The Nature of Rights in U.S. Political Discourse

The rights that we have as human beings, which we consider, in America, to be given by G-d, and unalienable, are a part of our core belief as Americans. This is it, that a RIGHT is not given by humans, nor by their institutions, and consequently SHOULD not be taken, and can, in fact, ONLY be taken by force or given voluntarily by the individual. This idea is what we pledge to hold fast to, and this is WHY WE FIGHT.

This concept is being greatly diminished and even rejected by far too many Americans. To many GOOD Americans. To many good Americans with to many good INTENTIONS. Intentions that lead to a path of tyranny and defeat. TYRANNY over the individual and DEFEAT of the DREAM that has been America.

If you choose to give up on this idea of a right and the value of the individual, that is your RIGHT. But realize this, it is you giving up part of the American DREAM. When you decide to give up your right to yourself as an individual, and capitulate to a “higher” moral collectivist belief, do not then believe that I have to give up my rights. They will have to be forcibly taken.

Do not MISDEFINE a right to mean that something or some service should be available to everyone, because it is so great or so good. Do not say to an INDIVIDUAL that they MUST willingly serve someone else, without realizing that you are forcibly removing someone’s ACTUAL RIGHT to refuse their service. And please, do not feel superior because you are using a human institution and calling it altruism.

If you CHOOSE to believe it is morally superior to subvert an individuals right for a perceived greater good, then do not HIDE behind words, by trying to REDEFINE what is a right. Do not try to placate those which are susceptible to emotional manipulation by saying that because an idea might be “GOOD” for many, that the idea is a right. Do not try to tell us that putting aside the individual, is GOOD.

If you want to know how wide our divide in political discourse really is, much of it can be summed up this way. American Conservatism wishes to conserve THIS founding principle of America, of unalienable rights. The LEFT wants to carve it out, ultimately denying the individual their rights. In other words, “The needs of the many outweigh the needs [rights] of the few.”

2nd Amendment

A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

It’s sad that all these people marching today in #marchforourlives, don’t realize—or they don’t care—that they are marching against one of the main fundamentals upon which our great nation was founded—the recognized natural right to self defense and self determination. It’s not actually about guns. Guns are merely necessary tools to secure those fundamentals against evil individuals, groups, and overreaching/tyrannical governments.

Wireless(?) Charging or Not…

I hate it when marketing or technology gurus call inductive charging, “wireless” charging. It’s like calling a dock station, which has a wired Ethernet, wireless networking. Or for that matter, wireless charging (get it, no actual wires plug into the computer). I understand that a dock station is not inductive, but it still has the EXACT LIMITATIONS. I also understand that inductive charging is technically a “wireless” standard (no wires from the device touch the base station), but using that term is misleading to the public. What happens when we actually get truly wireless charging technology? Are we going to call it “Real Wireless Charging”?

CBS All Access FAIL

C’mon CBS!! All Access does offer a tremendous service. But seriously…take a hint from Netflix and now the new “commercial free” Hulu! We don’t want to pay for a service AND watch commercials through the middle of the show!! REALLY?!? WTF?? Glad you at least gave me a one-month free trial. Fortunately, I only had to go through about five minutes of one episode before four commercials ceased my interest in using your service. 

U.S. Constitution

There is a common misconception that is often hard for people to detect or understand, and how it fundamentally affects ones political worldview.

The constitution (specifically the Bill of Rights) doesn’t GIVE it’s citizens rights. It was setup to PROTECT our individual God-given rights as human beings against a tyrannical, hungry, and oft-overreaching federal government.

What is a “Right”?

I think that there is a lot of confusion over what it means to have a “right” to something. This basic principle shapes ones basic political views and dogma. The basic concept I adhere to is that a right 1. cannot be taken away, and 2. cannot inherently infringe

Constitutional Rights

The United States constitution doesn’t give Americans rights to protect us from other Americans, it’s there to protect us from our Government. Our Founding Fathers knew that over time the Government would became the new tyranny. Be more afraid of your government and the liberties that it seizes than of any other person or force. For us to remain a free people, we must maintain ALL of our freedoms from government tyranny and oppression.

What Is Your Problem?

Those who question the validity and quality of the U.S. Constitution and wish to make changes to it outside the procedure and mandate of said constitution (through amendments, etc) are free to choose another location in which to live. This OWS crowd is starting to torque me off. Just a bunch of sadistic little imbeciles who want free stuff and think that if the government had more control over private enterprise we would all be better off. That’s a bunch of bullocks and anyone with any sense would see right through it! They do not SPEAK for the 99% and probably not even the bottom 10%!!! They need to go back to whatever hole they crawled out of and leave us alone!
