Personal freedom ends where exercising one's freedoms would impinge on another's freedoms.Simple, isn't it? But even that can be used to limit personal freedom too far

How about my right to see people naked, how far does that get me?

The whole gay marriage rights thing makes me want to scream in peoples (Americans) face "RIGHT TO PERSUE HAPPINESS - isn't that what you people believe?!?"

[lissa_dora]

"Liberty, Justice, and Pursuit of Happiness," yep, unless it upsets someone's sense of right and wrong.

[panimu]

That last bit sounds made up

[logic_free_mind]

Dontcha mean "Life Liberty and the Pursuit of happiness"?

Ya know, those inalienable rights we're supposed to have untill other people decide to take em away and stuff...

Which, I always thought was kinda kewl, cuz we got no right to justice, just to the pursuit of it in order to make us happy.

Oh, that. *sighs* Yes, and now I feel stupid.

isn't "...and justice for all" something other than a Metallica album, though?

[logic_free_mind]

You mean like the end part of 'The Pledge of Allegiance"?

:)

How many people can still remember the whole thing now-a-days?

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation (under God) indivisible with liberty and justice for all.

I think.
