Todd Bridges and Corey Feldman, both of whom were molested by men with Hollywood connections, support legislation to require fingerprinting and background checks for those with unsupervised access to child performers.
Three decades ago, they were teen idols. Todd Bridges played Willis on the popular sitcom "Diff'rent Strokes." Corey Feldman starred in "Gremlins,""The Goonies" and "The Lost Boys."
The two men held the same dark secret: Each had been molested in his adolescence by men with Hollywood connections, experiences that would lead to downward spirals and years of drug addiction.
Today, they are making a highly public case for California legislation they hope will protect child actors from sexual predators, a problem they say continues to bedevil the entertainment industry.
"We're not doing enough to protect children, period," Bridges said.
The bill that the two actors support would require talent managers, photographers and others whose jobs involve unsupervised access to child performers to provide fingerprints and submit to criminal background checks. It also would prohibit registered sex offenders from representing artists who are minors.

The urban homosexual culture is very predatory and this could be used to shine a light on grooming which is something that the media tries very hard not to deal with unless it involves heterosexuals. They turn a blind eye otherwise.
I'd push anti-grooming legislation to help raise the profile of these type of issues and ultimately help children.
Hollywood is a breeding ground for these insects. Drain the swamp and it might help the nation.
If only Hollywood talent managers and photographers were allowed to marry.
This bill is Anti-Gay
It will never see the Light of Day
And would this have helped Feldman or Bridges? I doubt it. Most likely the Hollywood homo perverts that assaulted them were very proud of their lifestyle of buggery and kept magazines and posters of young men around their offices on display for everyone to see. Until society decides to address the problem of behavioral sexual disorders, instead of "celebrating it," this problem is only going to get worse.
There are large numbers of homosexuals in the entertainment industry. They like young male bodies. As homosexuals get older, they are less able to get sex from the hardbody 18-30 set. Many then turn to trying to seduce vulnerable teens.
You're certainly doing plenty to protect the predators Todd. Why not name names? Expose them for the slime that they are.
Dana Plato was the daughter (white sister) on Different Strokes. She robbed liquor stores and was in porn before her suicide.
Exactly. Name who did it (allegedly) or stop saying you are doing “all you can” to prevent this from happening again.
Put a horse’s head in their beds.
Name the names.....Yes! But then, the California schools force young children to think homosexuality is normal and that pederasts like Harvey Milk are heroes.
All to destroy the Christian paradigm of Americans and replace it with the pagan ideology which includes man/boy “love”. It is what the homosexual movement is about-—to sexualize and use children. Parents are allowing children to be sexualized (and used) by allowing “sex ed” in schools.
Sex education was devised by Cultural Marxists to destroy the Christian morality of children and normalize the abnormal and glorify it.
Notice: Catholic priests, although the same percentage of school teachers (if not more) or rabbis or especially muslims, are just as likely to sodomize boys like in the Ancient cultures or Eastern cultures before Christianity became the paradigm in Western Civ. The “priests” are vilified by the press constantly where the Sandusky’s and the Hollywood producers are given a pass by the press—and “forgotten”. (The worldview of the Catholic Church is that homosexual practices are always evil and dysfunctional). Sandusky and the MSM thinks homosexuality is “good” and “healthy” and “normal”. They think there should be no age limits and that is what they keep forcing the APA to change despite the scientific evidence which states that homosexual behavior is dysfunctional and an immature, destructive behavior.
There is a push to normalize homosexuality in the culture—and they want the APA to abolish the age of consent. It was noted decades ago. Marxists/progressives/pagans want no parental controls and the use of young kids for sex. Read Brave New World.
Marxism wants to destroy the natural family and the authority of mother and father. Sex is the easiest way to do it and the Cultural Marxists planned this in the 30’s and have used Hollywood and Laws to destroy Christianity—the only religion besides Judaism which rid the world of pederasty and slavery and the idea that “homosexuality is normal”.
There is a cultural war. Homosexual promotion is the main tool which is used to destroy the Christian paradigm—the most perfect set of ethics for a civil society which embraces true freedom. Without the Christian ethics, there can be no free America. Without Christian Ethics being taught to the future generations, we will be like every other culture which slipped into servitude and slavery. Individuality and responsibility and Free Will and dignity and respect for all came from Christian ideals.
Have any of you heard of Sherwood Pictures? They are a small movie production company in Georgia, which is affiliated with a Baptist Church. They have made the movies “Courageous” and “Fireproof”, which both has strong spiritual and family values themes.
If I can dream, I would dream that Sherwood Pictures would grow into a major player in the movie world, and challenge the supremacy of the entrenched Hollywood entertainment culture. Maybe then, the toxic brew in Hollywood would start to evaporate.
“You’re certainly doing plenty to protect the predators Todd. Why not name names? “
Feldman said that he would name names, but it was apparent that he was simply pitching a potential book deal for himself.. looking for his big payday. They should step up to the plate, do the right thing and call out the offenders by name.
I worked at Warner Bros. About 1 of every 3 in Hollywood are homos.
I tried to watch a movie the other morning on TV and next thing I know a 14 year old girl is naked. Good gawd.
I am sure her parents were proud of her while counting the cash
The child actors have to sleep their way up too. Disgusting.
So, the hetero child predators are okay??
