That's a flawed analogy. I'd say that freedom is like water; it is a natural thing, and essential for human life, but occasionally some fool drowns in it. However, that doesn't mean that we should reduce the world's supply of it.

Sugar is a natural thing too.

You CAN kill yourself by drinking too much water.

Ok.

Don't like sugar go with water.

I'm not suggesting limiting the worlds supply of something.

I'm saying that "freedom" in a society, like sugar in a diet, can be gotten too much of.

Limits must be applied.

If you decided to get a good buzz one night you wouldn't quickly gulp down two fifths of bacardi 151 would you ?

Maybe 2 SHOTS.

It's about limits.

Drink two fifths if you're suicidal.

Two shots if you want to just get a little "high".

Kind of the same with freedom.
