You believe that individuals should be free to exercise their inherent rights to life, liberty, and property without undue interference from the government or others.
The "Natural Rights" political ideology is a philosophical concept that asserts that certain rights are inherent by virtue of human nature, endowed by nature, God, or a transcendent source, and that these can be understood universally through human reason. These rights are often viewed as being fundamental to human existence, such as the right to life, liberty, and property.
The concept of natural rights originated during the Enlightenment period, a time of significant intellectual growth and societal change in the 17th and 18th centuries. The idea was heavily influenced…

If freedom of speech is a natural right, where, if at all, should lines be drawn, and who should draw them?
@FitzGibbonRepublican4mos4MO
There shouldn't be a line. Freedom of speech is what it is. Now when people act on these hate words through action then it should be dealt with.
This one question stirs so many people up. You can't punish someone for beliefs or creed. It will trickle down to a who said she said match at the end of everything.
Actions speak louder then words cause they can cause physical harm. This is a questions that intice to cause division among Americans to keep us off the bigger problems America is facing today. It effects less then 1% of Americans. Yet it is an everyday issue on are media outlets cause it attracts attention. Let's attack housing cost and Rent. Unregulate the market so we can create more condo and townhouses. Prevent big corporations from buying swath of real estate all because a few years ago interest rates won't ever be that low again.

If it gets violent and people get hurt that is where they should draw the line. I think law enforcement should draw them.
@9JDF6D24mos4MO
because if it gets violent then that's stretching your rights too far its only freedom of speech not freedom of violent.
@9JB6RVP 4mos4MO
The freedom of speech is a right everyone has and lines should not be drawn.
@9JB6LK74mos4MO
If the speech leads to danger or harm of the people of this country DIRECTLY, then yes there should be consequences, lawsuits, and a restriction of freedom of speech. Also, in private businesses where it is a private estate, there should be limits considering the constitution and these amendments is more about the federal government's powers and restrictions, rather than the people's restrictions. Also, if it's a private estate, then the people who violate the terms and services of the PRIVATE estate should face allegations and potential lawsuits for their actions.

If you were to witness a rights violation in public, what would compel you to act, and how?
@9KTYJY42mos2MO
Another human being getting violated would compel me to act, I would try to prevent it.
I would be compelled to act because it would be taking away the rights of others who deserve those rights.
@9KTYDXL2mos2MO
I wouldn't know what to do, I'd probably record and report and maybe say something depending on the situation.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How would you prioritize which 'natural rights' to defend if you couldn't choose them all?
@9L5Y3VY1mo1MO
I would defend the 2nd and use it to protect all other rights
@9L5YR2F1mo1MO
I would chose life because the individual and collective rights of self-defense and self-determination
@9L5Y6NY1mo1MO
I think that the natural right to practice any religion, have a family, and make a living should be prioritized.
@9L5Y63B1mo1MO
Natural rights need defended to the point except if someone becomes a sex offender
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Why do you think it is crucial, or not, to fight for the rights of people you've never met?
@9JF29JPLibertarian4mos4MO
I belive the UN has a very good idea of what exactly human rights are. But they are terrible at enforcing them especially in the middle east.
The UN is generally a very loose organization, that sees itself as this great enforcer of justice and human rights. But the US and the greedy European countries contribute to it's failures, since it rarely gets authorized to move in. And if it does, it barely does a change. Simply because the US and European country's political interests are the main motivator, and not the protection of human lives.
@9CJ6CB63mos3MO
Well that’s mostly because it’s not strong and independent, it’s not a fully global body either. It’s “military” is built off of volunteers, and they’re poorly trained or unruly at best.
@9JJNQ9BRepublican3mos3MO
I'm not sure about the UN but everyone should get the rights we have all agreed to have regardless of who they are or what they've done.
because everyone deserves the name natural rights. it is things you deserve for being brought into this world.
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How does the idea that some rights are 'natural' affect the way you think about new issues, like climate change or internet privacy?
@9K8Z7NB2mos2MO
In newer times, we are slowly having our rights taken. So fighting for your rights and voting the right person is crucial
@9KGSYCSIndependent2mos2MO
Artificial Intelligence takes control of human intellect and originality and needs to be regulated.
@9KBCS5X2mos2MO
The concept of natural rights can shape perspectives on new issues like climate change or internet privacy, influencing whether individuals prioritize certain rights regardless of circumstances.
@9K8ZHZX2mos2MO
If rights are natural then we should care for our natural environment.
@9K8ZGVZ2mos2MO
I think about God given rights. I think that climate change doesn't really have an impact however internet privacy does.
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Do you believe you have rights that no government should be able to take from you; what are they?
Yes, the persuit of happiness, freedom of speech, and freedom of religion.
@9H5GJPV6mos6MO
Yeah the right to voice my own opinion and pick who I want leading me.
@9H5G9RHRepublican6mos6MO
The rights are slowly being stripped from the American People.
@9H5FVP76mos6MO
Yes there are certain rights that are not supposed to be taken from us such as freedom of speech and freedom of religion. Also the freedom of press, assembly, and privacy.
@ISIDEWITH4mos4MO
Why do you think some communities or groups might interpret natural rights differently?
Differences in cultures, environments and upbringings
@9HVN6GMWomen’s Equality4mos4MO
can identify the fundamental liberties that all human beings require to pursue happiness while living in close proximity to others
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
If you could start a movement to better protect a certain right, which right would it be and what would be your first step?
@ISIDEWITH6mos6MO
Should everyone around the world have the same natural rights, or are some rights specific to certain cultures or societies?
@ISIDEWITH2mos2MO
How do you feel when you see natural rights being violated in the news, and do you react?
@9KN3T2KWomen’s Equality2mos2MO
It makes me sad , because no one should have their natural rights violated its unnecessary an unfair
@9KN3SKR2mos2MO
I disagree with it I don't believe that "Natural Rights" should be violated because that is something that is state in our constitution as Americans.
@ISIDEWITH5mos5MO
@ISIDEWITH1mo1MO
How do you address conflicts between your rights and the needs of the environment?
@9LHV4RR4wks4W
We need to find a healthy balance and better alternatives.
@9LHTFLQLibertarian4wks4W
