I guess, it takes one, to know one. It's a long-standing belief of mine that those who expound the toughest lines, the harshest laws, and the strictest regulations are the same people that actually would make these laws necessary, if they had the opportunity. Curiously enough it often are the socially conservative "law & order" factions, so I am not surprised that the right-wingers are made from similiar cloth.

Of course, and to be fair, many of the ultra-rights do not even pretend, they say openly that they are against the rule of law. So nepotism, cronyism, and corruption are obviously on the table.
