Yes. She has long defended that view.

"We have a document that grants certain rights, relatively completely, in a rational way."

But she is wrong. Documents don't 'grant' rights. We are born noble human beings, which makes it right to think, speak, and conduct ourselves with regard to the well being of all creatures and creation. We compose documents to declare those self-evident truths and we establish laws to protect what is right.

Violations are by choice and with disregard to these self evident truths. So we must compose laws protecting our rights in a civilized society, not to grant what is right but to protect what is right. We do this to protect ourselves against persons who deny their own noble state of birth and who would violate the natural rights of others. We stand up in word and in deed in opposition to such self hating destroyers as the need arises, because that too is right.
