Yes. I think you might see my dilemma.
Being right and consistent are at odds here.
I think alcohol and tobacco should be able to advertise. And if that is the case, I would have to allow Pharm, even though I find their advertising much more grating and, as you point out, carrying more political baggage to me.
But then I am one of those people who thinks we should be able to carry firearms and weapons (all kinds) openly and without a specific license.
