Re: My questions after 2005

Just a small point I want to make. You guys say we aren't "legally" at war, but if we are not legally at war, then we would be illegaly or allegaly (is this a word?) at war. Since the United States...

Re: Civil War arguments

So then, MMMMMM, if you had a really beautiful girlfriend, that I know in my heart you would not like to be dispossessed of, would I be violating your rights if she fell in love with me and we go to...

Re: Civil War arguments

Let me start off by saying that I think it is a ridiculous notion that a person has rights, but people don't. But it's okay, I love a challenge.

According to you, governments have no rights. ...

No. Government *REQUIRES* the use of (unprovoked) force.

Re: Civil War arguments

The Union is not one person, it is many people. Are you saying they didn't have rights because they were a group rather than one person?

The acceptable use of force is in defense of one's property (life, autonomy, possesions).

Re: Civil War arguments

Anybody can exert force without being coerced into doing so.
So by your definition, is killing a right?

If it is not, can't any act of force be declared a right because of self-defense,...

If rights are not synonymous with abilities, then what ARE they? You may not use a protractor to answer this question.

Re: Civil War arguments

I don't think the Civil War was about ending slavery, it was about saving the union. You're framing the question in such a way so that no answer can satisfy you. If instead of 600,000 deaths, there...

Re: NYC transit strike

The city must have thought that because there are laws against striking in New York, that they can exploit the workers forever without any consequences.
