I'm not sure why AVN banned him instead of putting out a statement like " In light of the current social atmosphere Ron Jeremy has informed us that he will be asking before touching at this years AVN awards " could have been a cool compromise instead of a bitch slap. Maybe they had threats of performers boycotting or protests, I doubt it but I have no idea.

This is not about being touchy feely at a show. If we were speaking JUST about that, just because he is a porn star, that still doesn't give anyone the right to grab (sexually assault) anyone without consent. However, this was WAAAAAY more then that.
First of all you have solid accusations by at least 2 woman that he flat out raped them. I have read about other accusations.
I probably wouldn't have even commented on this guy had I not witnessed for myself some other very seriously disturbing shit that went down at an event.
The fact that people call him a legend, and the status he holds in the industry has allowed him to get away with this shit for decades.
