Society is based on rules and laws. It could not function if individuals were free to do whatever they wanted to do. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Ever since humans chose to live in communities, they have been guided by certain regulations, but of late, many have been fiercely arguing over the need for such guidelines: some are in favor of conventional set-up, while others dissent.
A school of thought opines that strict norms are must to let inhabitants lead a safe life that is insulated from unlawful acts. To see this through, various laws are instituted to minimize criminal activities such as thefts, burglaries, rapes, and so on. If measures to curtail unlawful acts were not adopted, anti-social elements would have a free run jeopardizing public safety. Moreover, many also make a mention of the need for certain conventions to ensure a harmonious social environment to afford an enjoyable life to inhabitants. Steps taken to keep a check on atrocities against women, animals and elderly, and drug abuse to name a few render a humane outlook to society, and prevent inhabitants from indulging in evil practices.
Nevertheless, many, despite being driven by misplaced
notions, debunk the that opinions that lobby
for laws, as they propose that these impede free life and encroach on the
privacy of individuals. Society is made for humans and not vice
versa, as this lobby asserts. The law makers use their power and clout to
thrust their will on common people: using their whims and fancies, they dictate
their terms onto others and want the latter to lead the life as desired
by a few elite. Most laws instituted, as per them, are meant to prevent the have-nots from
progressing and harnessing their abilities.
Overall, I strongly vouch for the opinion that stands for imposition
of certain norms pivotal to sustaining a
harmonious social environment where each inhabitant can exist peacefully and
without fear.
