IT'S JUST A BUNCH OF ARROGANT, DRUNK,OVERINDULLGED AND PRIVILEGED COLLEGE AGED b*****S ACTING LIKE HOs WHO THINK THEY ARE GOD'S GIFT TO THE WORLD AND THAT THEY CAN TAKE OFF THEIR SHIRTS OR THEIR CLOTHES AND EVERYONE WANTS TO SEE...

AND THEY ARE USUALLY DRUNK ON THEIR *** WHEN THEY DO IT TOO.

OR THEY HAVE BEEN SMOKING WEED OR TAKING SOME OTHER DRUGS.

OR MAYBE THEY AREN'T ON ANYTHING AND DO NOT REALIZE THAT ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!

HOW WOULD THY FEEL WHEN THEIR FUTURE HUSBAND SEES THEM WHEN HE IS AT SOME FRAT PARTY OR JUST HAPPENS UPON A COPY OF THAT VIDEO. HE WILL PROBABLY THINK THAT SINCE IT IS THAT EAST FOR HER TO PEEL THOSE CLOTHES OFF THAT MAYBE SHE HAS HAD A LOT OF GUYS AND NOT TOO MANY GUYS i KNOW WANT TO MARRY OR GET SERIOUS WITH A GAL WHO HAS DONE EVERY MAN IN PANTS AND MAYBE SOME WOMEN TOO ...

NO YOUNG LADY IN HER RIGHT MIND WOULD BE IN SUCH TRASH.

I DON'T KNOW WHY ANYONE WOULD WANT TO PAY GOOD MONEY FOR THIS WHEN THEY CAN GO TO THEIR FRIENDLY TOPLESS BAR AND SEE THE SAME SORT OF STUFF.

GIRLS GONE WILD HAS TO BE THE MOST STUPID, EXPLOITATIVE,INANE EXCUSE FOR ENTERTAINMENT EVER AND NONE OF THE WOMEN IN MY FAMILY HAVE EVER APPEARED IN IT OR WOULD EVEN CONSIDER APPEARING IN IT.

I received a postcard in the mail.


Problem is I don't know how many videos they sent. There is no way to find on the credit card statements and I should have kept record which I didn't.

All someone had to do was claim identity theft at the time and this company really would have been screwed.

Its amazing what people will do to get the attention.


I also recall seeing on E channel with that dirt ball on the tv wee hours in the morning and showing off and thinking one day you will get your turn you watch.


Why would anyone get underage girls when they know they were breaking the law?

Of course to show off.

Thanks for posting that, Adolph. That was some good reading. These guys, and their companies, are absolute slimeballs. If you watch their videos, which I shamefully admit that I have (for about five minutes, after that the endless solicitation and brief flashes get a little tired) you will note that what they do is put young, usually drunk girls on the spot and use heavy coercion to entice them into what we all know is the conetnt of a GGW video. And by heavy coercion, I mean HEAVY coercion. Mind you many of these girls would have been willing to do it anyways, and many of them don't need much coercion. But the mixture of peer pressure, alchohol, and sometimes outright begging by the producers almost certainly results in a number of girls performing acts that they otherwise would not have consented to, especially not on a video that will be widely distributed.

Beyond that, there is the recurrent billing scam, and the other various means they use to defraud the consumer. Hopefully this is what the racketeering charge is all about. It would be nice to see a criminal charge stick for these kinds of activities, maybe it would put the many other companies that do he same thing on notice that the law is finally coming to the aid of the victims of recurrent billing schemes.

Lets hope this investigation pans out for the prosecutors down there. It will probably be of little help to their defense that they ask the girls their ages before they put them in the final videos. Videotaping a minor in a state of undress or in a sexual act is illegal whether or not you plan on publishing it. Even if they asked the girls their ages before videotaping them they could probably still be found guilty. Most statutes regarding sex and minors are strict liability, meaning that your intent doesn't matter and it is not a defense that you were deceived as to the person's real age. Even if intent does matter, "recklessness" would probably count under these circumstances.

Let's all cross our fingers!
