What's the problem. Are the opinions I am expressing totally weird?

Not weird, but they seem a bit skewed. I've never heard anyone say 'Its wrong but OK 'cause he/she works in porn'.
There are racists, bigots, pricks in all industries. These issues have little to do with a persons 'morality'. Morality is a personal decision. You make your own morality. What society deems moral can range greatly as well and should not be used as a measurement of personal morality.
ONE of the reasons we seem to get more 'amoral' (as you call it) people in this business (and on GFY) is because there is no system of checks and balances here. In any other public industry where you work in an office (for example) you can sue someone for racism/sexism/whatever because it affects your personal rights to a happy and healthy workplace. Most of us work in our homes on our own and do not have to deal with these sort of people in our daily lives. If we DO deal with the bigots/racists it is because we choose to. You can put anyone on your IGNORE list and not click on any threads that are obviously (and most are obvious) going to inspire people to argument and possibly insults.
Police yourself. If you object to someone's 'morals' then don't associate with them. It isn't right to be a racist/bigot/whatever but it isn't to do with morality.
I'll probably be on your ignore list now.
