Depending on which state your in, determines your individual freedoms.
In Michigan:
I can light up a joint on my porch and wave to the passing cop car.
I cannot legally operate an unlicensed vehicle on city streets.
I cannot launch my own aircraft.
I cannot turn Right on Red.
I'm fairly certain that you do not have the freedumb to cook meth in your kitchen.
I will concede the "I can do whatever I want; once." argument. Kind of like how I could go outside and fire off a few rounds into the air. Sure, I CAN do it, but it's illegal for me to do so for public safety reasons.
Also, you cannot strike a member of Congress regardless of the state.
You absolutely can turn right on red in Michigan unless a sign prohibits it.
You may be right about some of that but I'm downvoting you for saying "freedumb" because I hate that dumb malapropism.
Freedom is never dumb. Dumb is being against freedom.
