Could you clarify what common law is?

The term is perhaps a little overloaded with history, but in a criminal law
context it basically means laws against theft, rape, and murder (and all of
the usual lesser versions of those kinds of crimes).

The parental role of the government isn?t necessarily bad.

True, but that has nothing to do with my civil liberties or the greater
concept of freedom. I absolutely demand the right to do things that might be
expensive, harmful, stupid, etc. as a matter of right.

Assuming that you dont infringe on others rights (as I gather from your last
comment).

If I choose to ride a motorcycle without a helmet that is my business. Just
as it is my business when I crack my head like an egg against the pavement.
