It's illegal to use cocaine but it's not illegal for recovering drug addicts to write journals about how much they want to do the drugs.

It's illegal to murder people, but it is not illegal to dream about or even write out fantasies about killing your boss.

The thought police are ALWAYS wrong.

There have been people arrested for sending letters threatening to kill people - that's "writing" about it, isn't it? And as far as I'm concerned, doing drugs is a victimless crime, so writing about it is fine

I TOLD you I'd be a REALLY crappy judge :P Heck I'd sentence all child molesters to immediate death and give the relatives of the child a chance to do it themselves. h34r:
