It's called freedom.

It is human nature to be selfish.  That doesn't make it ok.  It just means that it happens to the best of us.  Hard truth: the only freedom we truly value is our own.

We want freedom of speech but only if it's speech we agree with.  For example, the US Supreme Court (socialist bastards) just passed a law prohibiting people from protesting their rulings on court grounds. This denies people the opportunity to make their opinions heard.  The Texas legislature (more socialist bastards) recently banned protestors of the abortion ban from speaking in the capital in order to silence their critics.  The bill will pass but only because it is no longer able to be contested.

Which brings me to my next item.  We want people to have the freedom to choose their own healthcare (which is why we hate Obamacare) but only if the healthcare decisions being made are ones we approve of (which is why we want to ban abortion, why we require children be vaccinated by law or why we forbid assisted suicide).  It offends us to be told what we can and can't do with our bodies, but we feel well within our rights to tell someone else what to do with theirs.

There's more.  We want the freedom to marry who we love but only if that person is of the opposite sex.  We want the right to practice whatever religion we choose but only if everyone else practices the same one we do.  We want the right to vote but we actively seek ways to remove the voting power of people who don't vote for the same party we do.  The list goes on an on.

We like to say we're all for freedom but we are all big fat liars.  We are selfish.  It's sad, but it is true.  You can't have freedom unless everyone is included.  Otherwise you have oppression, hate and chaos.  You have to be willing to give freedom to everyone if you truly want to be free.

If you value freedom, let gay people get married.  Let women choose for themselves whether or not they become mothers.  No more religious wars.  Chillax, Sweeties.  It's called freedom.
