You forgot to mention all the "drugs" that are illegal because the state doesn't profit from them! :eek:

It's illegal, then why does it show up so much in BDSM?

Some would say they're illegal so certain individuals connected to the state *can* profit from them.

This book is a great read to see how many consenual crimes there are in the United States. I didn't know punting was one of them, lol

Thanks for the online version! :) It opened my eyes too at 21, really reinforcing beliefs I had had for years.
