This conversation is above your level.

You can pretend it is not.

Recognized rights have a tendency to stop bullets in the long run, but your interpretation of what I said was backwards. A right is a right whether someone or some government tries to legislate it away from you or through force (the point of a gun) causes you to violate one of your rights. But that violation only continues under the force of the gun.

Example: taxation of personal income. It is a violation of individual and property rights, but most Americans pay anyway under the force of a gun.
