Liberals also say and do stupid shit

I’m with magnet here.
Rights granted by laws are the same as rights granted by the Constitution.

And while we may have the belief that some rights are inherent, this is really just a matter of personal opinion. It doesn’t actually matter until codified by law, because rights only actually matter if you can defend them. Rights that cannot be defended don’t matter.

There are essentially two types of “rights”. One is an abstract notion, which exists only as a concept to discuss. The other is an actual thing which is enforced by realworld power, and affects our lives. The first can become the second, but it’s not a real factor until it is.

That is, our notion of what rights people should have can influence how we cause our government to behave. It can influence what the government creates as a set of rights, enforced by the power of the government. But the notion of “inherent rights” is meaningless outside of the context of that.
