Wanting to legalize all drugs is not really a left/right thing. It tends to be more of a liberal/authoritarian thing, or even just pragmatism. I'm in favour of legalizing drug use and supply under strict licence - an opinion I share with a lot of people whose other opinions I am diametrically opposed to.
Taking J S Mill's liberalism as a starting point (as I do) can lead to some very different opinions, from what I consider very right wing conservatism, to what they consider very left-wing socialism. I'm at the sweet spot somewhere between, as you've probably all noticed from the fact that I'm always right about everything. :o) -- Cheers, Bob > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On > Behalf Of Mark Roberts > Sent: 27 September 2006 12:23 > To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List > Subject: Re: Street photography - religious objections (now politics) > > P.
