It isn’t fair, which is why producers want two IDs not because of 2257 (because one is enough) but to confirm the 1st ID is real.

That doesn’t seem very fair.

You’re wrong Karmafan. In accordance with the law, if a person uses a fakeid it is your fault. A person has even gone to jail over it.

Its not your fault if they used a fake ID and the person looks 18+. Its not like a 10 year old had a fake ID saying they were 22.

This article bothers me. It falls just short of being a fairy tale version of porn history. Saying that Porn became legal in July of 1969 because Denmark lifted it’s ban on Pornography spits in the eye of many of us who were there at the beginning of the real fight for our freedom of erotic speech. In 1975 my second film LICKITY-SPLIT opened at the Lincoln Art Theater in NYC and 4 things quickly followed. 1. It got a rave review in SCREW Magazine. 2. It made Variety’s list of the top 50 grossing films in America for that week. 3. The Theater was busted by the New York Police Morals squad. and 4. Two weeks later I was arrested and charged with Wholesale Promotion of Obscenity/Manufacture a class D Felony in the State of New York. So much for my experience with the legality of pornography. After a long, protracted, and expensive legal battle The NY District Attorney allowed us to substitute the Corporation that the film was made under, the personal charges against me were dropped, and the Corporation paid a hefty fine. But the bottom line is that I lost more money than I made from what was a very successful film.
Several years later my office was raided by the F.B.I. but after one meeting with the Assistant US District Attorney no federal charges were ever brought. But during the year of legal wrangling involved, no one in the Adult Film business wanted to hire me because I was “hot”. Shortly thereafter the Society for prevention of cruelty towards children ( in NY state a legal law enforcement agency with badges and guns) arrested me with no warrant for Corruption of a Minor. (Kiddie Porn) Because I always kept strict records of all my talent including a picture ID of each the NY DA Declined to take the case to the Grand Jury for an indictment and all charges were dismissed.
So much for the legalization of porn in the early days.
When told I was an adult film director may people have often said, “Wow, you must be rich.” To which I have always replied, “No but I have a Lawyer with the most beautiful summer home I bought and paid for.”
In this day and age Porn is a Billion Dollar business but it only exists because of the little band of outlaws like me who fought for our rights rather than packing up our tents and running off into the night when we were persecuted for making Adult entertainment a generation before it became acceptable.
