Well, the same argument is being used to say what you can and can't do to your body... I'd rather have more accidents than less freedom

Life is never guaranteed. Giving up your freedom makes you feel safer, it doesn't actually make people safer

I don't disagree with you, but at that same note - you should have enough information to know what human beings have done with unchecked freedom.

Ultimately we are all free. We are free to make whatever choices we want, and free to accept the consequences (whether we accept them at the time of the choice or not). Unchecked freedom in the hands of human beings (we have fused atoms) would rip through reality like a fresh razor through paper.
