   Gotta save them from themselves, don’t you know.

What gives? Isn’t that the very mantra of regulating Liberals?


...and this comes from the same person who said: “to advocate complete freedom without responsibility is to be an Anarchist, not a freedom-lover”

Not sure what you are saying here. When I said “responsibility”, I meant personal responsibility.

What if your countrymen shirk that “responsibility”?

   As I have stated elsewhere, Freedom without morality is doomed. I don’t need an amoral government to be my conscience.

But you welcome one which reflects your own narrow moral views?
