Julia Ann Laying the Truth Down On Shelley Lubben
Posted: June 4th, 2012, 3:28 am
Times like these are when I am most proud to be a member of this fine army.
This was Julia Ann's letter that she posted to her Facebook page on why she decided not to take part in a promotional fundraiser called "Porn Stars for Puppies" which was sponsored by the creators of the biography documentary "After Porn Ends", featuring the testimonies of performers after they had left the industry. Julia had been one of the featured performers in that documentary, but also none other than Shelley Lubben, now infamous antiporn activist and fundamentalist Christian "minister" whom had recently compared some former porn performers whom had joined her minstry but later left to tell tales of abuse, neglect, and financial indiscretions as "animals" biting the hands that fed them.
Lubben had attended the fundraiser as a means of selling her ministry, but was confronted with a united protest by the other performers, who wore T-shirts brandishing the slogan "SHELLEY LUBBEN TREATS PORN STARS LIKE ANIMALS". She ultimately meekly left after the obligatory group photos; but not before her husband Garrett got into a public shouting match with Michael Whiteacre, one of the primary and most prolific critics of Shelley and the producer of his own documentary expose, The Devil and Shelley Lubben.

Anyways, here is the entirity of Julia Ann's comments.
Truer words were never said better. Thank you, Julia.

Anyways, here is the entirity of Julia Ann's comments.
I woke up conflicted today knowing there was a pet adoption event that I wanted to be a part of but not wanting to feel anxiety over the particulars surrounding the event (the ‘Anti-Pornography Infant’ Shelley Lubben saga continues). When I was informed that this person was going to use an event that is to be about the saving of little lives to promote her negative, biased, fear-driven opinion (note I said opinion and not fact) I was insulted and, needless to say, disgusted.
For those that follow the animal holocaust that is happening on a daily basis in US animal shelters (gas chambers and all) with a staggering 5 to 6 million animals being murdered every year, that’s around 700 an hour. In the time it takes you to eat lunch 700 dogs and cats are killed because no one wanted them. 1 out of every 10 dogs and 1 out of 12 cats will find a permanent home. 10,000 people are born every day and 70,000 animals are born every day so do the math. There just aren’t enough good, loving homes.
Now that I’ve explained this heartbreaking truth I’m sure you can understand why some anti-pornography crusader using this event (where a select few critters may actually find love for the rest of their lives) to promote her baseless agenda makes me incensed. For her to show up and act like porn actresses are treated like animals in the shelter (the adult industry isn’t gassing any of us) is preposterous. These two events should never be equated to each other.
Shelley, how dare you make light of animal overpopulation and suffering? My home is constantly filled with these injured, sickly and betrayed creatures while we search for their forever homes, and the adult Industry is what pays for their medical care. Shame on you!
On a slightly different note, If it weren’t for the constant fight that the Porn Industry is engaged in, you (Shelley) might have lost the free speech rights that afford you the platform to spew your venom. What or who would you even be if you didn’t have the industry to hate so much, and who would even hear you? We are your entire identity.
Honestly, you should just say thank you to the Porn Industry and be about your way.
Truer words were never said better. Thank you, Julia.

for that
