Liberty is never an inborn right- it always comes with a price, usually a big one. The Founders knew that. Don't you get tired of being wrong. The Decl. of Independence says that liberty is an inborn right - from God! "...endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty..." Care to re-think?

Don't you get tired of being wrong. The Decl. of Independence says that liberty is an inborn right - from God! That and $3.60 will get you a latte at Starbucks. The only liberty you have a right to is liberty you can grab for yourself and defend.

And because that says so it is the case?
I thought that's what you said the Bible was for.
And since you're so fond of finding a single quote and thereby claiming it proves your entire proposition, how's this one from Jefferson: "The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."
Not very much like liberty is handed to people on a silver platter, is it?
