Ah, yes, the wholesome family values of Speaker Pelosi's home district on full display.
You'd think that the law would prevent any building on the National Register from being used for immoral purposes. But that would require judging what's moral and immoral.

If anything can be said to be negative about our country it is the actions and business of this industry which is one of the single most destructive forces in society. Those of you who stand to PROMOTE it promote everything that is wrong. Make no attempt with me to do so. It hurts families, and especially women and makes pigs of men who think its good.
No, sex is not "DIRTY" or "SINFUL" or any such thing...but these heinous bastards make it just that. Consenting or not it brings out the worst in us and damages what is one of the more beautiful things inhuman relationships.

A brick building? The next moderate-to-severe earthquake will flatten it, unless it's been extensively updated.

The Moorish-style brick building in San Francisco's Mission District was recently purchased for $14.5 million by Kink, a Web-based pornography distributor that outgrew its South of Market dungeon. The fact that "Kink" has $14.5 million to spend on a brick building is, I believe, the most disturbing part of this article.
Damn. I'm really in the wrong line of work.

>>>the armory is listed on the National Register of Historic Places
Doesn't that mean it was in a Trust? I thought if property or easements where submitted to a trust, it meant is wasn't transferable? It was preserved?
::not sure how that works::

Wonder how much money Kink donates to Democrats.

I doubt it'll fall down, although you can always hope
that the wrath of God falls upon those pervy pornstars.
It's a brick building that was built 6 years after the
1906 earthquake, and that has already survived the severe
1989 Loma Prieta earthquake (6.9 on the moment magnitude
scale, 7.1 surface-wave magnitude). It's literally built
like a shick brithouse.

Um, shouldn't that read 'armoury'?

This company, "Kink", is the parent company of the sites that I was telling you about [a while back].
I won't post links to them for fear of being banned from FR.
Although I have to admit, I'm surprised that they can afford to drop $14+ mil on new digs.
That's some pretty serious cash [given that you can find almost all of their stuff for free at one rogue site or another].

Listing something on the the National Register of Historic Places does not put it in a trust. The National Register is grossly misunderstood since it does not prevent a private property owner from doing anything they want with their property.
If you own a National Register property, you can bulldoze it if you want to, the only thing that can be done to you as punishment (at the Federal level) is to remove your property from listing on the Register.
The National Register of Historic Places protects significant properties from GOVERNMENTAL actions. Local, State and Federal governments or private parties using Federal Funds are the ones who are restricted by a National Register listing and in even in those cases, there are many loopholes.

Why is porn-making not considered prostitution, legally-speaking? Money is exchanged for sex. What legal maneuvers and political donations do the pornmongers make?

"What legal maneuvers and political donations do the pornmongers make?" They cloak it in the 1st Amendment...you know, the same one that separates church and state....< /sarcasm>
