False. Any 'right' has limits when it interferes with another individual's 'right', so we enact laws to demonstrate where those limits are. If individual freedom was an absolute right, the only law would be the law of the jungle.

True if you are in the United States of America, but i am not sure about foreign countries.

Answer:

Let's define the terms first.

Absolute Right: A definition of terms a legally enforceable right to take some action or to refrain from acting at the sole discretion of the person having the right

Individual Freedom: An individual's control of:

  • His self-reliance, on privacy, and on mutual respect.
  • A property system according to which each person or family enjoys the maximum of opportunity to acquire property and to manage and dispose of it as he or they see fit.

If this right were fully realized a person could (as example):

  • Walk naked in the streets
  • Manufacture and use drug for his own use or sell to friends
  • Print his own money
  • Slaughter animals in his apartment
  • Walk around in crowds if infected with a contagious disease

No country allows its citizens these rights nd the rest of society would not allow them. SO individual rights are a limited freedom.

Does An individual have an absolute right to act as he or she chooses?

Of course not. You may be physically able to do what you want to do but that may get you in trouble and you may lose your freedom. Every individual's "right to act as they choose" is controlled by local, state and federal law. If an individual acts in a way that has been deemed to be not in the best interest of a civilized society, or unlawful, they will face sanctions. The prison systems are filled to the brim with people who decided to act out their own bad choices.
