What kind of question is this? Depending on where you are in the world you have certain freedoms. Like where I am. I have freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom to come and go as I please, among many other things. And with that I have certain responsibilities. I respect others who have different opinions than I have. I respect others who wish to worship or not worship as I do. People come and go from where I live on a daily basis, whether for personal pleasure or for business. Having freedoms is a give and take relationship. I give of myself and expect others to treat me as I am and for who I am. As well I will do the same. Freedom isn't a free pass to things in life. It's a gift that many have worked hard and continue to work hard for me and many others to have. And to them I am eternally greatful. Thus I wear a poppy on 11 Nov. Remember those who have and continue to fight so that they, and many others can have freedom. Lest we forget.

Every generation there is always a challenge, its just the way the system works. Some people have to be repressed of their freedom, it's to make people think the world is progresssing. Few years ago Women couldn't vote, now they can. Few years ago Black's were slaves, now they are free.....etc. Now we have have the gay's fighting for rights when they gain their rights, we're going to have some other group or some sh*t...then it goes on and on. lol.

not to get insane ...meaning of freedom is not understood yet...that "freedom" you talking about is nothing more but restrictions....That "freedom" making you a slave of your state of being..being a slave does not represent freedom, right?You still judge what is good what is not, what is right what is wrong...Serving duality.External appearances...Servant is a meaning of imprisonment of any kind....and we are serving meanings which we created ourselves, instead make a good meanings our servants....
Freedom to accept everything without judgment is last step to experience freedom which is promised ....only can be experienced , not defined.Freedom is state of Mind for us,not state of being....To make you more confused it is Being, not state.In order to obtain freedom you should transform yourself from what you think you are into Being....and Being cannot be defined, for any definition of Being turning an Infinity into framed and imperfect definition. In another word, Infinity becomes finite...Defined it creates belief and it had been said that which you believe so be it....that how we lost knowledge of our origin, pretending that we are something else....

The challenge is to know how to use your freedoms responsibly, and not to abuse them. Sometimes, freedoms can best be maintained be relinquishing them TEMPORARILY in times of national crisis. Knowing enough to give a few inches of freedom now, when you can preserve a mile of freedom tomorrow, is , or ought to be part of the deal.
Do not take your freedoms for granted. Be ready to fight for them. Many did ....and died.

Total freedom = total responsibility.

for me the very challenge of freedom is being able to do what you want to do and facing every aftermath of what you chose to do. RESPONSIBILITY that's the real challenge of that

The biggest challenge is dealing with those who abuse this freedom.

The barriers are, sex discriminiation and racist discrimination, which governments legislate to stop some of your freedom.
