You should add a "Yes (With a Condition)" option because "Yes" seems to vague and straight forward to most of these people's replies.

No.

If someone does stupid things, then we take them and punish them to make them learn to not do it. If they continue, then we let nature kill them off.


Yes. Because usually when someone does something stupid it's a mistake that they later realize was stupid. Sometimes they are driven by other factors and at the time don't think about what they are doing. People learn from their mistakes, it's the best way to learn.

This is a stupid question.

Murder is a "stupid thing" are people allowed to learn from that?

well who defines what is stupid? if freedom is at stake, then you would have to make laws to define it. that would be ridiculous and impossible.

If it only hurts them than yeah.

If it only hurts them than yeah.

but its already illegal to purposely put yourself in (pointless) danger/injury or kill yourself.

How stupid something is is a relative opinion and therefore cannot be accurately determined.

Yes, it's their own fault if they do something stupid

If people are free to do things that are stupid, then they will (hopefully) have learned their lesson, and wouldn't do it again.

Yes.  Leave them to their stupidity, it will weed out the idiots as they slowly die off from, well, doing stupid things.

What kind of stupid things?

Yes.  Leave them to their stupidity, it will weed out the idiots as they slowly die off from, well, doing stupid things.
Yeah, let them do stupid things. If we let people do stupid things, nature will take over and weed them out. If we try to protect them they will continue to exist.
