Right Glenn, and I would like to see your view come to pass. However, what we want and what is, as you noted, not likely to come to pass.

Quote:
That is correct, except that anything that is allowed or prohibited by law is not a right, because I can change the law. Florida recently did so with respect to this imagined property right in employers' parking lots.
Then by that definition, we have no rights because all rights are subject to change and to modification by the law. Just because the Bill of Rights has not itself been amended does not mean that it can't be amended as other amendments have been changed. Funny how that works.

That is why I didn't want to go this route in arguing what is and what is not a "right." That which we are proclaiming as a right is subject to modification by law and is defined, ironically, by legislation.
