@Channelknight Fadran YOU LISTENED TO HADESTOWN. *SCREAMING*
What'd'ya think???Ahhhh, the balance between freedom and security...
The endless question of human rights...
And other stuff.
If I could only have one and not the other I wouldn't want either.
Neither one is worth having without at least some of the other.
Generally I do tend to lean more towards safety, though.
But communism bad. -
I heard a quote from Ben Franklin along the lines of, "The man who will trade freedom for safety will find neither."
I have another one from Patrick Henery "Give me Liberty or Give me Death."
There is also one from Tolkien that I used to have a problem with but now sums up my feelings perfectly
Let's just say I take liberty to it's fullest, so long as no one else is directly affected, and I mean either hurt or their property is harmed, no one can tell you what to do.
