You have no rights
#13
RE: You have no rights
And you, in my opinion, fail to understand that if a "right" is granted (and they all are) it cannot be a right ... if it relies on it being granted (and they all do) then some people may not (almost certainly do not) possess them therefore they cannot be a right.

IOW I believe in responsibilities that create a "rights" but not rights (the quotes meaning they're not actually real in the sense that people tend to perceive rights). There's a huge difference between individuals possessing rights and society granting them ... in essence I suppose it means that an individual can never possess a "right" or rather never has a "right" as an attribute.
