Freedom is to be able to do what you want, there fore there is no safety with freedom, safety needs restrictions, with restrictions in place, you cant be free. Therefore there can be no balance between the two, it is one or the other. If noone is free to murder then noone is truly free, you can even call it being free as it directly contradicts the definition.
For example, If there is a law that says you cannot murder, then you are not free, because there is something you cant do

No one needs the freedom to murder or rape. But saftey is also something people, especially children deserve. I think the key is a good balance. Rules to keep you safe. If theres anything i've learned this past 4th of july, it's that regardless of the different opinions everyone has. We all share one thing in common. We live in the greatest country on earth and we're damn proud of it. If everything was perfect there'd be no point to our lives. To live is to improve and provide. To progress.

As I said, Rules=Not freedom.
America is the greatest depending on how you look at it, no offense, america could also be classified as the dumbest country depending on what you are rating it as, overall it isnt
Nothing is perfect or ever will be, in many areas america is unwise, no offense as i said before.
Actually I can say america is unwise, its citizens are unwise and therefore force the government to make unwise decisions

I see what you mean. Is it really not possible to be free to do some things and not free to do others. I dont think we have to think of freedom as 100% doing everything we want. Or never doing anything at all.

This is a copy and paste
"You know im surprised women at all want this, since men are generally stronger, a world with only freedom would mean much more rape, and noone would be safe then, people would be dying, people would be raped, and then the women would feel the worst pain from it, because of the rape, and then they wouldnt be able to do anything about it since as i said, its a world with no laws and men are generally stronger, more likely to keep guns and the such, civil war would ensue. You see men are stupid, if a lot of women say this is good, men will too, to increase their chance of being liked or accepted, so if all women stop, all men will follow, or about 99% because some people with a very low chance of getting a partner would want a free world out of sheer stupidity.
Im not being sexist or blaming women, im just saying, when you stop, everyone stops.
I cant prove this 100%, but it is literally in our genes to want to be accepted and loved by you, and men would do stupid things for you, and this is stupid"

But then that would be redefining the definition of free as it is
~not under the control or in the power of another; able to act or be done as one wishes.~
Meaning that if there is law, there is no freedom, you can be free to do some things and not free to do others. But that does not make you free.
I see countless times on places like social media and sometimes on the news people wanting to be "free" to practically do as they wish without restricitions, and expect to be safe after being granted that.
If I somehow could control america in the position of the president, I would make a speech, teling them that for two hours they will be granted the freedom they so much desire, Then I would explain to them that one new law that I created will stand above all others, in which people can do whatever they please. Then after those two hours are over, I will make another speech, asking them if that is what they want, if they want to live in a world where everyone if fairly free to do what they want.
Some people don't learn when you explain it, so they have to realize the pain of their decisions

Conservatives want safety from ideas and freedom for their actions.

Liberals want freedom of their ideas and safety from others actions.

But not them alone, society, mainly society in the americas want to be able to do whatever they want,
aka freedom and be safe.
What they actually want is for them ALONE to do whatever they want, without having to worry about the reality that they are not in control, they just don say it because that would sound selfish, so the closest thing to that would be freedom for everyone. Humans like to be in control, you like to control everything so it is exactly how you want it, and this is everyone im talking about, it reminds me of my favorite quote

And that quote is actually true, when you know your limits and what you can and can do, and what you can control and what you cant, you will be much happier because you know, that because you can control other people doesn make you weak, you couldnt do it at all either way

If there are laws, there is no freedom, if there is something that tells you what to do or what to not do, there is no freedom.
