“I am the libertarian traditionalist Catholic ...” That self-description reveals a raging, unresolvable conflict within the Judge right there.

A traditionalist Catholic such as the judge is okay with queer marriage and legalizing marijuana reefer, retard sticks? Would St. Thomas Acquinas approve?

He posts here - let's ask him.

He's previously remarked:

"St. Thomas reasoned that the calculation for criminalizing a vice should weigh the damage resulting from the vice against the damage caused by criminalization. He even believed that there were circumstances where it would be better to tolerate prostitution than criminalize it.

"Anyway, the calculation regarding drug legalization is complex. But I think we have reached the point where criminalization has caused more harm than good."
