I’ve shot, and sold successfully, more condom footage than any director in the history of this medium, starting with Nina’s first Guide shoot in 1992.

I’m all for condoms and always have been. They’re a minor challenge to a good cameraman and a good editor."

I am at a loss. Are you in support of measure B? All I have seen is post after post that try to undermine all efforts to prevent it from passing. We could argue all day about how it will be enforced, about how shooting "around" condoms is a money maker or how this measure will never grow in scope or territory.

But in general terms i can not see how this measure is good for anybody who makes their living in this industry. Why do we not have 100% support here. Mike why are you fighting our rejection of this law?
