According to some around here, we only have privileges. Misinformed bunch

[mcurrier]

From whom do these "privileges" derive?  Government?  God forbid!  Any entity that has the authority to grant you privileges then has the authority to take them away.

 

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are..."

 

"...shall NOT be infringed..."

The problem is that they do not believe there is a creator unless it's convenient. Heck! Some people on this very forum think that way.

Sure do. Bring up religion in a topic and it almost immediately destroys it. Oops! I guess I shouldn't have said that. :D

When the government regulates your rights, you only have priviledges. Pretty simple to me.

How about rightist idiots?

 

- The great conservative God Ronald Regan is pretty much responsible for Kali's restrictive gun laws. He even wanted to ban handguns entirely and license long guns for hunting only. Of course was 100% behind Brady Act also.

 

- Dubya was for extending the 94 AWB and for universal back ground checks.

 

(just a couple of examples off the top of my head)

We have Rights.

 

Perhaps that's why the left's get so pissed... ;)
