Megan McArdle (Replying to: RIRedinPA) August 28, 2009 9:37 AMThere's more.
Yes, yes my liberties and freedoms would be endangered. Most basically, because nothing should be forbidden unless it is extremely dangerous to others, which gun ownership by non-felons is not.
Megan McArdle (Replying to: RIRedinPA) August 28, 2009 12:35 PMI cannot ovulate.
Yes, seriously. If you can't do something that I can do, you have less liberty and freedom. (They also have a lot fewer procedural civil rights, but that's another issue)
And I'm done. I'll leave the remaining expansion of her totally relevant Black Panther analogy for Susan, if she wants it.

Your drivers license is taking my freedom away.
No, wait, my drivers license reduces your freedom.
Brain hurts.
"...because nothing should be forbidden unless it is extremely dangerous to others, which gun ownership by non-felons is not."
That might be the single most stupid thing Megan has ever written, and we're talking about a lot of stupid here. Christ, 99% of the Manson Family were non-felons up until the Tate/LaBianca murders. Kids who show up at their schools and wipe out their classmates are non-felons. I'm sure if I could be bothered to look it up, I'd find that the overwhelming majority of killers were non-felons at the time of their crimes.
How can one person be so stupid and still figure out how to survive?
I cannot get testicular cancer, therefore freedom is an illusion.
Megan takes "Nothing is true; everything is permitted" literally.
all is allowed. nothing is forbidden.
i think megan is aleister crowley.
Freedom is theft.
Theft is special rights.
I cannot speak french.
I find your inability to speak French an affront to my right to be understood while speaking French. If I spoke French, which I don't.
Voila!
