[Vision2020] Alive at 25 (Sept 29, 2013)

People die from skiing, from driving, from walking, from living. Should we
resist those activities? Here is my view. Let people do whatever they want
as long as it doesn't interfere with others. Sure there are costs but not
nearly as much as the costs of our high cost prison system. Some wish that
they could believe in a nice white guy in the sky that will give them life
ever after if only they choose to believe. Others cannot buy that because
it sounds to them like a bunch of crap. (I'm still on the fence.) Life is
hard and the fear of death causes folks to avoid thinking about it in all
kinds of ways, sometimes (ironically) to the extent in which their
indulgences make them that much closer too it. Arrest folks who drive
drunk, high, whatever -- whenever their actions place risk upon the lives
and interests of others -- but stop judging people and just let them live
their own lives the best they can.

By the way, you are officially NO libertarian in my book, Scott.
