I would like a poll for what is more absurd in the mind of users here, this law where you get fined for being sexist etc or a 2nd amendment where it is okay to buy and carry weapons.

This Belgian law reminds me of parenting. I've seen and heard many parents say something down the lines off, "we're letting you go to this party, but be home by 10pm, don't get drunk and if you do get a taxi home or call us and we'll pick you up." then after a year of not listening and breaking the rules the parents go, "Fuck it. You are grounded, no more parties, no pocket money, no playstation until you start behaving again."

We did this at work too where we had a relaxed dress code as long as it wasn't offensive, too street, etc but then a lot of the younger staff started to abuse the freedom they were given so a stricter dress code was reinforced screwing everyone over.

Brats in any part of the world Fuck it up for everyone. Cause and effect. It's part of adulthood, or used to be at least. You do stupid shit, you need to take responsibility for your actions. It would be interesting to know if they give out similar fines for racism too.
