CMV: People should be allowed to do whatever they want unless they harm another human with their actions.

I've been thinking about any good argument that could be brought up against this view for quite a while now but I haven't been able to come up with anything beyond debate over what is harmful and what isn't.

This view extends to virtually all aspects of human life from religious views to drug abuse. I feel like too many of our problems come from the fact that we want to control other people's lives.
We shouldn't intrude personally nor should our laws intrude in other people's lives against their will, if someone want's to piss away their lives on heroin, let them, it's their decision what they do with their lives.

By this standard, attempted murder wouldn't be a crime. If you shoot at someone and miss, no problem.

If let's say you drive drunk, there's only a penalty if you hit someone?

At the end of the day, a lot of law covers behaviors that create risk, but not necessarily harm every time. The difference between risk and harm is merely luck.
