Are the laws being made today going too far?

Asked by anothermember (249points) November 29th, 2010

Or is it justified? More and more laws are being made to help prevent other laws being broken. Two examples in N.Z. are:
1.There is a new law to stop gangs wearing “patches” in central areas to stop gangs fighting and intimidating people.

2. There is another new law that makes driving down the same stretch ( Cruising ) of road illegal to try and stop boy racers.

To me these laws seem crazy, when does it stop, will there be another law soon that bans people from dressing themselves in case they decide to wear a patch?
