So opt in yourself, leave the rest of us alone.

The problem is that things change that we can't forsee, and suddenly the things that were once commonplace could be outlawed. Imagine the US decided the public can't own guns anymore, and a half a million people stand up and say I'm not giving you my gun. The police start going door to door doing gun searches, and people fight back, martial law is ordered, etc. Cops are getting shot. Suddenly you might have something to hide, because something you think is your right is taken away. You might look back and wonder why you gave away your rights, because you couldn't predict the future.
