She asserts her independence, and doesn't need any court or group of outsiders to confirm it.

[/ QUOTE ]

but it needs to be determined if she is a moral agent or not ):

Needs to be determined by whom?

She has already determined herself to be one, and has asserted it as such.

[/ QUOTE ] Once you allow violence against someone for their own best, because you say this or that about them makes them incapable of knowing what is good for them, you open up a huge can of worms. This reasoning was used to defend slavery. And as justification for all the horrible things our ancestors did to people (like the native americans) because they weren't Christians.
