    A quick coda on “civil rights.”
    Once the metaphorical (or literal, in the case of the United States) social contract has been “signed,” natural rights (are supposed to) become codified as civil rights, as part of a fixed, knowable rule of law. Among the civil rights most commonly thought of as essential are those that pertain to justice, such as
    * The right to be responsible only for one’s own crimes
    * The right to a speedy and public trial
    * The right to an impartial jury
    * The right to be informed of the crime of which one is accused

    * The right to have legal representation
    * The right not to be tried twice for the same crime
    * The right not to be compelled to witness against oneself
    * The right to fair trial
    * The right to due process
    * The right to be free from cruel and unusual punishment
    * The right to be free from excessive fines
    * The right to habeas corpus
    * The right to be confronted with one’s accuser
    * The right to take those actions needed to prevent criminals from repeating crimes, within the bounds of what is required to do so.

    So open borders, marriage to a 2 year old or a animal is fine? Is execution cruel or usual? I see many things listed that are already recognized in other terms.

    What is the purpose of the list? Is it a personal declaration of independence and if so who will honor it?

    Too much salt in your diet is a bad thing.

    I appreciate returning my sarcasm in kind,

    This stemmed from the thread about governors, to help define and explain the use of “natural rights” in more detail without a thread derail.
