Coked Up Flag Burning Homos

Firstly, the urge to control other people whose behavior does not harm and has no affect upon me seems unsavory. A litmus test I use for considering legislation is the demonstration of harm. No harm or potential for harm, no law. Legislation concerning flag burning, recreational drug use and gay marriage come to mind.

If I purchase an American flag and burn it what harm has been done to you? If two guys get married what harm does this do to you? If I want to snort a couple lines of cocaine and not use heavy machinery, what harm has been done to you? Feel free to demonstrate the harm.

So, riddle me this: If a law limits behavior that will not harm others, what has the law accomplished?
