Blog #6: Working Definitions

Definition by Negaition: I sometimes ask myself what is freedom, and i tell me self that it is your right to say  or act the way you want  with out having any penalies but it cant mean that because you are not able to kill someone with out knowning that you dont have the freedom, yet the courts have the right to give a criminal the sentence of death.

Defintion by Compare and Contrast: We all know freedom up to a certain point, but we do not know thw ultimate freedom which would allow us to do as we please. why because it would cause caous everywhere and with everyone.

Definition by History:  We are supposed to have  freedom of speech which lets you speak your mind openly with opression but in china people have the Article 35 of the Chinese Constituation. However criminal acts are sometimes applied towards people who ridcule the chinese goverment. In addition of the use of intimidation the chinese goverment use the Goverment Cencoership to regulate what can be said in magizines, newspaper etc.

Definition by Example: I have the freedom to go out and buy anything i want, unless it is illegal or against a certain rule or law.
