Discussion - In order to 'have' ethics, however

Discussion-Free Will

In order to 'have' ethics, however, we must also have free will.  This makes sense, right?  We can't blame someone morally if, in fact, that person did not choose the action under consideration.  Or is this not the case?  What do you think?  What role does freewill play in human nature?  Do we possess free will?  Provide your best argument for or against freewill/determinism.
