LA County Passes Condom Law - yawn
Voters in Los Angeles County, which encompasses the city of Los Angeles, the surrounding suburbs, a few mountain ranges and a vast expanse of upper elevation desert scrub, passed a law that will require the porn industry to use condoms in all future productions. I had reported that this unenforceable law would effect the City of Los Angeles only, suggesting the industry could merely cross the street and relocate to neighboring Burbank. But no, I was wrong: it's the whole county; eventhough there's a quirk in the law that exempts a city or district with its own health department. And there are a few, namely Pasadena, that staid, starchy, stockbroker suburb commonly referred to as Pasadowner and the port city of Long Beach (its raunchy Navy town days are now just a memory), and the industrial warehouse town of Vernon, known as one of the most corrupt cities on the Pacific Slope. But do you know what? Who gives a rat's ass? Pornistas can take their business to escort and margarita-ridden Palm Springs, just 100 miles east in bareback-friendly Riverside County. The boys of the Hot Desert Knights family once ruled that town...Bill and John and Ray, not to mention Cole Tucker, Lance Hancock, Steve Hurley, and many others were all over the place. You couldn't swing a purse without hitting a pornstar. Now you might see Lance on the patio at Wang's-in-the-Desert during the infamous Friday happy hour, but that's about it. LA porn producers should pack up the trailer, get on Interstate 10 and just head out east.
