When discussing the philosophy of freedom, most areas are clear cut and easy to understand. However there are some areas which might sound a bit fuzzy and unclear.
Freedom by its very nature is so intertwined with ownership. This can be defined. A thing can be owned, if it has a boundary, under the control of the owner, and can be destroyed.
This writing is not about the wisdom or non-wisdom of destruction, I simply state one criteria of ownership is whether or not the so-called owner of a thing, is within his rights to destroy. And if he cannot destroy without permission from another, he in fact does not own. Ownership of property is a total concept, and ones right to destroy is a part of that total concept.
