Should the EU move towards a more integrated legal system with uniform civil and criminal laws across all member states?

Should homeless individuals, that have refused available shelter or housing, be allowed to sleep or encamp on public property?

Should immigrants from high risk countries be banned from entering the country until the government improves its ability to screen out potential terrorists?
