I would like to draw everyone on this forums attention to the thread on Five Star DVDS case outcome. This is fucking bullshit by the government. I keep saying over and over and over if we are complacent and accept this shit as OK then we are condoning it. Was 5 star represented by any industry legal eagles? There is so much I want to know about this numbing tragedy. I'm too pissed off to type.

that is bullshit. i just read the other topic with the ruling. the shittiest part of all, though, is that now that have one, they have a precedent to go on. because if one company just got hit with this crap, theres no reason not to try and shut down everything.
pure crap.

So you start a new thread to draw attention to another, already existing thread, but don't include a link?

Porn Scout - The original thread: Problems With 5 Star DVD?
pito05 - This precedent was already well established - look up Miller vs. California (1973) sometime.
America, land of the free...
Anyone know if Five Star plans to file an appeal?

It helps if you link to what you want people to look at instead of just posting with no references given.
Thanks Ohri for doing what the OP should have done.

Thanks for the link Ohri. Being a huge fan of this great industry, I am fucking outraged. What is going to be taken from us next. It bothers me so much that I can purchase the most destructive drug on the planet (booze) every four blocks, in any city. Buy a bigger killer than guns at a supermarket (cigerettes). All without some asshole protesting those real wrongs and issues in society. Yet I have to drive twenty damn miles to buy a porno. I can find ten million idiots on the web all telling me that porn is wrong and bad for life. Yet since the goverment gets a peice of the pie, alcohol is advertised every ten seconds on TV or printed in a magazine. If I can buy a bottle of thunderbird and drown my sorrows in peace, I should be able to buy a porno and jerk off when I want to as well.

I was upset to see that the jury had found even 1 title to be obscene. Obscenities laws should be looked at again and ruled unconstitutional. If people don't like it, they don't have to look at it. But as FREE adults in America, we should have the right to decide for ourselves what we want to look at in the privacy of our own homes.
Great line in "The People vs. Larry Flynt" something about how murder is illegal, taking a picture of murder is legal, hell you may even win a Pulitzer Prize. Sex is legal, but some people want to make taking pictures of sex, illegal. It's not for the government to decide what kind of pictures I can jerk off to.
The reason there isn't enough debate about this issue is because most of America is still not comfortable having honest discussions about sex and sexuality.

I'm outraged by the outrageousness of your outrage.
This case has been going on for years. It's been covered in detail here in the forum all along they way. (Do I search, I've been posting updates and PDFs of the court documents along the way.)
Why the outrage now? The jury ruled on this case back in October.

If you're outraged by this please consider registering to vote as a Republican in your primary/caucus for Ron Paul.

OK, keep voting for people who are dismantling your liberties one at a time. You might also want to look up the FBI's raid of Liberty Dollar.

Surely the King of the Rocket Men will save porn from a cliffhanger of an ending!
The trouble with America is that the left wing liberals will always be outnumbered by the right wing fascist republicans and religious zealots.
But that's democracy for you. You either have to like it or lump it.
Nothing says romance like anal sex.

Because absolutely everyone in America can easily be pigeonholed into one of those two categories.

Election after election seems to say that not only can you pigeonhole people into one of those categories but the real or perceived reality of other options being non-viable means you don't matter if you aren't part of one of those groups. I know plenty of people who are registered as one or the other simply to go to the Primaries.

I always vote for whoever the best person is for the job at hand. I don't want to get into a big political debate here but I do like some of Ron Paul's attributes. Unfortunately when he starts talking foriegn policy he starts sounding a little kooky to me.
I too am concerned about personal liberties and if you look at my profile signature you will see what concerns me most.

Steph Voting for someone who will not be elected is not the answer. No politicians will vote in favor of porn or sex. The right wing is right the battle is over Supreme Court justices and appellate court justices.
I believe Hillary Clinton is our best chance. I don’t believe Obama or Edwards can be elected.
A Supreme Court justice that believes in individual rights to the point of allowing abortions. Will also restore all our rights.
She will also appoint an AG and FBI director that believe terrorist and drug dealers are more important than pornographers.
The next President will appoint 2 to 4 Supreme Court justices. If a republican president appoints them this country will go back to the dark ages.
She won last night we need to help her keep winning.

Absolutely. Politicians have to be reelected. You're not gonna hear them defending porn in a speech unless they want to lose. It's all about the kind of people they put in key judicial positions. I can tell you we can't afford 2 more justices like Alito and Roberts. Or even close. Supreme Court justices don't have to worry about reelection. But their political leanings are still very relevant. I'd rather they be in favor of Constitutionally protected rights. The Constitution can't protect our rights all by itself. It means nothing if the people we elect don't honor it. And voting for someone who won't win is probably a vote for a Republican.
If Bush has taught us anything it's that elected officials can wipe their asses with the Constitution if there's nobody in the government that will prevent them from doing so.

I risk my ass running this site for starters. We provided free advertising for as long as we could for Five Star. I've contributed to various organizations and campaigns. I put my money where my mouth is.
No one worthwhile will ever be elected as long as everyone acts like media sheep. The media is who gave us this "electibility" as voting criteria. Don't let the media decide who runs our country. Hillary will keep antagonizing the world by meddling in the affairs of other countries. She won't stop the FBI from raiding marijuana facilities in states where it's legal. She does not respect the Constitution. She will do whatever is politically expedient. It's not about political parties. It's about pandering.

Steph I basically agree with what you are saying but I really don't like Ron Paul enough to vote for him. I am very undecided at the moment. I wish I had the money to contribute to anti censorship causes but don't. I appreciate what you do here and hope you never encounter any problems whatsoever. I have already found out who some of my real friends are for selling a few dvds and having pornstars on my friends list on myspace. I suppose that's a good thing in the long run. In spite of the adult industry being more mainstream there are still those that are uneducated, self righteous, and holier than thou enough to think that they or the government should be able to tell others how to think,speak,feel and what they can see, read, or hear. I find it all very incredible.

Steph you have to stay in the mainstream or your dismissed as a nut like Ron Paul is. No one is going to let him mess with the monetary system of this country. If a person wants gold they can go buy gold. No one is stopping them. No one is going to let Ron Paul dismantle this government because he doesn’t like it.
I think you’re seeing imaginary threats from Hillary Clinton and ignoring real threats to you and your business from the religious right.
Today Mike Huckabee a southern Baptist preacher is now the leading republican candidate in the national polls.
No one is going to change Washington. The people in Washington like Washington the way it is.

The primary/caucus is where you get a choice. When it comes to the general election I will vote for the lesser of the evils. If you give up real choices before the general we will continue to get stuck with the panderers. I'm not living in fantasy land. I'm well aware of how mainstream America rolls.
Ron Paul would not dismantle government. After 20 years in Congress he's well aware of what you can actually accomplish in Washington. He has a libertarian/constitutional philosophy of government. That doesn't mean he really thinks he can get rid of the IRS or the Dept of Education. All he can do is swing the pendulum back towards less government, which means tiny changes with the big change of bringing our troops home.
Shagdog, please research the FBI raid of Liberty Dollar if you think everyone is so free to buy gold. Our government does not allow competing currencies.
This isn't about my business. I know Huckabee is a whackjob who wears Jesus around his neck. I would vote against him no matter what. He's just one more reason to support a different candidate in the primary. And if you go beyond voting (volunteer, canvass, donate, etc.) then maybe we won't get stuck with the same band of warmongering lobbyist lovers we've been stuck with so long. I don't just support Ron Paul on the internet. I do work for a state politician and am as involved as my patience allows.

It's all about the judges, as far as I'm concerned. 4 more years of a Republican in the White House will pack the court for years to come. Roe vs. Wade will be gone, and while I don't care that much about abortion rights, I do care about the right to privacy and having some checks on government and corporate surveillance.

Steph I live just north of Ron Paul’s congressional district. I am also involved in local and state politics. I have been in discussion with his supporters, been at rallies where he spoke for years. Believe me he’s soften his position publicly a lot. But I don’t believe he has privately.
I first heard of liberty dollar from one of his supporters. I thought it was a scam and I still do. I researched the raid but all I get is the FBI stole your money send us more money to fight them. But I’m always skeptical of people that want me to trade my worthless US dollars for their valuable currency.
Waco and Ruby Ridge bother be more than the Liberty Dollar raid.
I know it is legal to buy gold, sell gold, and have gold in your possession.
“Our government does not allow competing currencies”
This goes back very to early in our government. The states can’t print currency either. I agree with the government. You can’t have people going around printing their own money.
I think you need to get behind a viable candidate in the primary. If you don’t you may end up with a unelectable candidate in the national election. And a Mike Huckabee as president. Remember these same people elected George Bush twice.
I do thank you for this board. I do love coming here and shooting my big mouth off.
