Inalienable Rights

I was turned off by an article today, not because of the contents, but because of one little statement.... "Choosing where to live and how to live are basic inalienable rights."

I wholeheartedly disagree.

If I choose to live in your back yard, or under a local bridge, or in a local library; is that my inalienable right? Is it my inalienable right to marry 4 women?

This article highlighted some supreme ignorance on behalf of the author, who has severely confused our legal rights, with those rights given to us by God (nature).

The big question for me is, "why am I so upset about this?" It is such a small statement, but it really got me fired up.

Can you guess what the article was about?

  1. Was the article about mortgages?

  2. No, it was actually titled "It's a Beautiful Day in the Gayborhood". Seems like the article title would offend the gay people they supposedly support.
