   No, I meant that you will have to endure the fact that others
   will also have the freedom to do X.  It makes most sense in
   cases where X is something like "spit in people's face".

Thanks for clarifying.  I understand now (i think).

I once talked w/ someone face to face who stood very close.  He
was inadvertantly spitting in my face during the conversation.
I had to remind myself that offence is taken and perhaps not
given.  Even if the intent was to give offense (which i doubt),
i (luckily, for the topic was interesting) was able to decline.
