Only people can have rights.

Look up rights in the dictionary.

  1. Something that is due to a person or governmental body by law, tradition, or nature.

Are you illiterate? I never said otherwise.

Are YOU illiterate? I never said you said otherwise.

I don't think that parses as a coherent English sentence.

Perhaps not for an editor of newsweek but I put several sentences into one because I am to tired to spell it all out. It makes sense.

The definition you gave from some dictionary or another is wrong. It's a line of "positive rights" BS.

Are YOU illiterate? I never said you said otherwise.

Then why did you repeat yourself?

Then you tried to write several sentences as one and wound up with none at all.

I'll quote it again, underlining the subject clause.

However, laws that prevent the legal sale of substances that take away people's ability to reason, to choose to stop using the drugs, to see reality, to recognize their kids as their kids and not a secret agent that they decapitate (actual event), or any other necessary inhibition to function as a responsible human.

That went, "However, laws that" yada yada (very lengthy yada yada), but you never actually got around to giving us a verb or an object.
