You know, I'm not so sure rocks even need rights. What's the worst thing we humans can do to a rock? Smash it, pulverize it, and grind it up into powder. But you know what? Eventually, after we humans have shot our wads and departed this planet, those little miniscule bits of rock will undergo the same geological processes that they were subjected to eons ago and, voila! New rocks! We can try our best to deny them their fundamental right of rockishness, but they'll win out in the end.
