What every law-abiding citizen deserves world-wide - Human rights The right to life Freedom of expression Freedom from oppression Political and religious freedom To live in a democracy The right to protection The right to a safe home, food and water The right to a fair trial The right to an education (use it better than me) Simple! The question is how we go about protecting and enforcing human rights?

There is people who kill for fun... just like those three guys in Ukraine who killed 21 people with hammer & screwdriver (in 2007) and filmed those murders. Before that they killed cats for practise... all their victims were people who could not defend themselfs.

Human rights for those guys? c'mon.

@ImEuanAndIGotsSkeelz the government that has the power to give you everything, has the power to take it all away again, you really dont want to start relying on them.

a right doesnt impose an obligation on anyone else to provide that right, thats a privalege, if a right exists regardless of whatever, wouldnt food and water appear for you on a desert island, because those are a natural right? no, negative liberty is what should be recognised, ie the liberty to do whatever you want to do as long as you dont harm anyone else, you can proclaim it a right to have water, with the best of intentions, but funny how these always lead to bad things

What we really need to be considering is URBAN rights, how the privilege structure works in modern society.

Much has already been done on this subject, especially in the UK. We're now in reverse I believe, we've been reducing rights & privileges for the past 3 decades for the average citizen, although we've made good headway on rights and a culture of respect for ethnic minorities etc.

Human rights doesn't mean shit to me anymore. Governments around the world are slowly taking away our rights, this includes here in the western world. It's happening because we're letting it happen. Most people don't care about their rights. Quite frankly, those people don't deserve their rights. I hope that my country (Canada) falls under an authoritarian government because it won't be until then people will realize how valuable their rights are.

HUman rights are a joke. They are not universal. Everytime a war is fought the "human rights" shit is thrown in the trash.
