The rights of some must not be enjoyed by denying the rights of others. Neither can we permit states' rights at the expense of human rights.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The thing about rights is that in the end you can't prove what should be considered a right.
Even though we may focus first on the rights of our own country, that does not mean that we should disregard the rights of everyone else.
We can never protect the rights by only thinking about our rights. By performing the universal responsibility with a compassionate mind, you can protect your own right and that of others.
Therefore, states are equal in natural rights.
If you want my opinion, I say that this is a state based on occupation, that has usurped the rights of others.
What we don't have a right to is healthcare, housing, or handouts. We don't have those rights.
We throw to the winds the old dogma that governments can give rights. Before governments were organized, no one denies that each individual possessed the right to protect his own life, liberty and property.
They don't have special rights because we have civil rights laws that protect them. The laws work both ways.
The exercise of natural rights has no limits but such as will ensure their enjoyment to other members of society.
Communities don't have rights. Only individuals in the community have rights.
