Absolute freedom is not a good thing.
Freedom to kill and rape.
Freedom to use violence and force.
Freedom to oppress and dominate others.
These things are not good.
And we should not defend them in the name of freedom.
Likewise rigid Legalism is not a good thing.
Enforcing rules that are not based in reason.
Infringing on people's inalienable rights.
Forcing people to conform out of fear.
These things are not good.
And we should not defend them in the name of responsibility.
We should not allow law to become oppression.
And we should not allow freedom to become lawlessness.
We do not have the right to force our views onto others.
And we do not have the right to do harm to others.
My rights end where the next person's rights begin.
