Laws are all paternalistic because they limit a person's or a group's autonomy and freedom for their own good. For example, if a person chooses to go to a bar and drink too much, then attempt to drive, they can be arrested for drunk driving. The law is in place to protect the driver and other citizens from the drunk driver's behavior.
