By default you should have certain rights, but it is possible to take some actions that deem you unworthy of the right to life. We are social creatures. If an individual is completely incapable of working within a group, that person must be removed. Permanently if necessary.
It's a legitimate position if you prefer but you don't support human rights then, if you read trough the whole concept and substance you'll notice they have certain characteristics, such as inalienability... The same applies to fundamental rights on a national scale... Either everyone has them or not, you can't just create a special category of people and say 'these people can't have rights A and B'. At most you could incapacitate someone temporarily from having a right.
