Governments don't have rights, Linda... governments have powers. Clearly defined by the Constitution.

That's correct. Rights are extant. They existed before man. We have a right to speak, to associate, and to defend ourselves.

This flimsy use of the word "rights" is becoming tiresome. They truly have no idea what it means and are bastardizing the very root and spirit of the word.
