We just got this here this week, and thought everyone would like to see it:

Friday, Feb. 6th, 2009 LA MDC

Greetings friends and fans,

I’m sorry that I haven’t contacted everyone before this late date, but recent extraordinary events have overwhelmed me, and rendered me incapable of anything but defensive actions. This is actually the very first opportunity that I have had to sit down and collect my thoughts in sufficient quantity and clarity to justify writing to you at all. I hope you are all in the best of health, and free to move about your world without having to ask permission to do so.

I want to assure you that physically I feel great, as I’ve made some very positive changes in my life, ridding myself of the grip that cigarettes and alcohol have had on my health and well-being. I must confess that I had little choice in the matter because I am presently incarcerated in a federal prison, but these are changes that will help me regain my health and renew my spirit and ultimately emerge from this prison a better man.

Some said it was inevitable that I should pass through here someday, because I’ve always had a problem with authorities telling me what I can and cannot do – but it still seems surreal that I’m in here not for what Paul Little did as a person, but for what the fictional character Max Hardcore did in a movie. Movies that no one was forced to watch (well, except inside a federal courthouse), movies that we as adults in this country ostensibly have the freedom to enjoy or ignore.

The authorities have finally jailed me on the incredibly vague and subjective crime of “obscenity”. Of course, the United States government took it upon itself to order and scrutinize these films despite the fact that no one in the community where I was tried had complained about them. It was clear at my trial that none of the jurors from Tampa Bay had ever seen anything like my videos, but those same people have decided what adults all over this country and, by extension, all over the world can watch in the privacy of their homes. And these films were presented to this jury not in their entirety, but in a way crafted by a judge concerned primarily by perceived “demeaning treatment” in the movies, including the use of “harsh and abusive language” as directed toward certain female actresses in a small number of my movies. Seems strange that an administration that condoned real torture would be so shocked and concerned about “demeaning treatment” and “harsh language” between consenting adult actors in a fictional film, but that’s what happened…

Amazingly, the jury went along with the whole government program, as I now know they almost always do, and convicted me on all 10 counts. The judge sentenced me to 46 months and a fine of nearly one hundred thousand dollars. I’m holding out hope that I can get conviction overturned in a higher court, but it’s an uphill battle that few ever win. Until the ridiculous Miller test of obscenity is thrown onto the trash heap of judicial history, I’m afraid just about any controversial artist could be convicted of it. The laws on the books are clearly out of step with what the public has demanded, so I’m sure it is only a matter of time before the government gets out of the business of trying to enforce morality. However, in the meantime, I would encourage all of you to spread the word about this case throughout the adult and mainstream entertainment industries, as well as letting your representatives in government know how outraged you are about this gross infringement on your freedom of speech.

They are flicking the lights in here and that means it’s time to head off to our cells and be counted in for the night. But I’ll write back soon and let you know how things are going, and pass on the benefit of my experience here. Until then, stay positive and live every day as if it were your last.

Sincerely,
Paul F. Little

Do they censor the outgoing mail at these facilities? Any way to know if someone is trying to cover up anything Max may have said?

????

Thanks for the update Paully. Any ideas on what Max would want (or is allowed for that matter) sent in care packages? Other than the obvious shiv that would never make it.

who's down?

Absolutely, he can receive books(certain types) directly from Barnes and Noble or Amazon, newspapers etc. Nothing can be sent directly from any of us, no care packages or things like that. No nudity or obviously shit like Anarchist Cookbook, it's all up to the prison as to what is ok and what isn't. Kind of like that fucked up trial.

Anyways the man is upbeat, focused and in the 15 or so minutes a day I talk to him, he has found a true sence of clarity.

He did want me to make something clear to everybody though, as fucked up as his situation is, he doesn't want anyone feeling sorry for him. Max knew this was dangerous job when he took it.


btw he digs books on history, aviation, war, car racing, and anything having to do with technology.

I think they do spell-checks and watch for grammar only so they can send the men in black to fuck up your second grade teacher if your wrong, just fucking with you lil homie. They read letters if they want, if they don't like them they shit can them. Thats all.

Thanks for the post Paully, and the contact information.

I will send him a couple of books.

If Max stays long he'll have the guards dressing like little girls and the warden drinking piss like it came from his liquor cabinet !

Maybe they'll let him watch Papillion

Nope he'll be directing a prison version with everyone pissing on the guards while they fuck the shipped in whores in the ass !

It's more likely that Max will be the first guy traded for ciggarettes

Oh damn that was good, Remind me to run all further copy by you from now on.

Paully

I'm almost tempted to write Max but it would bring back too many childhood memories of writing to my dad and all the great racist/sexist humor he shared with me during my formative years as well as his hand drawn pieces of art copied freehand from various porno mags and adult humor mags. The wonderful tales of getting caught making jailhouse wine and the adventures of dad having his arsonist cell mate make match head incendiaries to throw into neighboring cells at other inmates engaging in late night homosexual activities which usually resulting in some minor burns and animosity from the "blueboys" as dad used to call them. Just talking about it makes me feel like I'm 8 years old again.

Actually, it was mother and her treatment of me that required the use of drugs and alcohol. I realized later that alot of the reason my old man couldn't get his shit together was because of the evil bitch he married. Given a choice between her and prison I'd take jail too.

There it is there.

Hey Paperchase, hope you don't mind but I had to put your rewrite up on some other boards. Too fucking funny. Peace out fuckers! For now.

Shit, he'd love it. I'll send him a copy.

Tell him to keep his head up. And fuck the people in this business that are happy he got convicted.

^ + 1 million

We gave Max some love the other day. This was awesome. Wait till I get done cutting this bitch. Here's a screencap, but know we had Scorp's blasting at full fucking tilt.

Claims to be one of the last interviews he did before being sent to the slammer. Layla Rivera is cute as a button. Max seems as drugged up as Phillip Anselmo. He also rambles on for about nine minutes in typical Phil fashion, maybe they are addicted to the same pain killers (Soma?) If you can make it all the way to the end there's a funny part where Layla comes back and says "you're STILL talking? Holy shit!"

Here's a question for the Max brain trust. How come they can't figure out a way to add new videos to his goddamn membership website? I mean once every three weeks is a fucking joke.

Gotcha, being handled as we speak. Lots o new shit coming up. BTW Thanks Blackpanther.

give Max my best and remind him not to drop the soap.

can casette tapes with music on be sent to max? if so, do they have to be a certain type? ei, clear. or a certain brand?

I'm not sure how Max's current difficulties have affected Layla's cash flow, but if she's doing privates, please let me know.

Has he embraced islam yet? Prisoners in Federal Pen often develop the irresistible urge to convert, I fear.

1 no

2 yes

Kidding, Brandon is a good guy, he's got got a hogleg for a dick and that won't pass even with the FX I can pull. As for being manly, don't know what your talking about unless your some tribaled out steroidedededed homo-faggot douchebag.

I hope the hymen was correct between homo and faggot, but someone forgot to pay their spellcheck bill.

Hey Jeff, thanks for that AVN Salute to Max brother. You are a King among Kings.

I'm not really sure I care about Max being in prison and all but I like the way Paulsy represents. The "tard helmet" post is truly xpt-worthy. Well played good sir.

However...

Giving Bi props for no apparent reason is just creepy and only serves to peg the the needle past eleven on the FAIL Meter. We all know what Bi represents(basically shit on your shoes before you smell it) and that is the scrape.
Figuratively.

I'm not sure where your interests lie, Paully, but maybe heads up is a good call here.

About all this talk of what will happen after max as regards to the continuation of the Max Hardcore Experience.
My thoughts are strongly, Close the Chapter. Max is a one off, There will never be another like him. To try and fill his boots is immpossable, Computer generated max is also a big no no as it purely spoils all the magic max has created. Faked computer max and randomised scripts will only undo all the magic max has created.

Paully, how is Max doing? He holding up alright?

I received a letter from him the other day and he seems to be fine.
