There are “natural” God-given rights - the right of conscience, expression, self defense, right to the fruits of one’s labor etc. and there are “civil rights” -organized society created rights such as the right to vote, right to jury of ones peers, right to cross examine one’s accusers, etc.
In European socialistic states, man surrenders his natural rights in favor of civil rights that give him “better” protection of his health, safety and property. In America, we retain our natural rights and compact only for specific civil rights. In Europe, the common good overrides individual rights. In America, the individual is protected from majority will by his retained rights exclusive of government. (10th Amendment.) Of course, the Bill of Rights is actually a prohibition from government interference with retained rights.
It is unfortunate that many “educators” are liberal nitwits. Home school. Vote down all property tax raises “for the children”. Parents are being “grubered” every day.
