Why thank you!
But how do you define freedom? If everyone is absolutely free to do exactly what they want and not care at all for the consequences of what they do, that must mean that murderers are also free.
I am guessing by your response that you disagree that murderers, rapists should be free to murder and rape, so in your concept of freedom where do you draw the line? At what point do you consider that freedom should end and restraint should begin?

What most people don't understand is we have been divided into teams as lackeys and slaves to a dominant ruler and manager of that team, to cunduct the war of all against all.
It is what is behind the march to the New World Order, so the best way to loose your freedoms is to volunteer yourself onto a team, concepts of God, King and Country are what compel you to choose a team, and follow a leader.
This is the game that the elites are playing, the purpose of the game is like the Highlander Movies, there can be but one.
Exactly.

Yes,I know, lol! My question was rhetorical really in response to a specific post...
We often talk about freedom, but without responsibility freedom too can run amok in a very negative way!.
I guess, up to a point, it's a question of each of us defining that for ourselves, but it does also raise the question of how you define 'not harming another'.
Why is it ok for a mosque to be built 2.5 blocks from ground zero in spite of the fact that 70% of the country is against it because it is "insensitive" but it's not ok to be insensitive and burn religious books? Our president told us to suck it up about the mosque..."there is such a thing as freedom of religion in this country"....remember that? And our same president told the nutty pastor that he doesn't have that same freedom...why not?
To ONLY the extremists:
Here's your burning book
