Some people think that governments should ban dangerous sports, while others think people should have freedom to do any sports or activity. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

Opinions are divided on whether extreme
sports
should be banned. I believe that
this
proposal would be unenforceable
due to
the risky nature of these activities and that
people
should be allowed to play any activities they like. Granted, one might argue that there should be a ban on dangerous
sports
.
This
is based on the assumption that any errors would probably cause the death of the player,
for example
when he or she is sky diving or parkouring on the rooftops of towering buildings.
However
,
this
line of reasoning is not sound because it fails to factor in the plausibility of enforcing
such
a ban. No police officer would be willing to risk their lives trying to prevent or arrest
people
who are parachuting off a mountain cliff or free-falling from an
air plane

In addition
to the impracticality of banning extreme
sports
, I am convinced that
people
should be permitted to do any
sports
as long as they understand the risks involved and receive sufficient training.
For example
, it is important that those who attempt to try extreme
sports
like deep ocean diving, sky diving or bungee jumping are required to register with a club, and that beginners must be accompanied by an expert. It is
also
imperative that they be taught about what to do when an accident occurs. With proper training and precautions, it would be relatively safe for
people
to play
sports
with a high degree of risk. In conclusion, I strongly feel that
people
should be given the autonomy to participate in any
sports
or activities including so-called dangerous
sports
, provided that they are aware of the danger involved and take appropriate precautions.
