Yes they should
It's called Democracy
The people rule
Hunter please name a right
There are none @Burly Bong
So rape can be legal under some circumstances
We shouldn't just have rules that the people can never change under any circumstances
No such thing as a right
Yes there is lmao
That's retarded hunter
Even the US constitution allows amendments
It is an absurd system to just have rules that no one can ever change
A right is just a majority agreed priviledge that should always be upheld
Just because people take your rights away doesn’t make them not a right
Yes it does
If there was no government, free speech would exist, so that’s a natural right
Rights are a completely fictions invention by us
We made them and we can take them away
If there was no government, free healthcare wouldn’t exist so that’s not a right
See what I mean
We currently extend a right to free speech for instance but if enough people voted for a party that opposed free speech then free speech would no longer be a right because the people voted to get rid of it
We already don’t have free speech
> rights n. 1) plural of right, which is the collection of entitlements which a person may have and which are protected by the government and the courts, or under an agreement.
Something which can be broken and taken away.
Thus it is a privilege.
You have the privilege to bear arms.
No actually read it
The privilege to free speech.
Rights are protected by the government , not given
actually read it ffs
> person may have and which are protected by the government and the courts, or under an agreement
Then when the government stops 'protecting' it?
When the government says that's no longer true?
Then it’s an authoritarian government
A right is a freedom we agree people should have, If people no longer agree that people should have that freedom then it ceases to be a right
Then it’s revolution time
Then it's not a right.

Then it's a privilege.
Good lord.
How is it in anyway authoritarian to grant the people more power over their laws?
Because muh burka of course
