PICS
LEAST FAVORITE LAW EVER
i just noticed that like half the pics in my "favorite sg pics" are deleted because of that STUPID new porn law. all the really cool ones with blood are gone. wtf does that have to do with child porn?
here is s.g.'s position on the issue:
Hello Missy here,
You can see Olivia's post below...
Our statement on this controversy is this...
While we do not believe any of our images are illegal, SG has removed a number of images in order to ensure that we are not targeted by the U.S. Government's new war on porn.
We have received no formal government notice to remove these images, however in the course of our involvement, as witnesses, in a federal criminal prosecution that does not target SG, we have been made aware of the risks posting such content poses the owners of the company. Given the U.S. Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales' new war on porn task force and it's intent to bring obscenity charges against their loosely defined "Deviant" imagery, we have removed any images with fake blood and any images we felt could be wrongfully construed as sadist or masochist.
Given the natural disasters in Louisiana and Texas, the U.S. Government's numerous foreign war's and the growing U.S. deficit, we feel there are far better uses of government resources then pursuing the legality of imagery created by consenting adults, but as is usually the case, our opinions are not shared by the current U.S. Administration. Also, we really miss Bill Clinton.
If you feel strongly about this issue, feel free to join SG in donating to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Free Speech Coalition.
Yours Truly,
Missy Suicide

Hello,
I just wanted to let you know that, thanks to the "War on Porn," SG will be taking down a bunch of photosets and individual photos today.
Even the FBI agents paid to surf for porn find this ridiculous, but apparently sending people to jail for pictures of two consenting adults enjoying a little rope bondage is more fucking important than.... I dunno, pick any one of the million of better causes out there that the government could be focusing on.
So, I apologise heartily for having to do this, both to the SuicideGirls whose art is being fucked over and the members who are being treated like babies, but we really don't want to get shut down and sent to jail. As soon as legally possible, the photosets and pictures about to be taken down will come back. Until then, bid a fond farewell to your favourite blood-bathing beauties, rope-bound babes, and handcuffed honeys. Apparently they've no place in today's society.
If you want to help stop this stupidity, feel free join SG in donating to the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) and the Free Speech Coalition. If you live in the US, you can also send a letter to your representative in Congress.

rad show last night. yay! chock full of randomness and weirdity.
zombie porno premiere ("re-penetrator" lol), art of bleeding performances, new collapse. at my new fave show spot il corral. like the smell, but without the scary junkies and hookers. AND the show ended exactly early enough for me to go home & get decent sleep before getting up @ 6am.
YESSSSSS
going to shows is my favorite thing to do. i rarely give up seeing a show because i have to get up early.
so i get home from the show to find that my new pain teens poster arrived yesterday also, and it's in great condition. i keep having to unroll it and stare at it. i also just found a very rare pain teens 7" on ebay, and won it for $4. i have everything they've ever put out, so now i'm concentrating on getting the different color vinyl editions, and posters. sad i know. i won two awesome 7"s recently for a buck each, vols. 1 & 2 of the trance syndicate "love & napalm" series (for which the poster is for), but they never arrived. i was very pissed. the dude didn't even care either. i think he was mad that no one bid on them, so he just kept my $5 check. fucker!!
