Like many Republican theocrats, he supports laws which provide jail time for people who use medicinal marijuana, who go to adult entertainment establishments, and who have consensual sodomy in the privacy of their home. These activities do not deprive any other individual of life, liberty or property, through force or fault. Therefore, those activities should be legal. Mr. Bennett likes to gamble. Obviously many Republican theocrats want to keep gambling illegal, particularly video poker and casino gambling. This is another activity which the government has no business legislating against.
