George Carlin said it, and it's true. Rights don't exist. We've gotten to the level where things that used to seem protected are now violated, and pointing to the laws that say they are rights doesn't do anything. Once checks and balances disappeared, the ones in control could do whatever they want, especially when everyone else is still trying to use the rules that aren't being acknowledged or enforced to "fight" back.
