“related to their self-abuse”
People own themselves. There is no pursuit of happiness without freedom to choose.
This by necessity involves the freedom to choose wisely or choose poorly.
This isn’t the collective that forces serfs into involuntary servitude and conformity to what the government believes is best.
Life is imperfect, but free.
Best.
You’re preaching to the choir with me. It was the OP who was for freedom... sometimes.
