Yeah, but those types of statements don't bother me so much because they're clearly absolutely insane. It's the assertions that almost sound reasonable for a moment until you realize they're just as insane that scare me, because it's usually a generally logical person who's come to the ridiculous conclusion that, say, oral sex is a privilege, not a right.

Rights cannot be positive; they can only be negative.

We do not have a right to oral sex because that would require someone to provide it, and if no one is willing, then someone must be enslaved to provide it.
