| rogrtipe RogReviews.com 1103 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Nov 24 2007 : 4:15PM Traci's movies are illegal in the US so regardless of where you ordered them, purchasing/owning them could be a problem. Is ordering Cuban cigars a crime? Rog Reviews [Link] |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Posted - Nov 26 2007 : 5:00PM The only Traci Lords movie that is legal in Canada is the same one as in the US. Your friend bought illegal tapes, which explains why they were several generation old bootleg copies. Don't believe me? Call a few Canadian distributors and ask if they sell Traci Lords stuff.

| Noriinrad Member 185 Posts 3/05 | Posted - Nov 26 2007 : 6:55PM I understand selling and buying her videos here in the U.S. is illegal. But is buying them from a european or canadian distributor and having them mailed here to the U.S. illegal as well? [Link] |
| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Posted - Nov 26 2007 : 7:13PM Also I am sure that you won't find any Canadian company that claims to have it. If anything you might be able to find that stuff by wandering into porn shops in Canada and asking about it. Very well it might be sold from behind the counter in some places. Even so it is not legal in Canada and, once you acquire it, if you got caught taking it across the border the consequences would be severe. I am not doubting you can find Traci Lords material, just that it isn't legal in North America, Canada is not Europe. [Link] |
| backdoorman Senior Member Shake for me girl... I wanna be your backdoorman ! 2776 Posts 10/07 | Posted - Nov 26 2007 : 9:41PM I emailed a guy about the legality of said movies and he said he had been selling them for years with no problems. I haven't nor do I intend to buy any of them but I find this very curious indeed. [Link] |

| budtugley Senior Member One man's trash can be the next man's treasure. 1187 Posts 1/04 | Posted - Nov 27 2007 : 3:32PM When I bought them they were legal but afterwards, when Tracy was discovered to be underage, her videos were declared to be 'kiddie porn' and they are now illegal. There is a legal concept called, 'Ex Post Facto' which means 'after the fact' and it's used when prosecutors try offenders who did something that was legal at the time but was subsequently declared to be illegal. 'We don't like what you did so we made a law against it and now we're going to prosecute you.' Imagine if you live in a state that has a .1 presumed to be drunk law and a driver blows a .09. The offender will still receive some citation, most likely he/she was pulled over for some offense, but drunk driving won't be one of them. Then, the legislature passes a .08 drunk driving law the next week and they try to prosecute you under the new law. At the time of the offense, the law was .1 and that applies, not the 'after the fact' new law that was passed. I don't know for certain if those videos which were legal when I bought them, can get me prosecuted. I'm certain they can be confiscated but I'm not too sure about the legality of ownership. By the way, the passage of time has taken it's toll on those videos. They are much darker now, the videos were OK when they were newer but now it's harder to view them as the picture has deteriorated noticably. I never did try to transfer them to DVD, and I've never transferred any of the 2500 or so VHS videos I own onto DVD. I wonder about the legality of that. [Link] |

| morbidthoughts All-Star Member Big cats scare me but... 3627 Posts 1/03 | Posted - Nov 27 2007 : 7:45PM If you continue to possess the tapes, you are possessing child pornography and can be prosecuted for it. [Link] |

| conquistador Deactivated User Hellhamster. 2947 Posts 10/03 | Posted - Nov 27 2007 : 7:56PM I haven't checked recently but as of about 3 years ago I know of at least 2 porn shops in Toronto where you can buy underage Traci Lords movies (on VHS). It still isn't "legal" here and never made it past the Ontario Film Review Board and never would. It may seem legal simply because, for the powers that be it is not worth their effort to stop sales of crappy bootleg tapes when they could go after Max Hardcore videos (for instance).
