43. One person's common sense laws...
One person's common sense laws are another person's intrusive, insane abridgment of freedoms. The lines to be drawn are re-examined and re-drawn every day in ways that will accommodate some and disenfranchise others.

When a person says enough is enough, he's speaking from his own experience and world-view which is vastly different than the person next to him. It begs the question-- who is absolutely right on defining "enough"?
