    Prop 60 in California MUST FAIL! Or Get Ready To Be Sued!

    From DannyZ

    The threat is real.

    - Civilians can sue you even if you show a scene where a condom isn't visible 100% of the time, and collect 25% of any fines imposed, which means we'll have full time internet porn trolls who sit around all day abusing the court systems and causing lawsuits for hundreds if not thousands of websites.

    - Anyone who has ever produced porn in California or has content that was filmed in California can be open for litigation.

    - If a tube site pirates your content, and it's viewable in California - then you are a target.

    - If you make money in any way from that scene in any way (affiliate, traffic broker, biller, model, editor) - then you can also be hit.

    What can we do???

    First, donate to the FSC No on Prop 60 campaign!! Every penny makes a difference:

    But even if you don't have money to donate, you can help!!

    The next 60 days are crucial. If you own a blog, social media accounts or have email lists with Californians, please do everything you can to hit these people and educate them why they need to vote down this terrible legislation!

    I've created a template you can use and modify to fit your demographic. Please email it, blog it, post it or do whatever you can! We really need to join together as an industry to stop this
    -------


    Hey there,
    Please encourage all of your friends and family members to VOTE NO ON PROP 60. The livelihood of our industry is now in the hands of California voters, and hundreds if not thousands of Californians will lose their jobs if we don't succeed in voting this amendment down! Please join the Democratic, Republican, Green and Libertarian parties in their unanimous opposition to this disastrous bill. If you want more information, you can read the details about it below.

    WHY YOU NEED TO VOTE NO ON PROP 60:
    This is what happens when one special interest group has access to millions of dollars to fund a political campaign. This 13-page measure is so poorly drafted it is the only initiative this year OPPOSED by the CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATIC PARTY and the CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN PARTY. Even the California Libertarian Party opposes Prop 60.

    The proponent wants you to believe it is about worker safety. However, Prop 60 is OPPOSED by the ONLY independent all adult film performer organization in the state, with hundreds of dues paying members. In a letter to the California Secretary of State, the President of the Adult Film Advocacy Committee Chanel Preston stated the initiative is dangerous for the health and safety of performers.

    Prop 60 is also OPPOSED by many civil rights and public health organizations, including Equality California, the Transgender Law Center, AIDS Project Los Angeles, the Los Angeles LGBT Center and the San Francisco AIDS Foundation.

    Prop 60 is opposed by business leaders such as the Valley Industry & Commerce Association (VICA).

    The proponent wants you to believe this is about worker safety. But this disguises the real impact of the measure: the creation of an unprecedented LAWSUIT BONANZA that will cost taxpayers "tens of millions of dollars" and threatens the safety of performers.

    The initiative creates a new private right of action authorizing the Proponent AND all 38 MILLION RESIDENTS OF CALIFORNIA to file lawsuits directly against adult film performers, on-set crew, and even cable and satellite television companies who distribute the films. Even injured performers can be sued directly- by anyone. No other worker in California can be sued this way. VOTE NO ON PROP 60

    HERE ARE THE FACTS:
    According to California's nonpartisan fiscal advisor Prop 60 could cost taxpayers "TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS" each year; money that could be spent on education, health care, libraries, police and fire services.

    The ultimate trial lawyer ballot measure, Prop 60 gives EVERY Californian the right to sue adult film performers, including LGBT performers, on-set workers, and even cable and satellite television companies. The initiative's presumption of liability could apply to every adult film on cable television today.

    Prop 60 could force adult film performers to publicly disclose private information, including their legal names and HOME ADDRESSES.
    State employees will have to "review" adult films.

    The named proponent is authorized to be "sworn in" as a state employee and he cannot be fired; only the Legislature can VOTE him out of the job.

    Married couples who film in their own homes can be sued.

    Prop 60 will cost taxpayers tens of millions of dollars, violate worker privacy, and even make the Proponent a state employee — paid for by taxpayers like you.

    That's why you should join performers, business leaders, the CALIFORNIA DEMOCRATIC PARTY and CALIFORNIA REPUBLICAN PARTY and VOTE NO ON PROP 60.

    I'm sure our International Friends are still confused by "Popular Vote" vs "Electoral College" with the Presidential election!

    Proposition 60 is determined by Popular Vote.

    Our UK Friends woke up the other day to learn that Brexit now must go thru Parliament! Maybe kind of the same thing to slow it down.

    The only thing more of an obstacle than that, was a week or two earlier, the EU announced that Brexit negotiations would be in French, not English!!

    The negotiations are over what trade deals and restrictions on freedom of movement there will be. The other EU countries have everything to lose by not co-operating as they buy more from the UK than we do from them. There is no question of the UK having to ask to leave. We just invoke Article 50 and that's it.

    The EU politicians are arrogant. Which is one reason why so many Brits voted to leave. You might have seen that over the weekend the President of the EU Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, said he will have to teach Donald Trump “what Europe is and how it works”.

    “I think that we will waste two years while Donald J. Trump tours a world that he doesn’t know.”

    The leaders of both main political parties in the UK accept we are leaving. Any MPs who stand in the way of it will quite possibly be punished at the ballot box and lose their seats. I think only a small number will.

    It's the EU politicians who are "waking up" due to Brexit, Trump and there are forthcoming elections in France, Holland and the Netherlands which are all expected to show an anti-EU swing.
