Money and power corrupts

http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/467880755

Money and power have corrupted people, I agree. Such as the people invloved in movies like Hounddog. I can not sit idlely by while children are hurt and exploited. I will never ask for anyone to "shove me in the shallow water before I get too deep". I am jumping in the deep end with both feet, fighting to protect children. Money has caused a director/writer, actors and parents to violate some taboos, as well as some laws protecting children.

I would like to ask you to lend your voice for the protection of children in film. The movie Hounddog,
which was filmed in North Carolina, includes many scenes that involve the sexual explotation of Dakota Fanning,
Isabelle Furhman and Cody Hanford and there is a petition circulating asking the NC Attorney General to investigate.

This is a national film industry problem that everyone who cares about children should speak out against. Those
of us who are survivors of sexual abuse, should work to protect others from going through what we were forced to
endure.

Thanks for your time and consideration.

For all who are concerned about HOUNDDOG, visit this URL and read the petition. For all who are stating that no crime
has been commited, visit this URL and read the NC and US laws included in this petition.

I and my children have really enjoyed some of the movies that Dakota Fanning has been in and were looking forward to
more, like Charlotte's Web and others, but I cannot continue to allow my children to be Dakota fans if this movie is released,
but I also can't tell them why.

Dakota wasn't the only one vicitmized in the making of this movie. There were 3 children invloved in this production.
Isabelle Furhman, Cody Hanford and Dakota Fanning. All of them were exploited. All of them had scenes with nudity,
weather they had on body suits or not, the way they were touching each other is sexual behavior. In the scene most talked
about, the rape scene, if it's true that the film only shows Dakota from the shoulders up, it still invloved her being humped
and pawed by the 18 year old actor who portrayed Wooden's boy. Even if they don't show that part or that much detail, just
the fact that it was done is a violation of law.

Thank you for your time and consideration and thank you in advance for helping spread the word to get the laws applied to everyone.
