How extensive is your porn collection?

MI man sues parents over pornography collection

 

A Grand Haven man is suing his parents for throwing out his pornography collection.

 

A court order legally made Gavin Grimm a man. And he is listed as male on his birth certificate, passport and a state-issued identification card in California. (Source: MGN)

 

He says it was no ordinary collection and was worth tens of thousands of dollars.

 

His parents say they threw it out for a good reason.

 

Since it's a civil case with no criminal charges, the names and identities of the parties are being kept anonymous.

 

The man moved back into mom and dad's Grand Haven home in October of 2016 following a divorce, doing household chores in lieu of paying rent, federal court documents explain.

 

He moved out just 10 months later.

 

In December 2017, his parents allegedly delivered boxes of his stuff to his new place in Indiana, but, when they arrived, he noticed many of his possessions are missing.

 

His parents allegedly told him they destroyed 12 moving boxes full of pornography.

 

Unable to work it out with his parents, he called the Ottawa County Sheriff's Department, declaring his collection worth about $29,000.

 

The prosecutor's office eventually declined to press charges in the matter.

 

Just a month later, he began reaching out to his dad through e-mail.

 

According to the lawsuit, he wrote, "If you had a problem with my belongings, you should have stated that at the time and I would have gone elsewhere. Instead, you choose to keep quiet and behave vindictively."

 

His father responded, "Believe it or not, one reason for why I destroyed your porn was for your own mental and emotional heath. I would have done the same if I had found a kilo of crack cocaine. Someday, I hope you will understand."

 

The man reached back out to investigators, allegedly sending one officer 44 emails worth of movies he says were destroyed, listing many as valuable out-of-print films.

 

The prosecutor again declined to file charges.

 

Fast forward to April 2019, he filed suit against his parents, seeking $86,000 in damages.

Unless there was some agreement where the parents took responsibility for moving all his possessions it's his responsibility.

This is a funny one for me ethically. In the end, I think he’s right. You can’t just destroy

another person’s property. Although if he was a renter, and he left the possessions behind,

I think the landlord has a right to dispose of them. If the parents contacted him first and

asked him to remove his junk, and he didn’t....I’d side with the parents.

 

Even if he’s your child he’s an adult now, and you can’t just take his porn and destroy

it like he’s a 12 year old child.

 

I still think the kid, and his parents, are both dicks.

Apparently modesty, like water, seeks its own level. I would have personally and discreetly moved those 12 boxes in and out of my parents' home.

When I moved two years ago, I had accumulated a fairly large amount of books, videos, bar magazines, gay magazines, etc.

 

The University of Missouri at Kansas City took most of the collection to add to its gay collection. Especially interested in those old bar magazines that came out weekly for the sociology department to study and chart the local history of the gay community.

Clearly I am under invested in porn...

Just a few vids. My partner watch them during sex sometimes.

I deacquired several years ago. Too difficult to move. Streaming is sufficient at my age.

my stuff is on my pc or on a back up drive. not in any ones way.

 

if you leave your stuff at your parents home then you don't really have a complaint if they clean up their home. i do think

the parents should have told him they would be tossing his stuff but i don't blame them for tossing the stuff.

[Rod Hagen]

I have 1.19 Terabytes of porn files...so far.

I think of "extensive" as a rather subjective term. Would I want my family to have to clear out the porn I have, not so sure. But it does me just fine.
