[QUOTE="mightymouse, post: 3225088, member: 15253"] Some people are too stupid to understand the age-old idea that rights necessarily entail responsibilities. You have the right to free speech. It is also your responsibility not to abuse that right by yelling "Fire!" in a crowded theater when there is in fact no fire. You have the right to keep and bear arms. It is also your responsibility not to abuse that right by parading around in public with your little AR-15 pistol for all your admiring fans on You Tube to see, all the while scaring mothers and little children in a park where they thought they might find fun and joy. Instead, they found an attention-loving idiot with a juvenile and misguided agenda doing his best to "educate" the general public and "audit" the police response, whatever that idiotic term is supposed to mean. In our post-modern world, the "rights" of the people are trumpeted daily, including several rights not originally included in the U.S. Constitution. What has gotten lost in the modern debate over "rights" is the idea that rights necessarily entail responsibilities. The two must go hand-in-hand in a civil society. [/QUOTE]
