There's very little to correct here

The American Nightmare – crack a smile on law
Every one of us appreciates living in a civilized, lawful society, although youth especially tempts us to transgress the law and to test the limits. The conformism of being nonconformist! Often we are expected to scorn conformity, to refuse law-abidance and to be autonomous, living according to our own laws, being independent from the system. Rebelliousness. Insubordination. Noncompliance. We want to be free and a law unto ourselves. Our parents call it hormones, puberty, obstreperousness. In the end most of our attempts to cross the line stay rather harmless: we change our hair colour, we listen to music unbearable to our parents' ears. We are capricious. This is our way of crossing the line, of attaining freedom, without really getting on the wrong side of the law; because in reality, we all appreciate the amenities of a lawful state. But here there are some rules the transgression of which still might be smiled at and given consent and approval, even by the police. Just read through this compilation of laws and then choose one or two to break (maybe not the bear wrestling rule). Preferably you should not be a citizen of the state the rule of which you intend to break.
'Every one' is usually written as one word, but not always. This is the best explanation that I could find for it:

It's a very minor point. I think most native speakers would just write 'everyone' every time.
"Smiled a consent and approval at" is confusing. I think you meant this to be something like "to smile sth. at sb.", but that construction isn't possible.
"Just read through this compilation of laws..." - This makes it sound like you're about to list what laws you mean. Is that what you meant?

The American Nightmare – crack a smile on law
Every one (I already answered this in great detail, but never mind - think of 'each and every one' the emphasis is on 'one', separate and distinct from 'everyone') of us appreciates living in a civilized, lawful society. Although especially our youth especially tempts (adverb closer to verb) us to transgress the law and to test the limits. The conformism of being nonconformist! Often we are expected to scorn conformity, to refuse law-abidance (good try, abidance is barely ok but rarely used and 'law-abidance' is too big a stretch) and to be autonomous, living according to our own laws, being independent from 'The System'. Rebelliousness. Insubordination. Noncompliance. Anarchy and Chaos! We want to be free and a law unto ourselves. Our parents call it hormones, puberty, adolescence, fractiousness, obstreperousness. In the end most of our attempts to cross the line stay rather harmless, much like spitting : We change our hair colour, we listen to music unbearable to our parents' ears. We are capricious. This is our way of crossing the line, of attaining freedom, without really getting on the wrong side of law. Because in reality, we all appreciate the amenities of a lawful state. But here there are some rules the transgression of which still might be smiled a consent and approval at – even by the police. Just read through this compilation of laws and then chose one or two to break. (maybe not the bear wrestling rule) . Preferably you should not be a citizen of the state the rule of which you intend to break.
Whoops I discovered where the original notebook entry was, so I'll abandon this one. Once is quite enough.
Why is this here twice!!!! bugger! you want me to say the same things again! :(
