When did all you people forget you had rights? You talk about the government as if it isn't we the people, I think most of you are very uninformed and that is pretty disturbing. There should not be one person who isn't outraged by the picture in the first post, yet I see people trying to defend first amendment areas. It's disgusting.
It was a parable. But for the sake of argument. Liberty is a right Can you be deprived of liberty? Certainly. The limitation is that you should not be deprived of liberty without due process. And part of that due process is that the government can detain you without charge for a certain period of time.
There are limits on rights.

Wrong. Individuals have rights because the collective chooses to respect them. There have been many occasions in the history of the world that people did not have certain individual rights because the collective did not respect or support them, i.e. slavery.
On a Federal basis I have already conceded the point that my example was not meant to illustrate that driving is a right.....but an example of how a perceived right could be limited. And in some States of the Union, driving is a right.
Now how about you answer some questions I have posed.
