I thought inalienable were rights of aliens.
Is our creator the source of rights in the declaration only or do you lump in the bill of rights also?
I’m not “lumping in” anything, just describing it from the legal definitions. The BOR points out what the government can’t do, otherwise that would be an infringement.
The government might not be able to remove ones unalienable rights, but they definitely could keep one from exercising them by sticking you in a hole or blowing ones brains out. In that frame of reference the people are at least able to deter or resist the inherent tendency of government towards tyranny (if they’re vigilant).
