That is exactly right. A person should have as much freedom as possible as long as it does not interfere with another persons freedom. That is a very consistent position and there is nothing hypocritical about it.
Refusing to hire a person because he is handicapped is hindering his freedom, yet it shouldn't be that way in all circumstances. I think we all agree that a person with no legs should NOT be banned from all jobs, yet we also agree that a person with no legs should not be allowed to be a fireman. So is everyone who agrees with me that it is okay to limit a person with no legs freedom to be a fireman, but not limit his freedom in every job a hypocrite? Or are they smart enough to look at each individual situation and make their judgement based on the different circumstances?
