Answer 1

In a few states there are controversial legislations and it may vary from state to state. One of the current such legislation that was passed was by the Israel parliament. The parliament allowed the MPs to support for armed struggle against the state. Such controversial legislations affects the all the people in the society (women, children, disparity populations, elderly and the terminally ill) and though it affects everyone in the society, this has become a growing trend nowadays. The reason behind this growing trend is because the parliament/the legislative assembly focuses on their objective and do not consider the safety of the society and its people.
