If Portman’s son was a thief, would he favor the legalization of theft?

Democrats, in fact, do that ~ they have relatives who are criminals so they seek to pass laws that justify the crimes.

So Romney had another Democrat on his short list, and a gay to boot. Think he was looking for easier hookups or something?

A close parallel is the evolution of marijuana laws.

When the kids of influential people started getting popped for possession back in the hippie days, and faced the harsh prison sentences routinely handed out to the underclass, the law quickly moderated and sentences became relaxed for the little darlings.

Possession is no longer even a “crime” in most states.
