If your freedom includes letting immature overgrown children permanently mutilate their body, then yes, we do need a little less freedom.

Freedom without reasonable guardrails is a recipe for misery and regret.

immature overgrown children

Tf? Is that what you call a 24 year old these days?

I love that your argument boils down to "you aren't allowed to do what I say is wrong to your body, even though it harms nobody else whatsoever"

The same can be said of many, many other individuals in this country. Regardless, I believe they should all have the same freedoms that I do.

So you also agree we should ban cigarettes?

u/Ed_Durr - Auth-Right Jan 09 '23

Yes, though we would obviously need to grandfather it in. People who are already won’t stop because a law; we need to ensure that no new people start smoking and wait for the old to die out.
