So any question or criticism, regardless of its legitimacy, about Israel is tantamount to being "anti-semitic"? How's that?

You're reading If i told you that there is no such thing as a GUARANTEED human right, would you agree with me? If you don't, could you name a guaranteed human right that is given to you at birth and can't be taken away?

So, babies don't have rights? Better tell that to the anti-abortionists! No doubt Helen Keller is the toast of child-abusers everywhere!

freeluncher ~ excuse me? Do you even know who Helen Keller was or what she accomplished? Your out of the ballpark comment came with a down rating. Care to backup your comment with something intelligent?
by gone on January 6th, 2008
I do not know or care who Helen Keller is, Madea. I just happen to disagree with her quoted comment, is that a crime? I fundamentally disagree that rights only belong to the strong. They belong to everyone or they belong to noone. The logical conclusion of her remark is that small children have no rights. I think that is nonsense. No offence meant.

freeluncher....rights belong to nobody except those willing to defend them

@freeluncher ~ Helen Keller became deaf and blind as an infant in the 19th century. Her parent's were advised to institutionalize her, which was the practice at that time. Instead, they found her a teacher after she had become basically a feral child. She and her teacher (2 women well over 100 years ago) were instrumental in creating schools (and rights!) for deaf and blind children. You took your own slant on the above quote, but it was leagues from what Keller meant.

Ok Common Sense, but do you not accept that this means that the weak, meaning children, the old, invalids etc etc have no rights? I cannot believe that is what you all mean.
Madea, thank you for enlightening me on who Helen Keller is. I still don't agree. Feral or near feral children are nor known for thier wisdom I'd have thought.
Sleep well.
