We have the rights society gives us. Nothing more, nothing less. I don't believe in natural rights. So if society decided that you had no rights it would not only be legal but ok to kill you? Or to look at it another way if a pro-life constitutional amendment was passed giving rights to fetuses you would not have a problem with that because now fetuses would have rights as they would have been granted them by society? Did Pol Pot, Stalin, Mao, Hitler and others of their ilk not violate anyone's rights because the society that they controled didn't give rights to the victims? Tim
