It's 2014, and the fact that anybody has to fight for the right to do what they want to do with their body in a safe and responsible way is infuriating.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
2014 was a year of intense social upheaval. In truth, the same could be said for most every year. There is no standstill in a world filled with so many people, scrambling for so much.
Under the worst conditions, horrendous conditions, people still, you know, fight for their rights and don't just succumb.
In any human-rights campaign, everybody must do what they can.
From the beginning of our history the country has been afflicted with compromise. It is by compromise that human rights have been abandoned.
For decades in America, there has been an effort to ensure that the rights of those who are not sane are the same as the rights of those who are.
We're losing our way as a society. If we don't stand up, if we don't say what we think those rights should be, and if we don't protect them, we will very soon find out that we do not have them.
I think this society suffers so much from too much freedom, too many rights that allow people to be irresponsible.
Whether we are talking about access to affordable birth control, feeling safe from violence in our homes, or being able to earn the same amount of money as our male counterparts, these are rights that all people deserve, and they are being threatened.
The right and the physical power of the people to resist injustice, are really the only securities that any people ever can have for their liberties. Practically no government knows any limit to its power but the endurance of the people.
Potentially, a government is the most dangerous threat to man's rights: it holds a legal monopoly on the use of physical force against legally disarmed victims.
