You really do. Governments can't arbitrarily make you do whatever they want through laws; they have to have good reasons for it that are acceptable by the people, and no one thinks it's acceptable for governments to harm their own citizens over an act the OP emphatically tells us harms no one.

An act that really doesn't mean anything more than a minor inconvenience and annoyance for everyone else.

And you want to harm people over it.

They're not the ones who are disgusting. You are.
