The subject is pretty self-explanitory here, put down actions that you can think of that are evil or wrong, but shouldn't ever be illegal.
Things that are morally wrong but should be legal

Surely any such action would be too trivial to be of much merit, and very difficult to argue for or against. For instance, I could point out that many consider alcohol consumption and extramarital sex to be intrinsically wrong (especially the latter), but there would always be a high number of people who would disagree.
I see morals as a subjective and collective matter. So I dont think anything is inherently morally wrong or evil. Its just what people have agreed to call morally wrong or evil.
So my standing is, nothing should be illegal, so long as it does not impede anyone elses ability to have that same freedom.
Even for bad, potentially dangerous things. More power to those who want to do them. We are the dominant species on the planet with no natural predators, it makes sense we build something in that will naturally thin out our herd.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but you seem like you're advocating murder here, regardless of motive.viranimus said:

No, because that would prevent others from their freedoms. Murder is taking away ones ability to everything. So no. However I am not opposed to things that cause death such as suicide, or stupidity from drug abuse or other ways people can kill themselves due to their own sheer ignorance or lack of willpower..
Im not sure you can really ask that, its basically asking what horrible things would you like to do, but can't because its against the law
All verbal and emotional abuse taking place between groups and people of legal age and full mental maturity.
It can do some harm, and can thus be unethical, but never enough to warrant bringing into force a system ultimately relying on physical force.

I think the most important part is the fact where he mentions that it should not impede other people's freedom. Being in a casket tends to limit what people can do, especially when your hearth has stopped beating. He sounds more as a objectivist then anything else.Mittens The Kitten said:
