Free Speech Coalition Meeting in Vegas at the Lingerie Convention - Synopsis

Hello All!

MadHatter and I drove in for this, the FSC had a meeting during the lingerie convention regarding 2257, taxation aimed at adult entertainment businesses, zoning problems, etc.

2257
-----
Clyde DeWitt spoke he is one of the attorneys and the main thing we all need to worry about is the wording they are trying to get into the 2257 law. Currently "lavicious depiction of the pubic area" is exclused from the definition.

They are trying to not only get this added back in, but make this definition
even if the person is clothed it would need 2257!!! This is BULLSHIT.

You show a woman acting sexy in panties you'd need 2257.

They were trying to get the lingerie industry to also "wake up" that all their product pictures they take might need 2257 also, and join in the fight.

They are also trying to add back in the "simulated sexual activity" also. Fortunately for us, this has got the mainstream movie industry up in arms, and is fighting this. Lets all hope they don't get an exception for them, and not for us.

I did talk to Clyde afterwards, and one thing he was pretty confident on was the overturning of the secondary producer requirements of 2257. I was happy to hear that. Lets all hope that comes about.

There were several other issues discussed, figured I'd do seperate posts, so you don't see one huge chunk of text, and not want to read it all, lol. I'll break it up.

Join http://www.freespeechcoalition.com people. I was very impressed with what they are doing to fight this, and they are banding together with other people and groups. They have even have hired a lobbyist to get our voice here in Washington.

I know XXXJay knows a lot about this issue, and many others, I just hope this helps those that aren't as up on the issues.
