if only it were that easy bodily fluid is how STDs are passed....

Those freaks of cocks guys with the rubber dicks should fuck off and die. That site and their videos is one of the worst ideas ever in porn.

Any time I see one of my favorite girls do a scene with them I skip over it now and think less of the girl. Makes me think the girl has no class or integrity for her job. I know that seems like a contradiction for a porn star but fucking guys with big rubber cocks and fake cum?

It's not exactly legal to film pornography outside California. The Miller case applied there only, so moving en banc to Florida is not an option. And given the political bent of many states near Cali (Arizona, Texas, even Nevada), the "porn industry" won't find a warm, cozy home any time soon.

This is turning out to be a very, very bad year for pornography enthusiasts. First the way to acquire porn was removed, now porn itself is under threat.

I think we're preparing the way for the new president.

If we take 1985 as the point people really started hearing about Aids & look how many people doing straight porn have caught it on set, then the number is very small.

The vast majority are gay actors-who unlike the straight actors are not subject to testing & transexual stars.

More and more on websites I see folks talking about moving the industry out of the area. Most are talking about AZ where some counties allow legal brothels.

legal brothels = more "amateurs" screwing the porn starlets on and off the camera. mark my words

The Miller case applies everywhere, seeing as it was a Federal Supreme Court case dealing with the 1st Amendment. You must be thinking of California v. Freeman, which was a CA Supreme Court case where the state was charging that hiring porn actors was equivalent to soliciting prostitution. This case was overturned on the basis that the objective of paying a model to film porn isn't for the personal sexual gratification of the porn producer, but to produce a piece of media. A similar case happened in New Hampshire, where NH Supreme Court decided the same thing.

It is certainly debatable to wonder if FL would also attempt to charge porn companies under a prostitution angle, but seeing as there are already 2 legal precedents in other states I'd say it's unlikely, and particularly if the porn business was located in a city like Miami.

Another possible city to move to is Philadelphia, where a bunch of porn is already being filmed. (Btw the whole National A-1 business hinged on the guy pretty blatantly pimping under escorts.com and money laundering, and not on pornography distribution per se).

Are there any opinion polls for this petition?

If passed, it's just for LA, not for entire CA, right? Can't neighbouring towns allow working without condoms?

There must be a way.
