Fourth Porn Actor this Year - Tests HIV+
Last Friday, the adult film industry trade association Free Speech Coalition called for a moratorium on filming after an unidentified performer was announced as testing HIV-positive.

2. I'm not sure I can come down on either side of the issue...

All I know is we all should practice safe sex when possible and people should certainly be educated about the consequences of not doing so.

I see to many people making poor choices when it comes to this.

78. make a federal law stating the the industry has to use condoms.

Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call

 

The last line is part of the DUmpmonkiez sigline... but I thought it was pretty funny in this setting...

15. The headlines about the "porn stars" with HIV are sensational

If you do a Google search about the story, look how many Conservative media outlets cover the story.

This is "all about" banning porn. The condom law in California is being driven by Conservatives in Orange County.
They want to drive the porn industry out of LA.

DTOM is making an early run for DOTY 2014!

71. child birth is neither a disease nor an injury

and condoms are birth control. I stand for workers rights. I'm not going to suddenly decide those workers rights aren't important because some people here like to watch porn actors who don't use condoms. If there isn't a regulation, workers who want to use condoms won't be hired. That's the same with any workplace safety issue. They are mandates on the employer so that workers aren't killed or injured. Unfettered capitalism that results in using workers as disposable without regard to their safety is something I will never support. That applies to whatever industry they work in.

Most Democrats support safe workplaces. Hillary Clinton certainly does.

What the ****? Hillery likes bareback porn?

I always thought DUmpers believed pregnancy was a venereal disease.

Yeah one problem bainsbane...we don't live in some back alley of Indonesia...american porn workers are very well paid and most have decided to take that risk for the almighty dollar. In one breath you speak of unfettered capitalism while ignoring the vapid consumers that would expose themselves to injury and disease in order to practice their consumerism. You sure are dense for a PHD.

Maybe she's referring to Southern American slavery porn.

You and I both know the only slavery that matters was what took in place 150 years ago in this country..present slavery be damned...and other countries...pfft...we all know women are the most oppressed here...south american sex slaves are merely liberated and women getting their private parts mutilated in the Middle East are only practicing their very generous religious freedoms afforded to them--We all know that only married heterosexual sex in the US is rape and a cooperative, Christ centered marriage that a man and woman have willingly chosen to engage in is the ultimate oppression......idiot liberal mode off

 Where is OCHA in this problem.???

  Should they not be first on the scene to a work place accident ??

These workers in a legal industry should have the same protection everyone has in any work place.  The company is responsible to insure the workers can work in a safe environment.

Their responsibility to see that a worker coming in to work will not contact Herpes or a life threatening disease.   The workers have to depend on their boss to protect them from damage and harm.

This is no different then working in food service with some kind of disease that can infect others.

Sorry that those infected can no longer get work in many jobs in life, No one to blame but themselves people do not pick up Aids walking down the street.  Hard to get Herpes from sitting on a toilet at Wal-Mart.    

These Porno producers have to check and double check the actresses and actors, that is their job, to produce Porn that in no way harms the actors.

I think Alex has fantasies of being a porn slut and starring in anal gangbang and bukkake scenes with black studs.

Judging by the the lengths they'll go to to eradicate it with extreme prejudice, it's difficult to draw any other conclusion.

I've found, repeatedly, that as knowledge trickles into a PhD candidate's head, common sense floods out.

I woulden't hold out hope.


Vesta, getting OSHA involved in the porn industry, will kill it, just like a boner and CalPig.

Porn is as likely to die out as alcohol.
