Liberty is "being able to live freely, as long as it doesn't impose on others."

It's "freedom from undue prior restraint."

Freedom by itself, absolutely is "Doing whatever I want." and "Not having to do what others tell me."

Freedom is either having nothing left to lose, or not having a fuck to give.

"Freedom's just another word for... nothing left to lose."

That's fine for you and your Bobby McGee, but what about the rest of us? What about those of us who are busted flat in Baton Rouge, to name one random example example?

This.

Freedom from a central authority including freedom to put others at risk. To ruin other people's lives

But it's OK because other people are free to react accordingly.

By surrendering responsibility to the state to police acts of danger and ruination we lost our freedom to deal to them ourselves.

Now when criminals enter our homes the first risk is from the criminal the second from the police. How dare you defend yourself.

A truly free society forms a reflection of themselves.
