liberals don't understand that when you try to force 'good' you get evil, because goodness can never be forced. and when they decide to force all good, we will have only evil...

As I quoted on another thread

"When your response to everything that is wrong with the world is to say, 'there ought to be a law,' you are saying that you hold freedom very cheap."

- Thomas Sowell

"It is indeed probable that more harm and misery have been caused by men determined to use coercion to stamp out a moral evil than by men intent on doing evil."

-- F.A. Hayek

"A free man must be able to endure it when his fellow men act and live otherwise than he considers proper. He must free himself from the habit, just as soon as something does not please him, of calling for the police."

- Ludwig von Mises
