    Absolute nonsense!

    Without OTHERS upholding YOUR rights you have NONE!

    That is the whole CONCEPT of HOW rights WORK in REALITY.

    It was your MOTHER who upheld your right to life.

    It was your PARENTS who upheld your right to have a place to live as you grew up.

    It was COMMUNITY that upheld your right to an EDUCATION.

    It IS the government of We the People that upholds your right to vote, speak, believe, own a gun, etc, etc, etc.

    Facts matter!

    If my parents or community or govt. did not uphold my rights, they would still be mine.

    Facts do indeed matter.

    Why are you so mad?

    Putting aside your PUERILE ad hom WITHOUT those others who UPHELD your rights you would NOT have had any at all.

    This is a very basic concept and it is taught in Civics 101.

    Rights come with LIMITATIONS and RESPONSIBILITIES.

    Your rights END where my rights BEGIN.

    Do you have a right to incarcerate me without due process?

    Yes or no?

    If your answer is yes then you need to further your own subject matter knowledge.

    If your answer is no then that is the explanation you requested.

    Sorry you are uneducated regarding our basic history of political philosophy of the Enlightenment. I'm not going to spell it out for you. You have to be hungry enough to find out for yourself.

    Dems want to eliminate God from our discourse because they think they are the gods.

    Then why do they mention God in their speeches? Very strange.

    Mary Ann Mendoza pulled from RNC lineup after retweeting anti-Semitic QAnon conspiracy
    Mendoza was scheduled to appear Tuesday night in a video message.

    A speaker scheduled to appear on the second night of the Republican National Convention was pulled from the lineup hours after she promoted an anti-Semitic QAnon conspiracy theory on Twitter.

    Mary Ann Mendoza was scheduled to appear about an hour into the convention Tuesday night in a video message, one of several women voicing their support for President Donald Trump.

    Trump campaign communications director Tim Murtaugh confirmed that Mendoza was dropped. "We have removed the scheduled video from the convention lineup and it will no longer run this week," he said in a statement to ABC News.

    ... https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/mary-ann-mendoza-pulled-rnc-lineup-retweeting-anti/story?id=72607904​

    It figures. What woman in her right mind would support the P-grabber who separates families and locks kids in cages, obviously causing lasting harm to them, in order to scare asylum-seekers and impress angry white deplorables?

    I started watching it on c-span, not the local affiliate c-span, but the national one which seemed not to interrupt the actual event, at least not when I was watching it.

    More likely you're just wrong.

    What does it matter, if they still struck it from the 1954 version? Why strike it at all?

    Your porkie-pie about Democrats and God.

    By the way, it's funny how well your previous comment applies to the Trumpublican Party, whose god is Trump.

    It's called the Enlightenment. Look it up.

    Not going to watch. Looks like something ancient and irrelevant.
