Jeb Bush's Porn Problem

Jeb Bush is coming under scrutinyfire again from social conservatives for his involvement of  investing taxpayer money in a company with ties to pornography while Governor of Florida.

The former Florida governor invested $1.3 million from the
state’s pension fund into Movie Gallery, a film rental company that offers X-rated films in addition to comedies and action movies, according to a report in the International Business Times

The report examined thousands of emails from during his tenure that show a strained relationship between Bush and the “religious right."
One voter wrote Bush was supporting a company that was “enslaving men and women to its addiction."

American Family Association founder Donald Wildmon, in particular, took offense to Bush’s ties to pornography. He wrote a mass email rallying social conservatives against Bush.

“Movie Gallery shades hundreds of its stores with ‘back rooms,’ filled with thousands of videos and magazines exhibiting morbid depictions of sex,” Wildmon reportedly said in the email. “By investing in Movie Gallery stock, the state of Florida is giving its stamp of approval on hard-core porn. Tell the Florida Board of Administration to get out of the porn business by divesting itself of Movie Gallery stock.”

Initially, Bush did not back down amid pressure, allegedly maintaining that he had to make the most profitable investment choice for taxpayers.

But in the state sold the shares in 2006 after Movie Gallery’s stock performance began to slip.


The revelations came from 280,000 emails released from Bush's time as governor and have now come back to the forefront.

AFTER SCHOOL: New App that Allows Children To Download Porn And Other Unsavory Things

Clarkston Michigan: Clarkston
schools administrators have sent an email blast to students’ parents warning them about a new social media application called "After School" that allows kids to see pornographic videos and bully their peers anonymously with no repercussions.

According to Clarkston School District's e-mail, the app — found on afterschoolapp.com and only available on iPhones, iPods and iPads , has gained in popularity in the Clarkston Michigan school district and elsewhere.  The same warning has also been sent out to the Howell Michigan school district as well. 



To check if a student has downloaded the application, look for an icon of a tiger wearing yellow striped sunglasses.  

 It’s free to download and is also accessible through Facebook. It claims to be a private, anonymous online message board for your school but is actually in no way affiliated, endorsed or organized by districts. The content includes sexually explicit videos and photos as well as inappropriate comments and messages about fellow students and others. Officials say since all of the posts are anonymous, there is little a district can do if a student is being bullied or harassed and there’s no way to identify the person posting the comments.

To learn more about how to discuss social media with students, visit the American Academy of Pediatrics at www.aap.org and search for “Social Media.”

The After School app is developed by Ambient and their contact information is: support@afterschoolapp.com.
