With that being said, I didn't state Roy Moore deserved to go to jail or even be sued, I said he was unfit to judge others.

Growing pot is a crime because people smoke it and often persuade others to smoke it as well. While the act of growing it is a victimless crime, it can and usually does involve victims later on. Therefore, it "indirectly" does have victims. In Judge Moore's case, however, he could've displayed those Commandments for 30 years and not hurt anyone.
I can agree that his insubordination makes him unfit to judge.
