SHANESWORLD

Mike is one of the very few people I look up to and aspire to be like. he is very good at what he does and is not some "affiliate rep". The guy makes moves, makes cash, and makes Hirsch and himself lots of money. I know this for a fact. He isn't arrogant, and I believe was only making a point that Donny's presentation was very unimpressive. If I am wrong please correct me. Making 500k and profiting 500k is two separate things. I don't believe this is the issue here anyhow.

I personally would not call Donny one of the most successful and well known pornographers in this industry, like the show did, but we all know how things are blown up for media, so no harm - no foul on that.

Now with that said.

I watched the entire thing online and I personally saw many things that were not in line with what i know to be the truth. I found myself calling bullshit more than a few times when Donny spoke in the debate. I am not talking about personal finances. That I am not egotistical enough to pursue nor care enough about. I don't even feel it's relevant to the discussion. Money is money. This is about the dangers of porn on society it seemed to me.

BD and some others here were and are friends/acquaintances with Donny and I would expect nothing less than to have strong feelings about this issue. However, he is now the enemy in my book. Although I will not attack him directly, he is calling unsolicited attention to the industry for his own gain, and that I do not support or appreciate.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and with heated debate sometimes comes personal attack. Being able to separate the two can lend to great discussion on the issues.

That is my general point.
