WOW! Just went through all of your replies since you've been here and you have replied on almost nothing but gun control/gun related threads.
That's a rather strange thing since people here usually have many interests and they make replies on a wide variety of issues.
You're just a one hit wonder aren't you.

Perhaps in the future you should consider acting like an adult instead of leading with a personal attack.
Your initial posting was an unwarranted personal attack on myself and others.
And of course when I refused to sink to your level of childish discourse you chose to continue your attack.
The fact is you are basing your attack on your false presumption of what I did not even mention.
Perhaps if you had tried an adult approach on the issue, I may have been more amiable to your comments. But you insisted on a hostile and boorish method of debate.

We have been invaded by "sockpuppets" and "meatpuppets".
It is election time. Check out:

Natural right, not civil right.

Why not something like: “God given natural and Civil rights?”
Those rights would fall under both classifications would they not?

Why not something like: God given natural and Civil rights?You're moving in the right direction, but natural rights are inherent (endowed/provided by our Creator) in all human beings simply because they're human beings and alive. However, an atheist wouldn't say their natural rights were endowed upon them by a Creator, would they? Yet they still have inherent natural rights so it's better to just say "natural rights".
And the Constitution
recognizes our
natural rights, it doesn't
grant them.
Civil rights, on the other hand, are granted, both by Constitutional Amendment and by legislation. Constitutional Amendments and Major Civil Rights Acts of Congress
Those rights would fall under both classifications would they not?
Which rights, specifically, are you talking about when you say "those" and what do you mean by "classifications"? Your question is very vague.

It is my firm belief that this nation is in serious trouble and arguing arcane but important issues like this distracts from what we should really be doing.
I agree with you that the founding documents only affirm our rights, not grant them. But the term of art these days is Civil rights thus the phrasing I proposed. We cannot cede certain words to the left Common sense, Civil rights and the like.
