as you should, really.

Anything can be used as a tool to do terrible things.

We are born mages. We don't have any choice in the matter, not like someone who is wielding a sword can put it down, or someone using the Chantry to preach a message of hate can cease. We are magic. Limiting us for something we cannot stop, we cannot choose, and we cannot help, is simply not right, and not acceptable.

You're a Rifter, something you cannot choose to be and something you cannot help. Should you be limited because of it? Should you be rounded up and held somewhere, as we were? Subjected to extra scrutiny and rules, to the whims of a great many people? You could be unpredictable. You could be lying about every aspect of your life and making up stories of your world and no one here would know it, you could have some ability that can be used to do really, really terrible things.

I think neither group should be limited. But you can make your case for both being limited if you care to.
