And fags, and nudists, and whoremongers, and
those who don't want to be told what to eat, even
if it's beef (or pork), and those who oppose every
sort of paternailist or maternalistic nannygoat
state-mongers.

I think the real crime in this country is when whatever
brand of nannygoat manages to become fashionable
exacts its draconian desire to rule the private lives of
others by instituting whatever prohibitionism they
favor.

"The nannygoat is the worst sort of tyrant, because
unlike the selfish tyrant, who becomes sated eventually,
the nannygoat will never leave you alone, because the
nannygoat tyrannizes you for your own good."
-paraphrase of C.S. Lewis

re: illusion of harmless illegalities

Please keeep in mind: We're discussing "philosophy," not defending (or
offending) ideology(ies)

The n.g. agenda is trying to determine what is truth or reality

In this vein: The phenomena of "crime w/o victim" is ambiguous
premise or phrase or at least ill-defined

Because:

If everything is relative, then there is no separate action or element
unto itself

The drinker, doper, gambler, has his/her relations to kin and others
"victims"

The community is "harmed" or victimized by irresponsible, imprudent
behavior

If ye smoke chains, then Medicare (national health insurance,
taxpayers, social security) may well eventually have to pick-up the
tres cher health problrems.

Though I certainly acknowledge so-called "crime" can also be
economically "beneficial" to community commerce through medical
products and services
