What is currently legal but you think should be illegal?

Abortion.

cigarettes because they give people lung cancer. killing animals in anti cruelty society if no one buys them. giving electric shocks to autistic kids in judge rotenberg center. parents allowed to send their kids to brat camp without proving they're troublemakers.

i saw it on tv. it's a camp where the kids are forced to walk for miles, sometimes in the snow, carrying a backpack so heavy they sometimes need help putting it on. not allowed to brush their teeth or take a shower for three days, awakened at three in the morning and ordered to fold their sleeping bags in five minutes, or they'll have to do it all again and again.

i dont mind troublemakers kids going there, because there are kids there according to the tv, who are violent, staying out all hours, drinking, threatening their own parents with violence etc. but one boy was sent there because his mother thought he was lazy and didnt like doing chores, and another girl was sent there for no reason. although this is rare, it shouldnt happen at all. should be questioning before acceptance as to whether or not this is a troublemaker kid, otherwise it's just child abuse.

MOBA games. Maybe all other online games as well. In this country in particular. (Really, they are known to be sore loser trash-talkers and scammers over the gamer community)
Granted, the legal process is already happening but on small scale.

Maybe online chatting in general would require certain standards in this country as well

Because of the two above, the ones from the capital and major cities are the 'Internet stereotype'; which is not even ¼ of the entire population.

Last but not least; Close-mindedness. Enough said.

We already have enough s**t in this country that's illegal without adding other people's pet peeves and personal problems to the whole roster of crimes.

I say we should learn to toughen up as a whole. Stop the ridiculous hate speech crimes. Words are words. Yes, they hurt if they are said by somebody you care about. I don't think we need to muzzle the a**holes out there who if we just let them keep on saying what they will, will get their ass beat well enough eventually. We need to stop bitching about smokers and yes, many smokers need to learn to be polite about it too! I've been a nonsmoker and a smoker and it sucks as a nonsmoker when smokers don't think about your comfort. I always ask if it's going to bother somebody and if it does, I won't smoke. Alcohol can be a real pain in the ass but making it illegal won't stop anything. We should make all drugs legal and available over the counter and then just let natural selection work. If you are stupid enough to shoot up heroin and coke together then you deserve what you get.

We don't need to go overboard about everything. We have enough BS laws already that tie up noncriminals in court so some people now want to make just the things that hurt their little feelings illegal? I don't think so.

The only thing I can think of that I'd make illegal is, as Fnord said, whining. And maybe overprotecting your child so he's only prepared for a life of entitled whining. Overprotecting, yeah, definately.
