Ron Jeremy, Jenna Jameson - get ready to stand and be counted.
The Department of Justice wants to come up with an official list of every porn star in America - and slap stiff penalties on producers who don't cooperate.
The new rules, proposed under the Adam Walsh Child Safety and Protection Act, would require blue-movie makers to keep photos, stage names, professional names, maiden names, aliases, nicknames and ages on file for the inspection of the department's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section.
"The identity of every performer is critical to determining and ensuring that no performer is a minor," according to the new proposal.
The adult film industry plans to challenge the new rule as a violation of the First Amendment, said Paul Cambria, a lawyer for Hustler and other adult film companies.

While I am not a fan of the Porn industry, I am less of a fan of a Moral Fascist Regime intent on registering anyone who has not committed a crime.

While you are not a fan of the Porn industry, nor of a Moral Fascist Regime, I am not a fan of the New York Post. I put no stock in this story until it appears in a more credible source.

More scare tactics. Porn will only go further underground and find ways of bringing it to the attention of the kids. When I was costuming my actors. my kids (young girls) were accustomed to seeing naked bodies in and out of costumes and they thought nothing of it. Quick changes back stage often called for help with the dressers and my girls were there for that purpose. This is not porn but I would have to be nervous if any Bush-ite discovered what my girls had to do. We often talk about those days and nothing was ever said even in humor about our jobs.

As you know Stereo..I put litttle credence in most media rags, the Post is definitely included however, it sounds like something the Feds would do, doesn't it?

That's the trouble with propaganda, RS. It so often begins with something that sounds plausible. Let's see if we can find another source, eh?

This information is intended in no way to be legal advice, and is meant solely to educate you about 18 USC 2257. The general requirements of the law are as follows:



Creating a record for each performer used in a depiction of sexually explicit conduct in order to verify that they are at least 18 years old. As a member of
The Free Speech Coalition, you will have access to our 18 U.S.C. § 2257 Records Keeping Compliance Form.

Maintaining the records in a particular manner at the producer’s place of business for at least 7 years. Copies must also be maintained by ‘secondary producers’ of the content in question.
Providing a statement describing the location of the records and availing your business to unannounced, warrantless, “administrative” inspections by government officials for at least 20 hours a week so they can go through these records to ensure they comply with the regulations.


There are many problems that business owners face in terms of complying with this law. Privacy concerns abound relating to the public disclosure of the location of adult entertainment producers. The fact that the government can interrupt your business unannounced, to conduct compliance inspections, is also chilling. There is also nothing in the regulations that punish those who use fraudulent documents.

How about this?
H.R. 4472
While I couldn't find the exact list of who should register the length of the act gives our government enough leeway to prosecute or threaten to prosecute people in the porn industry and that it is if not an ultimatum very intimidating.

An important part of the story.

Ironically, the original "Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act" was introduced by Congressman Mark Foley. Remember him? If he had been a Democrat, I guarantee you people would still be writing about him in the MSM. But since he's a Republican, the Librul Media has conveniently forgotten him. Hasn't it?

This link gives some great background on Section 2257, which was passed, we learn from the article, in 1988.

How can anyone consider banning stuff like this when every damn commercial is for male enhancement, you that special part of a man? I don't expect them to show before and after photos but it might be fun. Stop that Sandy! act like a lady! Okay!
