"By capturing rainwater, some homeowners are breaking the law. This
has put city and state governments in an awkward position-smack in
the middle of competing water users and advocates, often from within
their own agencies, of conserving water to protect supplies."

Some say rainwater should follow its natural course instead of being
diverted by homeowners so that the homeowner's betters can allocate
the water based on need - or political pressure - to those more, um,
worthy of wetting.
It's for the children.
If the government says that I can't keep the water that falls on my
land, let the government keep the water from falling on it!!!!!
There's a lot of Apache and Blackhawks that fly over my land. If one
falls, I wonder if I can keep it, :-)
If it actually falls out of the sky, you probably wouldn't want it.
