    Says so pretty fucking explicitly in the founding document of your own nation.

    We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

    But you’re just some wack-ass authoritarian so what little can we really expect of you than to go full mask-off? Burn in hell, fascist

      You think I’m a fascist? You clearly don’t know me.

      Furthermore! Just because it says something in an old document, that doesn’t prove anything. Lots of old documents say lots of things. And additionally, the declaration of independence doesn’t even have legal weight. It’s not the constitution. And even furthermore, even if it did have legal weight, the important part would be the laws and their enforcement, not some nebulous axiomatic “”“rights”“”*

      Wait, do you think I’m anti-abortion or siding with the republicans here?
