Peter can always tell the Judge that the reason he couldn't answer the door more promptly was that he was tied up... :winkwink:

There is a much bigger issue that Kink could soon be facing as a result of the mainstream publicity it is receiving as result of this new James Franco film.

From www.counterpunch.org-

Kink.com is in violation of the United Nations Convention Against Torture. The International Council for Rehabilitation for Torture Victims states:

?Some of the most common methods of physical torture include beating, electric shocks, stretching, submersion, suffocation, burns, rape and sexual assault.? These are the very acts showcased on the Kink.com website. They are not mere simulations: the women are clearly bound and in contorted positions, and many are grimacing. This is not a fun, fantasy place run by a charming band of outsiders, but a group of savvy businessmen who missed their calling at Abu Ghraib.

The usual defense of Kink.com is that the women signed a contract and hence agreed to the acts. But as attorney Wendy Murphy of the New England School of Law argues, ?torture doctrine is not hampered by concerns about consent because, as a matter of law and policy, one cannot consent to torture.?

Those things are not torture to everyone. Maybe for you. Maybe for me. But not to everyone. Personally know people who get off on being the source of degradation, loving all the things listed above.


Somewhere along the way came these rallying cries that 31 Flavors is wrong, and vanilla is best for everyone. Vanilla should NOT be the only flavor.

Fuck that.

If you don't agree with things that consensual adults do together then fuck you too. Don't like it, don't watch it :2 cents:

Well, karma is a bitch, what comes around goes around, that's for sure. Kink shoots some of the best bondage on the net, but as far as their affiliate program is concerned, they act like pricks and hassle affiliates. Fuck Kink. Plenty of affiliates know exactly what I'm talking about.

Actual 911 call:

"Hi I saw a video of someone online shooting guns in an armory."
"Well, isn't that what they're built for?"
"Yes, but this one shoots porn there."
"With guns?"
"No with cameras."
"Are they shooting people?"
"Not with the guns."
"And they're in a place made to store and test weaponry?"
"Yes."
"I see."

But hey, I'm a lover, not a sick......well, "sick" is subjective hehe.

Anyway, kink.com does what it does well, and on a highly professional level, so hopefully all involved will be ok. Just because I don't like something doesn't mean they don't have a right to do it. But I digress...

Word. If anything, they've normalized a high standard of discussion before and after scenes to ensure safety and respect.

I've been there, it's a defensive fortification whose walls are meant to stop bullets from going through them -- while I understand that some ass hat will find sunshine offensive and am not surprised that complaints are made, it's senselss that the cops -- supposed firearms experts -- would take this seriously. Someone needs a slap...

CourtneyR 02-12-2013 09:54 AM
What are they flipping out about there really is a shooting range in the basement. OK so its mainly used as a set but it was a shooting range years ago.

Knowing California there are probably local ordinances making the discharging of a firearm within city/county limits a crime. Without a legal variance to that ordinance shooting on your own property is then a crime.

Somebody somewhere is having 'normal' sex with women against their will too. Consenting adults can go interesting places with their imaginations. It is understandable that most people won't 'get' it but in those situations some of the most intense love is shared between the participants. Trust and love are so closely linked.

maybe this is more PC.

I guess, that like most cities...the cops in San Francisco are too busy arresting people over bullshit like doing some blow rather than worry about real criminals.

It is not a leaked video, as far as i remember, they posted a video tour of his armory, where they showed the shooting range and shot few rounds. It was either an interview of some sort, or some newspaper doing a piece on the armory. But it was def mainstream and Peter did the tour.

The Porn Nerd 02-12-2013 12:18 PM
Yeah yeah some people like it hot, some people like it cold, some people like it rough some people like it tender.....

What's amazing to me and proof of how deviant most people's kinks are is that they feel the need to "defend" their bizarre fuck play. "What's wrong with tying a girll up and using an electric shocker on her pussy then jamming my cock down her mouth so she can't breathe? Nothing, it's KINKY BABY!!"

Whatever, people have a right to do what they want as long as its consensual. But I also have a right to call it sick shit I do not like.

Enjoy!

C'mon Robbie, you know how it works. Someone with deep pockets is offended by what Kink is doing. They're somehow made aware of this alleged video and it gave them a reason to reach out to a city employee that owes them a favor or three.

Agreed 100%.

Looks like San Francisco is looking to devolve socially down to the level of the rest of the country. They just banned public nudity a couple of months back and now they are probably going to go after porn too.

You can't do that anymore?

This story finally made the local news:

Quote:
The head of San Francisco's Kink.com porn studio has been charged with possessing cocaine, authorities said Tuesday.

Officers went to the fetish-porn studio in the Mission District Armory on Feb. 1 after someone reported seeing an online video of people shooting guns inside the hulking building at 14th and Mission streets, said Officer Albie Esparza, a police spokesman.

"If you're not a shooting range, you can't be shooting a gun inside a building," Esparza said.

Officers found evidence that guns had been fired inside the armory, but did not make any gun-related arrests, Esparza said. However, they did pat down company CEO Peter Acworth, 42, of San Francisco when he did not promptly answer the door, and found he had a few grams of cocaine in his pocket, authorities said.

Acworth was arrested on suspicion of possessing cocaine for personal use and booked into County Jail. He was later released on $15,000 bail, said Alex Bastian, a spokesman for the district attorney's office.

Acworth has pleaded not guilty to cocaine possession, a felony, and will return to court Feb. 27.

Kink.com makes a variety of fetish pornography such as rope bondage, gay wrestling and "slave training." Acworth's attorney, Michael Stapanian, said the CEO has run the studio for 15 years without incident.

"This charge amounts to a $60 mistake," Stapanian said in a statement. "It will be handled as quickly and expeditiously as possible."

Acworth issued a statement saying that "while this current attention is regrettable," the studio "will continue our endeavors to be positive contributors to the neighborhood and city of San Francisco."

Peter Acworth, owner and CEO of Kink.com, stands for a portrait on a movie set in their office building, on Monday Feb. 23, 2009 in San Francisco, Calif. Acworth says his business is having trouble competing with new websites that are giving content away for free.
May not even be worth fighting, although it sucks that they can simply walk-in and search a person for not answering the door fast enough, so if I had his dough I would consider fighting it on principle (charges get dropped all the time).

BTW, I've been to Kink several times, and it takes a long-ass time to walk from one portion of Kink to the other.

I did a tour of the Armory when we were in SF. That place is huge, I was seriously jealous of the setup they have there. I'm also disappointed in this, they seemed to have a workplace that really respected the models and tried to do things ethically... but shooting guns there? Not good.
