extremists?

Why?
I find some woman to be particularly disturbing they cannot run fast enough to give away the rights earned merely 90 years ago. I simply want to know why after years of suffering to get these rights instated would anyone work to eliminate them? especially those the laws are instituted to serve?
You don't like abortions, don't get one
you don't want to work, don't
you don't want an education, don't go to school
you don't want to participate in the political system, don't vote
I, however, would like the freedom to do all of those things. Just because the freedoms we maintain don't exactly fit you as an individual and those thing you abstain from are not illegal does not mean you should fight for the law to reduce our freedoms to have different beliefs and take advantage of different freedoms. Our laws need as much latitude as possible to provide as much individual liberty without infringing on others' rights. I didn't get the legal ability to wear pants in order to wear skirts all the time. Additionally, my ability to work or get an education or vote does not in any way effect your ability to choose not to. While your push to remove my abilities so the law fits into your belief system does effect my ability to choose. We as a nation need to get over the idea that the legal system will reflect each of our own personal beliefs and realize we require as much legal flexibility as possible in order to achieve personal liberty.
On a side note if you play robo-rally don't use the board with the conveyor belts leading to the pit of doom with the intersecting lasers. BIG MISTAKE (you will die).
