Hi all. I have a question...is anyone else having trouble getting their tapes/DVDs delivered because of the state you live in? Utah for years has been shut down, I know. I'm in Alabama though and while it's always been an uptight area sexually I've never had problems before getting stuff mailed in. I hadn't ordered anying for a few months though, concentrating on my mainstream collection, and I find out today that the place I had been doing business with wouldn't ship here any longer and I check around and AdultDVDEmpire, Five Star and Excalibur have also cut off mailings here due to the "laws" of the area which I don't think have changed since the last time I received an order. WTF?!? Does *anyone* still ship to this freaking state? Are there any store reps on here that can comment? Are there any ways of getting around it?

So, LongduckDong, how did you vote in the last local and national elections? Because that is the point. I'm the shipping manager for an online DVD store and we'd love your business, but no WAY will we send to Alabama with its knuckles-dragging-on-the-ground legal approach to sex. The problem here is your local and state DAs, and their father-figure John Ashcroft. They would love to work together -- a local procsecution backed by Federal assistance -- to put me in jail for selling you stuff that the rest of the country can get. So don't get mad at us; you voted them in.

Thanks for the reply. FWIW, for the last several years I've voted for the least right-wing candidates available in my state, so your comment about my voting them into office is moot. BTW, what online DVD store do you work for?

Long --

good point. I'm sorry you have to suffer for the weirdness of your state officials. I work for AdultVideoNation.com. We went through a lot of angst when we first opened over this issue. After a lot of trial and error, we came up with a list of 6 states and 3 cities where we won't ship.

Don't you wish all Americans benefited equally from the freedoms in the Constitution? What a weird situation!

In the July issue of Penthouse, there is a great article by Alan Dershowitz (that's a sentence that I never thought would ever come out of me!!!) about the Alabama Supreme Couts Chief justice Roy Moore.

This guy has invited Christian ministers to his courtroom to open jury sessions with a prayer, refuses to treat people of other religions with any respect, has overturnes a lower court decision regarding child custody case and given this child to an abusive father because the mother was in a relationship with another woman. In this case he wrote an opinion that stated that homosexuality is an "inherent evil against which children must be protected".

When someone like this is the head of the Supreme Court of a state, I wouldn't ship to that state if I were a retailer either.
