Progress on porn regulation

State of California officials are following up on their pledge to protect sex workers in the same way they protect hospital and lab workers. Two adult video companies have been fined:

State officials have taken unprecedented regulatory action against the porn industry, fining two adult film companies more than $30,000 each for allegedly allowing actors to perform unprotected sex.
The citations against Evasive Angles and TTB Productions, which share the same address in the San Fernando Valley, come after an HIV outbreak earlier this year involving four actors and forcing a temporary shutdown of adult film production in Southern California.

The state Division of Occupational Health and Safety said after the outbreak that it would begin investigating the industry to determine whether it complied with state health and worker safety laws.

The companies received citations for violating the state's blood borne pathogen standard, a regulation that requires employers to protect workers exposed to blood or bodily fluids on the job.

I have a slight quibble with the wording of the phrase "for allegedly allowing actors to perform unprotected sex" in the lead paragraph.

By way of comparison, suppose that today I went outside and found a homeless man, brought him up to my apartment, put a stack of hundred dollar bills in front of him, then handed him a .38 caliber revolver with one live round in it. I said to him, "Put the gun to your head and pull the trigger once, and you can have the money."

Would you describe this as, "Brian Flemming allowed a man to play Russian roulette in his apartment"?

COMMENTS

"Brian Flemming allowed a man to play Russian roulette in his apartment."

Allowed? How about facilitated? Or Enabled? Encouraged? Prodded? Perhaps even coerced. Nah. It would be more like an offer that couldn't be refused.

And, honey, if you really do have a stack of hundred dollar bills..*

* Brian is buying the next round!

A human being is the only creature with the ability to see the world as he wants it to be rather than as it actually is. It is this trait that makes it so difficult for him to recognize reality when he is confronted by it.This difficulty is compounded by the fact that his mind didn't come with an instruction manual.
