"Human rights in any society derive from a community's general sense of what is proper and what isn't. A government responds to that general sense that exists in the community by officially enshrining various of those "rights" in legal documents. The police and courts then enforce those laws accordingly."
Little Hawk, though I agree with you, do you think that the present lot of politicians, are: "Responding to that general sense"?
      Through propaganda in the media, introducing and exploiting their agendas? or just so corrupt that they've become 'the best lawmakers money can buy'?...and/or, changing our form of government and borders, without the consent of the people??

And the answer to your question, from another thread(EI, if you remember), is Emotional Immaturity.
