Perhaps "we" don't want to, but I think the world would be better off
without the behaviours described in the quote.  If it really would
"make a lot of you felons", I believe that "lot of you" need to clean
up your acts.

Now, if only there were some way to enact it *and* get it enforced
fairly *and* suppress mission creep, I might support it.  (Not that my
support or lack thereof would matter, me being on the wrong side of
your northern border....)
