| Message | Mr. Speaker, We cannot simply treat pornography "as any other business." We need extra regulations. They already pay taxes under current regulations. We need to regulate this industry because it involves many persons having sex with many other persons. That means that actors need to be registered so that their ages are verified, and that their consent is proven. Actors also need to be regularly checked for STDs and other health-related issues. For these reasons, we need to keep the industry more regulated than others. -- Trevor Fertig, Chairman of the GNRG, President of GDR Lodamun |
