We only have Rights and Freedoms because of Government.

[aGameOfThrones]

Come on stop saying all americans put their life on the line everyday in fact probably 90% dont. We only have rights and freedoms because of our Govt. Think about that and stop being on of those annoying hippies who think you have 100% and rights. If we did noone would be safe. ~flute1234


BTW, the OP is from Canada... if that makes any difference. This is the thinking of many in this country, too.

The Government is too busy trying to restrict your freedoms, and also trying to abolish your natural Rights to give you any.

Um, no. We have rights and freedoms.

Government is not to infringe those rights of freedoms. Government is there to protect our rights and freedoms.

We have inalienable Rights and Freedoms because we exist. We created government from the power of its people. A government of the people, by the people, and for the people. It is governments responsiblity to respect and protect those freedoms. And they are not doing a bang up job.
