Constitutional right? Since when do illegal aliens have constitutional rights? Maybe POW status under the Geneva convention, but no, they have no rights in the country that they invaded.

Does the government give you rights, or do we force the government to recognize the natural rights of all humans?

It’s a particularly tricky question, because it makes people question really basic philosophies.

So does an illegal have constitutional rights? I don’t think they do. I do think they have natural rights as humans no matter which country of origin they come from, and that we make our government recognize those natural rights.

And since one of the most critical natural rights is the right to live, I’ve always had a problem with the government stating that you have a right to kill a baby.

As that’s a ‘government granted’ right, just like homosexuals calling themselves married, you’ll understand if I don’t particularly care to see either of them exercised or bantered about in the same manner as natural rights are.

She has a right to due process before the law, she has a right to be deported, and the baby has a right to live.
