Anarchy in Your Head
Dale Everett, author of Anarchy in Your Head webcomics, has a post on his blog that underscores the importance of liberty.
Our will is what defines us as living. It’s what makes us critically different from dead inanimate objects, e.g. a rock has no will of it’s own. To the extent that you take away or restrict a person’s will and expression of self, you’re killing that person.
