All actions have consequences. Choice does not include harm or death to others, even under the guise of 'freedom'. It's an ethical ideal designed to keep our inner 'killer ape' at bay, and our human dignity in tact.

"Dignity, it seems to me, demands freedom above all - but not at the expense of helpless others."
