Allowing the majority to rule through law. Most of us are against something, even though it doesn't hurt anyone, it disgusts us, so let's make a law. We've been used to it for too long so it doesn't seem like a big deal, but really, it is. It wouldn't be any different to start making women cover their faces in public or banning pork.
