if it weren't illegal

I feel much calmer whenever I'm naked, probably due to my minor agoraphobia.

I'll leave the rest to your imagination.

I'd also open a bakery except all of the food is made of cannabis and fingernails.

On the other hand, I'd break into peoples' homes, and empty a can of the best food in the world, surstromming, in their fridge, on any pet(s) they have, and in their bathtub. And when they get back, I'd tie them up, empty a can of surstromming on their face, and I'd smile through the whole thing.

I'm not into murder and stuff like that so the only illegal things i would be doing if they were legal i am already doing so it would just be cheaper and easier to get so would be cool.

trespassing, vagrancy, loitering, etc. unrestricted access to everywhere would be pretty sweet. it would definitely motivate me to go outside and explore if the entire world wasn't a solid red zone.

I'm boring. Aside from speeding whenever I feel like it, and running red lights whenever no cars are coming, I can't really think of anything else I'd do. I'm too moral to steal anything, unless it's from someone who is themselves a crook.

I don't believe that's actually illegal. And legal or illegal I'm pretty sure you'd still be fired for it.

Grow myself a lot of certain plants, mushrooms and cacti.
I don't think growing mushrooms or cacti is illegal either, and yes I know what kind of mushroom/cacti you're talking about. Growing cannabis, which I assume is the plant you're talking about, is also legal in some places.

Smoke huge blunts while walking around wherever feeling like a badass cuz everybody is lookin and smelling it yet they can't do anything. Also turn my whole backyard... maybe even some of my front yard into a freakin cannabis plantation. Fertilize and nurture the hell out of that shit, sell some, give some to friends. I'd make it a whole hobby, tea, bake brownies maybe learn how to make huge cigars, etc.

Right now I don't even smoke any cuz I don't want to be paying out the nose for it. Same thing with liquor. I'd make myself some homebrew beer but... meh.

I can't think of anything else i'd want to do though.

All 3 are illegal to grow in the UK.

If urinating in the street is illegal, then I'm pretty sure taking a shit in a public workplace, on someone's desk, will definitely be illegal as well. Indecent exposure springs to mind.

Well, it doesn't surprise me those from the first world (US, UK, etc...) have little to say when this question is posed directly, being extremely free societies to begin with.

The big issue with a question like this is that it ultimately comes down to competing human rights, basically your right not to be subjected to something, as opposed to your right to do something. Most of the things people seem to wish they could do are illegal mainly to protect someone else's work (if it was yours, and you invested in creating it, you'd probably want to benefit from it and be able to live off your creation), or to not subject society to the results, while advocates disagree (and are winning for the moment) smoking the mighty Ganja is illegal because of concerns over crime if people were to drive while smoking, and of course issues like the odor clinging to people's clothes. It's become more viable in recent years due to all the crackdowns on cigarettes, so if they use similar policies as far as public areas and such are concerned, a lot of the issues will be dealt with.

That said I'm pretty much one of those bad guys, who would argue that to make things better at this point arguably involves stopping other people from doing things, as opposed to wanting to do things myself for the most part. I for example am a big believed in capitalism, but I believe that like everything it has to exist in moderation, as contradictory as that might sound. Right now as far as I'm concerned a big problem in the US is huge corporations, bankers, and a handful of financial gurus who have pretty much taken control of the entire economy and rule like
kings. I'm all for people making a ton of money and accumulating fortunes where they and their descendants can live in the lap of luxury without having to work. The problem is when you get people, and groups of people, who make more money than they or even the grandkids of their grandkids could ever reasonably spend, and then want more. Beyond a certain point it becomes a game to this mentality it seems, but one where the "fun" of building up their numbers comes at the expense of the rest of society. In short, a few greedy buttheads who take it to a whole new level and ruin it for everyone else, especially when the "game" involves keeping people down as much or more than simply building themselves up. I'm not a believer in socialism OR communism, but I do very much believe in taking strong action against the top
of the financial ladder beyond a certain point. If someone has/is worth a few hundred million or even a billion dollars that's fine, but when you look at corporations and banking groups that effectively make the members of the ruling board worth trillions of dollars, that's just bloody wrong. At that point society needs to pretty much be able to say "okay, hold on here, that's enough".

The only difference I can think of is I would carry a gun in public. Even that I plan to do when I'm 21 anyway, so it wouldn't have a huge effect on my actions.

Sorry to hear that then.

Wouldn't your bosses desk be commercial property, not public property like the street? At least in the states I don't think it's illegal to defecate/urinate on commercial property unless you're trespassing to begin with. At worst you might get slapped with disorderly conduct.

This. The way I see it, the Government only really needs to step in once your business spreads beyond your city limits or, if you have to hire more than a handful of people.

Living on the East Coast of the US, I don't see why anybody can't just hunt deer. Not indefinitely but for a few months out of the year things should just be a free-for-all (figuratively speaking). If someone kills a deer and doesn't know what to do with it, I'm sure there are numerous places the carcass can be taken but if you live in this area you've likely heard for years now about how the Deer population is out of control. You likely also hear about how many people hit deer while driving to or from their home and end up dying as a result.

Home owners associations: group of massive pricks telling you how your house should look like or they sue.

For example, my father wanted to build a practice golf range in his backyard. HOA bitched about it because they think they have the right to. I personally disagree with my father because I hate having a practice golf range taking up most of the backyard, but it should be between me and him. I don't want some stupid pricks thinking they have say in this.

I once had a conversation with one of them and gosh, I wish I had a free pass for murder.

So to summarize, having things in my backyard as long as people think its reasonable. (oh for goodness sake, this sounds ridiculous).
Uh with home owners associations don't you knowingly sign a contract when you purchase the house that says you will abide by the terms of the home owners' association? You may not like that they have a say in it, but your neighbours might not want to have to look at a golf course. I remember a story a while back about a guy who wanted to pave his backyard with concrete and it got blocked. If it is a big deal wouldn't the ideal thing have been to buy a house in an area with no home owners association?


OT: I would buy a nice large stockpile of dangerous guns. The law can shove it up their arsenal! hue
There probably is a paper signed by my father. But HOA went out of their way to come across un-likeable. That was after my father collected signatures from neighbors for his/her approval.

I also read a story about a parent who built a beautiful small jungle gym for their chldren to play in. HOA didn't like it because they're HOA.

There's also another story of a veteran who wanted to raise American flag in the backyard. HOA didn't like it as well and went to the court with the veteran.

In my area, its hard to find houses with no HOA. Its not a big deal now, but they certainly can be a pain in the ass for the most insignificant things.

We got the same system, so it isn't really an issue here either. Was mainly another reason alongside with public drunks being extremely annoying when you're sober. However it can often look really awful the morning after a larger party in a park. Not only beer cans, but tons of other trash as well.
We haven't banned picnics though... :p

Could be a cultural thing though. As I recall you Germans can start drinking a lot earlier than in Sweden. Here we gotta be 18 to drink in a pub and 20 to purchase booze from the store. The people that do park drinking here is generally 14-18 year olds, so I can imagine the law being a counter measure to keep them from drinking.
Yeah we have it at 16/18 although the difference being 16 for beer and wine and 18 for hard liquor, not depending on location on drinking.
What i don't understand in your argumentation is: When the law is kinda there to stop those 14 - 18 year olds from drinking in parks could the police just the argument that they are not 18 yet and therefore not allowed to drink when they stop these people from drinking?

I'd love to be able to enter and exit any country I'd like to, whenever I'd like to, and stay wherever I wanted to as long as I wanted without worrying about visas.

I'm probably not a very good person, but I suppose I might be tempted to introduce a truckload of angry badgers to the local ecosystem for a laugh.

two separate questions. I am all for drug legalization and gay marriage, but I have no intention of doing either of those things. There isn't really much that I would do but can't because it's illegal. I'm a simple man, with few desires, none of them illegal.

Edit: the two posts above me made me think. I do wish visas/passports weren't a thing, and I'd also approve of a decreasing of the age of majority to 16, and or a unification so no rights are delayed beyond age of majority(IE buying booze)

Scare tactics to keep them away so they won't have to drive home a bunch of drunk kids every weekend?
It wasn't really an argument of mine, just something that came to mind.

If it weren't illegal, I would drive waaaaaaaay above the speed limit in Northern Saskatchewan. Long stretches of road with no traffic for hours. It would cost a fortune in gas but driving fast is a guilty pleasure of mine. One I would like to indulge in a little more. I have never gotten a ticket for it but I will say for a 3 minute sprint I saw what my car could do.

It's a good thing I don't own a sports car. The temptation would probably be too much. I have to watch the needle as it is.

That's considerably more practical than my idea. It would be interesting to stand on a stretch of beach along the coast and watch the different boats sail in from across the ocean, or see the different types of aircraft taking off and landing at airports or just in empty fields. You'd probably meet a much wider variety of people in a week.
