Well porn stars in LA County will have to practice safe sex or they will officially be breaking the law! Hit the jump for more detail!
U.S. District Judge Dean Pregerson ruled Friday that a ” Los Angeles County law requiring adult film performers to wear condoms” is now constitutional.
“The decision is a setback to porn producers who filed a lawsuit to block the implementation of the Safer Sex in the Adult Film Industry Act, or Measure B, which was approved by voters last November. It was sponsored by five individuals affiliated with the nonprofit AIDS Healthcare Foundation”
In the ruling presented Friday, U.S. District Judge Dean Pregerson stated that “supporters presented sufficient evidence of the health risks the measure seeks to reduce”.
Many in the court room began cheering in support of the ruling yet others including those in the porn industry, who tried to remove the group opposing unsafe sex after the ruling, remained with ill-feelings.
Vivid Entertainment and Califa Productions Co Chairman Steven Hirsch stated his disapproval for the ruling by stating:
“We continue to believe this unfunded mandate infringes upon our freedom of speech, and we will continue our fight by filing an immediate appeal to this portion of the court’s ruling,” in a statement Saturday”.
