There are many more accidents involving automobiles, airplanes, bathroom shower stalls and backyard swimming pools, however. And let's not forget that freedom is risky business. Freedom allows people to make mistakes recognizing that the alternative is worse. A local newspaper columnist recently said that other nations are free without possessing firearms. He fails to see the obvious fact that people who are not free to own firearms are not free.
Many people live their entire lives and never know a day of real freedom.
And, while I'm sure that there are those who would choose to live without freedom, there are some of us who would rather die free than live enslaved. Copyright 2000 Collective Computer Solutions, inc. All rights reserved.
