Where are our rights? 10/23/2011
It seems that the peaceful act of protesting is a right only held by ones own belief. The protestors in Sydney found that out today as police stepped in and ended the peaceful "Occupy Sydney" protest with their brutal unnecessary force. The laws of local council forbids the act of occupying premises around the Sydney City area and so the protestors had to be removed by the strong arm of our Government reinforcing that we as the people of a democratic society only have the right to do as we are told by our laws. Let me tell you about rights. There's no such thing as rights. They're imaginary. We made 'em up. Rights are an idea. They're just imaginary. But if you think you do have rights, let me ask you this, where do they come from? People say, 'they come from god. They're god given rights.' Awww fuck, the god excuse. The last refuge of a man with no answers and no argument, 'It came from god'. Anything we can't describe must have come from god. Personally, if your rights came from god, he would've given you the right for some food everyday, and he would've given you the right to a roof over your head. But let's say it's true. Let's say that god gave us these rights. Why would he give us a certain number of rights? The Bill of Rights of this country has 10 stipulations. Okay, 10 rights. And apparently god was doing sloppy work that week because we've had to ammend the bill of rights an additional 17 times. So god forgot a couple of things like slavery. Just fuckin' slipped his mind. But let's say, god gave us the original 10. He gave the British 13. The British bill of rights has 13 stipulations. The Germans have 29, the Belgians have 25, the Swedish have only 6, and some people in the world have NO RIGHTS AT ALL. What type of a fuckin' god damn god given deal is that? NO RIGHTS AT ALL? Why would god give different people in different countries a different number of rights? Boredom? Amusement? Bad arithemetic? Doesn't seem like divine planning to me. Sounds more like human planning. Sounds more like one group trying to control another group. In other words, business as usual in Australia. Sooner or later, the people in this country are going to realize the government doesn't give a fuck about them. The government doesn't care about you, or your children, or your rights, or your welfare or your safety. It simply doesn't give a fuck about you. It's interested in its own power. That's the only thing. Keeping it, and expanding it wherever possible.Personally, when it comes to rights, I think one of two things is true: either we have unlimited rights or we have no rights at all." I'm going with the later. So next time someone says "Hey, I have the right to say what I want to say" . Then your response can be" I don't like your opinion so I have the right to shoot you".
