And I would vehemently reject such a law. I'm fine with outlawing things that are harmful (noise, threats, obstruction) but protest itself should be legal. Not useful is not enough to ban something in a liberal country: it has to be unduly harmful, and expressing displeasure with someone outside of their home is not that. To pass such a law would imply that it is, and I would consider anyone who takes that position unfit to govern.
