Being a porn star might not meet the approval of everyone you meet but you might think your bank manager would be one person who wouldn't have cause to complain.

Adult film actress Chanel Preston has starred in close to 150 porn flicks and is well compensated for her time, but now it appears she is having trouble keeping a bank account.

Well, if taking out a loan/mortgage, they need to show their source(s) of income.

Let’s hope they aren’t even more specific.

I believe BOA and Chase are also refusing to do business with firearm related businesses.

Maybe the banks want to avoid trouble from female employees having to interact with people in the porn business, and claiming “hostile working environment”.

Maybe if she showed up at the bank wearing some clothes, she’d find better service. Enough is enough already.

She wouldn’t have trouble keeping an account if she were a drug dealer.

Banks love drug dealers.

Prostitution is illegal, unless someone’s filming it!

While I would be happy to see bank managers involved in shunning such disgusting behavior, something about this story does not sit right. I have some questions but no answers.

Could it be that some mohammedans are raising a fuss?
Is this just a way to set a precedent so they can go after conservatives based on some sort of claim of moral objection?
Are the claims of the “victims” bogus and just a premise for inviting more Obamugabe regs?

Maybe the banks don't want the competition.

Maybe the tellers don't like handling all those sticky $1 bills.

Seriously, the acting is atrocious, production is amateurish and it's always the same story line, but OTOH the porn industry never asked me for a bailout...

Does this include high profile hotel chains that offer pay-per-porn channels for lonely travellers to jerk off to?

Prostitution is illegal, unless someone’s filming it!

When homosexual acts were legally considered "unnatural" and illegal, same sex porn was not outright illegal or "obscene".

Yet when the age of consent is under 18 (16, 17) or bestiality is legal (and it is/was legal in a number of states) you could engage in the acts, you just couldn't film/photograph them.

None of the distinctions make sense.
