I don't remember being the one to bring up the "right to happiness" until you mentioned it later, though I admit that my memory is poor.
I thought that I was just arguing that a person should be allowed to abdicate their own rights should they choose. Perhaps my example of being terminally ill and in constant agony seemed an inference to the right to happiness (as I certainly wouldn't be happy in such a situation) being used to bend the right to life?

- Failure to own a gun, execution
- Failure to tell a cop to shove it up his a$$ when asked to submit to a search without probable cause, no less than 4 years in a federal penitentary and no greater than 10 years
- Deciding a jury is not needed in a civil trial where monetary value is in excess of $20, summary siezure of all liquidatable assets and 1 year in prison, misdemeanor
