Mike Allen, Hamilton County prosecutor:
"I personally fully support their mission, and we have kept in touch with them. Phil and his group are conservatives, so they are automatically, by some, labeled as Neanderthals and Nazis. It's a shame."
Carl Lindner III, co-president of American Financial, and a member of CCV's advisory board:
"I have been a supporter of the CCV organization because I and the Lindner family are interested in promoting good morals for families and the community."
Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine and veteran of decades of Tristate legal battles over pornography:
"When you check into a hotel and order up a movie, it doesn't have any effect on Phil Burress. Americans really don't want the government in their bedrooms, but Phil won't buy that logic. In the last 30 years, I've seen the adult industry go from zero business to a $12 billion industry - and that indicates Phil Burress and the CCV are not winning."
Robin Piper, Butler County prosecutor, criticized by Mr. Burress for not working quickly enough against porn:
"It's not the place of a special interest group to publicly try to apply pressure in order to fulfill their own personal goals. People in my office represent the entire county, not just one group. ... It's not my goal to prosecute the law in order to get Christian values in the community."
Anthony Munoz, NFL Hall of Famer, member of the CCV's advisory board:
"They do stand for what is right, decent and clean. That's why I respect them and have been involved with them for years."
Terry Wolfe, owner of Bristol's Show Club & Revue:
"The problem with people like Phil Burress is if you don't fit into his agenda, he'll do whatever it takes to try to paint a picture that these businesses are very bad, they are causing moral degeneration of our society."
Thomas Grossmann, attorney, Mason city councilman, and member of CCV board of directors:
"I am continually dismayed at the level (society is) sinking to. The only way freedom works is if you have a moral people who respect rights."
Jimmy Flynt, Larry's brother, operator of Hustler store in Monroe:
"(Mr. Burress) is getting a little news with taking on the hotels, and I hope they don't bow to him. I remember years ago he tried to tell convenience stores that people wouldn't buy gas or milk from them if they sold adult magazines, but it wasn't true."
