton Rd, 1 on Six Flags Drive, 1 on my end of Bankhead.

Even if one closed at midnight, they'd still be losing hours of sales that the 24 hour locations would rack up on.

I honestly couldn't tell you one in any state that I've seen them in that wasn't 24 hours.

'cause the majority of people on the registry aren't pedos at all.

All exist in my neighbourhood. It's quite a nice neighbourhood too, it's just in the center of a major capital city so yeah, there are a few other people around and apparently they all need amenities.


>*military recruitment center
>*24 hour waffle house
>*waste treatment plant

I've got a 24 hour diner within walking distance.

Never lived near anything smellier than a drain or more militaristic than the Salvation Army though. The waste treatment is about the only thing I'd think twice on, I guess. I'd probably end up standing outside a military recruitment center handing out leaflets for IT courses.

but I currently have all of them (no waffle house, but a 24hr. diner) in my neighborhood except for the waste treatment plant.

The biggest problem we've ever had is that the transport service for the group home uses one of those mini bus/limo things...and the driver can't drive for shit....

If the area is zoned appropriately for whatever exposure is going to go in there, then I think a resident has an uphill battle complaining.

If the local government is changing the zoning to generate add'l tax revenue, foist off public works onto a private entity, cave to pressures from the business sector, etc., then yeah, NIMBY.
