Reader comments about this quote:
"born free" here. would be the point of contention and conflicting definitions. Varying definitions would include extensions of "natural law" vs. "legal positivism" / etc., outcome vs. inherent existence, liberty vs. civil control, arm of flesh power vs. nature's endowment, etc.
