CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Police were called to a popular SouthPark Mall store on Monday because of racy books, and officers told Urban Outfitters to move the merchandise or face possible criminal charges.

And now, a local pastor is considering protesting the store.

Pastor Joe Cauley said he was “really outraged” after shopping at Urban Outfitters. He said the edgy clothing store is a little too edgy.

“It was full of sexually explicit materials,” Cauley said. “There’s books on sexual positions. Sex toys, phrases, everything but porn video on this table and it’s right beside the ‘Hello Kitty’ stuff… It’s right there in the center of the store in plain view for anybody at any age to purchase.”

Pastor calls for removal of sexually explicit material

So he complained to the store, mall management and the police.

“The mall management was like it was no big deal, the store management as well, (saying) ‘they’re just trying to sell products,’” Cauley said.

We tried contacting both SouthPark and Urban Outfitters but got no comment. The police tell us some of the merchandise is right on the line of the law, and they gave the store a week to move some of the most risqué material.

“We shouldn’t have to filter through that mess to shop,” Cauley said.

We went back to the store Monday evening and it seemed they had indeed moved some of the most graphic materials, but the pastor says that’s not enough.

That’s why he says he’s considering protesting the store even though it appears they moved some of the most hardcore stuff; we couldn’t be sure because they wouldn’t tell us when we asked.
