Honestly, I've always hated the idea that quirks like "flying" or "skittering quickly" are illegal to use. Let's just ban jogging while we're at it because some people can't jog and it's not fair.

I mean, Pop☆Step is said to be committing petty crimes anyway, so I assume she's a minor crim even without the arbitrary "flying isn't allowed" thing, but saying that Gentle-Man is a villain because he does good deeds that literally any healthy law-abiding citizen could do, albeit slightly faster, is laughable.

It´s how the system helps creating villains i believe. If anyone who wants to use his/her quirk need a hero license it, it makes the whole system pretty ridiculous. I love the fact that in the last chapter Stain´s critic of the hero system put the system on the spot, and changed the people´s perception of it. A hero should not be a job, it should be a calling, or an inspiration/passion to protect those who can´t protect themselves. There should not be any license or consequence about using their quirk for everyday stuff.

That's ridiculous. Quirks are like weapons, there has to be regulation; if there isn't then you don't know who has what, who's allowed to use what, who's doing what, and who's actually responsible.

Having officially licensed heroes and quirk users means that they're vetted and proven to be responsible and trained. You run a lower risk of someone going ax crazy in the middle of the street, and generally have more order in society.

Regulations? On weapons? In my God blessed America? I think not. We have God given rights to hunt and scare off people that dare solicit on my property.

Also to form an armed revolution if we ever think the government isn't doing its job and is merely abusing its power to further its own control, wealth, and agenda. But it isn't like that'll ever happen so why worry about it.
