What do you mean "you guys"?
I don't think government gives me my rights... I believe that we the people give us our rights... It's not about government. It's about citizens.
Look at the history of all people who have fought for their freedom... Neither God, nor government had anything to do with it.
It was PEOPLE.
PEOPLE as a society give me my freedom and I in turn give them theirs.
I agree, we give ourselves these "inalienable rights". I was arguing this with 240 in another thread (who was arguing that government gives people their rights), people have fought for these ideals throughout history. In our time, they have become labeled "inalienable rights".
