None of us like being told what to do. We want to do what we want, when we want, with whom we want. As long as nobody gets hurt we think we should be allowed to what we want, when we want, with whom we want. But there's a problem with this. Listen to this talk and you'll hear a very strange and twisted story of what happens when people do what is right in their own eyes.
